Voice Over Mixer - SURROUND

Overview

The Voice Over Mixer - Surround is a Processor for combining a 5.1 main program signal with up to six mono voice signals. It provides input conditioning, voice-over processing, mix-minus generation, downmixing, matrix mixing, level control, true peak limiting, output conditioning, and measurement.

The Processor is intended for surround voice-over workflows where a main 5.1 program and two mono voice sources need to be combined and delivered in multiple output formats.
