Surround sound is the inevitable future of broadcasting. With home
theater creating a more demanding and sophisticated audience, and
with the progression to HD broadcast a regulatory necessity, broadcasters
are faced with the need to make the transition to surround broadcast
and production.
The Surround Broadcast Conference, to be held in Las Vegas
on Sunday, April 18, will address the critical issues facing the
broadcast facility transitioning to surround. The expert presenters
at the conference will cover such topics as:
Surround workflow and infrastructure--the recipe for success
includes consideration of studio interconnections, audio storage,
Dolby Digital, Dolby E, metadata and the transmission chain signal
flow. Learn the common mistakes to avoid and troubleshooting techniques.
Surround monitoring--speaker placement and calibration,
virtual surround headphone options, surround metering.
Surround mixing--effective use of the surround field,
surround mixing "dos and don'ts," mixing for fold-down and portability,
including discussions with leading sound mixers.
Practical miking for surround production.
Hardware and software for broadcast production.
The Surround Broadcast Conference is the must-attend event
for broadcast engineers and managers charged with readying their
facility for surround. Through presentations and panel discussions,
interaction with sponsoring manufacturers and networking with
their peers, conference attendees will gain the knowledge needed
to confidently begin the transition to surround
