Renaissance SFX Library

Presenting .... the first sound effects library in the world that has been encoded and produced entirely in the Dolby Surround standard.

The Renaissance SFX Library offers awesome fully dynamic sound in a real 3D listening environment. The Dolby Surround encoding process makes it possible for a regular stereo source to deliver all four channels of sound.

These sounds extend far beyond simple panning or standard MS techniques - you will hear complete sets of effects that literally move along the speakers and bathe you in true audio from all directions.

In addition, you will be able to control the placement and movement of sounds in the different channels in order to recreate just the right audio environment for your productions.

The Renaissance SFX Library can be used in a regular stereo environment, but you will be even more impressed with the way a full surround sound system demonstrates the quality, richness and versatility of these recordings. We recommend the use of a Dolby Surround Pro-Logic Decoder in order that you may take advantage of the library's full depth and capacity. This initial collection of seven CDs offers an exciting variety of ambiences, isolated sounds, voices, musical instruments and elements, all specifically produced to provide the most realistic four channel sound experience available today.
