CHANNEL ASSIGNING DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MULTICHANNEL REPRODUCTION SYSTEM

摘要

A channel assigning device for a multichannel reproduction system containing loudspeakers measures the distances between each of the loudspeakers and each of the measurement positions on the left and right of, in front of, and behind the listening position. From the distances to the left and right measurement positions of the listening position, the left and right positions of each loudspeaker with respect to the listening position are determined; from the distances to the front and rear measurement positions of the listening position, the front and rear positions of each loudspeaker with respect to the listening position are determined. From the combination of the left, right, front, and rear positions, the relative position of each loudspeaker with respect to the listening position is determined. According to the determined relative position, a channel for the reproduction signal is assigned to each of the loudspeakers.
