Analyze VPI's  -  MatrixScope

In a two-channel environment the MatrixScope provides a visual display of the side effects one has to consider if the two channels are processed by a matrix surround - decoder.

The signals of all four-output channels of the decoder are displayed corresponding to their direction and in accordance with the standard reference positioning of loudspeakers in a 3/2 stereo setup. Impulses are displayed as a peak-envelope. A second display monitors the dominance between the four channels, which is detected and processed by the decoder.

MatrixScope offers assistance for optimizing the main directivity of surround-coded down-mixes and it is an indispensable tool for verifying the matrix-decoder compatibility after adjusting the stereo panorama of the recording.

The MatrixScope is part of the Cube-Tec Analyzer package , a family of real-time visualizing analysis tools that include: SpectroGraph, PhaseScope and ZoomAnalyzer.
