Minnetonka Audio is to preview the SurCode encoder/decoder for Dolby Pro Logic II at NAB, providing Dolby-certified Dolby Pro Logic II encoding and Pro Logic II, Pro Logic IIx and Pro Logic IIz decoding of up to eight channels of audio.
Designed to produce surround-ready mixes in real time, SurCode for Dolby Pro Logic II v3 will be available as a single, cross-platform installer for RTAS, AAX, or VST, or as a stand-alone product.
The system’s monitoring and loudness measurement tools and built-in encoding/decoding features enable mixes to be optimised for all playback situations, regardless of whether the LtRt is decoded into surround or remains in stereo mode as delivered. Real-time loudness metrics are displayed for the multichannel source, the decoded LtRt multichannel content, or the undecoded stereo LtRt stem, ensuring that all are ‘CALMpliant.’
