Stereo to 5.1 / 7.1 Surround Phaseless Multi-Seat Automotive Upmixer
Near-identical sound in every seat
Highest Quality
Soundstage
Award-winning
phaseless upmix DSP
Optimized for ADI's SHARC platfrom
Legacy upmixers have failed in automotive because they drastically alter the upmixed sound which sounds bad in cars. And tuning to the driver via delays and levels fails to delivery a quality sound stage to every seat.
PerfectSurround's unique phaseless upmixer does not alter the sound: nothing is added, deleted or sonically modified in Penteo's upmix DSP.
Automotive listeners are bathed in the highest quality immersive soundstage possible, with our post-upmix advanced automotive tools delivering near-identical sound performance to every seat.
Premium phaseless soundstage
PerfectSurround's phaseless upmixer brings studio-quality audio to automotive with the biggest and most believable listening space and improved bass for all listeners simultaneously.
PerfectSurround's solid and stable center channel immerses every seat with a wider and deeper soundfield across all frequencies.
All frequency response coloration is completely eliminated due to PerfectSurround's phaseless DSP.
Multi-seat
sound
PerfectSurround Automotive adds phase-equalization instead of delays post-upmix to eliminate any near-side biases in the car.
We correct for all acoustic issues outside of the upmixer releated to distance, delays and the creation of a phantom center for each seat.
This results in a near-identical sound experience for every seat location across all frequencies.
Optimized for
automotive manufacturers
PerfectSurround Automotive's upmixer and multi-seat tools make tuning faster, easier and repeatable.
Our software licensing models are flexible to support any Automotive OEM and Car aftermarket requirements.
We provide the software, documentation and support and are flexible to your needs ensuring partnership success.
PerfectSurround DSP Powers the Penteo Upmix Audio Plugin
In film, TV and gaming, sound creators and designers use upmix audio plugins to convert stereo to Surround, Atmos, Auro3D, DTSX and Ambisonics formats. Because of broadcast, all formats must also downmix cleanly back to the original stereo.
Nothing is added, deleted or sonically modified in PerfectSurround's phaseless DSP making it the only DSP that does not colorize the sound. Therefore, very Penteo upmix downmixes perfectly back to the original source, 100% ITU.
Most major film, broadcast/streaming and gaming studios rely on Penteo for upmixing/downmixing sound.
Penteo is used by content creators, sound designers and composers in 50+ countries.
PerfectSurround Lossless DSP
Nothing is sonically added, modified or removed from the original source in PerfectSurround’s award-winning phaseless upmixer. Our unique DSP divides content into common, intermediate and differntial signals so they can be steered between front, side and rear speakers. Because of the sonic clarity with zero tonal coloration in our DSP, every upmix is treated uniquely yet remains faithful to the original source. PerfectSurround is easily optimized to any car or seating configuration.
Three Center Extraction Modes
Our Center extraction modes provide maximum control over how sound energy is put into the center channel. Default mode blends phantom/discrete into one channel which is ideal for all music types. Discrete creates the most focused center image,. Composite enhances the center image if delays are being used.
Precise Bass Management
By automatically phase-aligning the center, sub and front low frequency speakers, additional low frequency punch is heard in every car seat. Four LFE controls manage how low frequency effects are distributed across channels.
All Formats Supported
We upmix to every Dolby Surround format including 3.1 LCR, 4.1 Quad, and 5.1 / 7.1 Surround. All formats can be implemented without a LFE/sub-woofer channel. Quad mode supports cars with no center channel and LCR mode is for cars without rear speakers.
Automatic Setup
Once Center/Side/Rear high-pass filter frequencies and the measurements to the driver's seat are entered into the Setup Panel, PerfectSurround automatically delivers the optimum channel mix for each seat in the car.
Upmix Channel Control
Exercise total artistic freedom over the sound distribution in a car using three adjustment faders which alter the balance between Center, Side and Rear channels. Swictch beween RHD/LHD layouts, bypass at the click of a button.
Advanced Automotive Tuning
Finish your tuning post-upmix with PerfectSurround's advanced controls. Set levels, steering frequency limits, filter limits and delay controls. Filter limits act similar to delays, but optimize mulitple car seats simultaneously.
Licensing
Available as an OEM software code port where PerfectSurround provides all software - including installers, user control panels and API - to our partners for them to deploy our software to their platform of-choice.
