Orban/CRL is introducing the Optimod 8585 digital surround audio processor, and says it takes the Optimod 6300 two-channel processor and incorporates multichannel processing that reflects the latest psychoacoustic research into loudness perception.
The 8585 features two-band and five-band audio processing for surround-sound broadcasting, netcasting and mastering. Features such as compression ratio controls and a look-ahead peak limiter make the unit suitable for mastering audio in broadcast productions, as well as productions intended for media such as DVD and BluRay.
A third-generation CBS Loudness Controller helps retain audiences by controlling subjective loudness and annoyance. The controller works in both two-band and five-band modes. It limits subjectively perceived loudness to a broadcaster-set threshold, preventing audience irritation, according to the company.
