Mac Version of ProLogic® II Encoder Ships
SurCode™ for Dolby® PL II OS X is Minnetonka Audio’s First Mac Product.
Minnetonka, MN (7/28/04) — Minnetonka Audio Software has announced shipment of its
first software application for the Macinstosh OS X platform: Surcode Dolby Pro Logic II.
Like the Frontline award winning PC version, SurCode PL II for OS X allows broadcasters,
game developers, video producers, and audio professionals everywhere to easily encode
surround sound into stereo delivery formats for television, games, cable programming,
music applications, and many other media.
The simple, straight forward SurCode interface accepts up to six 32,44.1, 48kHz PCM audio
files, in WAV or AIFF formats. The files are then loaded as sources and encoded into an
Lt/Rt file, compatible with millions of decoders around the world. Comprehensive
monitoring facilities allow auditioning of both source and encoded audio. Individual
channels may be soloed and muted and start and stop points may be specified.
SurCode Dolby Pro Logic II for OS X is now available directly from Minnetonka Audio at
http://www.surcode.com and from authorized SurCode dealers worldwide. Both the Mac
and PC SurCode Pro Logic II versions are priced at $495USD.
About Dolby Pro Logic II:
Dolby Pro Logic II encoding is the world’s fastest-growing matrix surround technology,
multiplexing five channels of audio into a two-channel, stereo-compatible signal. On
playback, the Dolby Pro Logic II decoder in your receiver derives five full-range channels,
relying on amplitude and phase differences between the channels of the stereo signal.
Not only can Pro Logic II be decoded by virtually every Dolby Digital home theater system
sold today, but media encoded in Dolby Pro Logic II is backwards compatible with the
millions of Dolby Pro Logic receivers and decoders in use worldwide.
Pro Logic II is a product of Dolby Laboratories, Inc. For more information, visit:
