Abstract

Cinemas and movie theatres have specific room acoustic requirements that are well understood in the industry. Recent technologies such as Dolby Atmos and DTS:X provide an exciting spatial audio experience using a high number of audio tracks dynamically rendered to loudspeakers located in both the overhead and lateral planes. But what happens when the same venue is utilized for both motion picture screenings and acoustic performances? In this paper, active acoustics processing is integrated into existing cinematic surround sound architecture to provide a unique solution that promises flexibility rather than compromise. Design objectives, limitations, and performance of the integrated systems are reviewed.
