| Introducing the Next Generation of Broadcast |
The future of broadcast is here: the new Dolby® Pulse technology delivers high-quality multichannel content to TVs, computers, mobile phones, and more. Dolby Pulse is the ideal HE AAC solution for bandwidth-critical services like next-generation HDTV, IPTV, cable, and satellite services. It provides broadcasters with the capability to broadcast stereo and 5.1-channel audio, occupying the lowest bandwidth while maintaining high audio quality. And because it includes Dolby metadata, Dolby Pulse is the one HE AAC solution that eliminates the need for a stereo simulcast with a 5.1 broadcast, further reducing bandwidth. Dolby Pulse coding can be used throughout the broadcast chain, from content creation all the way to the home. When every bit counts, Dolby Pulse delivers.
At the 2009 NAB Show, April 20–23, Dolby staff will be demonstrating new products and solutions with Dolby Pulse capability. |

| Skywalker Sound Finds Creative Uses for the Dolby DP600 |
As the Dolby® DP600 Program Optimizer approaches its second year on the market, it continues to develop a widening base of users. Several users are finding unique ways to apply the powerful audio processing capabilities of the DP600 for their particular needs. While the unit's automated file-based loudness analysis and correction makes it an ideal component in the preparation of broadcast content, it is beginning to be used for content creation, as well. We spoke with Doug Ford, Engineering Supervisor at the legendary Skywalker Sound facility in Northern California, to get a better idea how this is happening in real-world productions. He provided valuable insight into the company's initial decision to use the DP600, and how the studio has expanded its use in productions since the acquisition. |
