UNWRAP BACKGROUND From kitchen to cinema T oday's music has to be purposed for a number of different reproduction situations, from a mono kitchen radio over a CD stereo system to a full size cinema.
UNWRAP -TDM / 3 E E N N G G L L I I S S H H Using the additive approach, UnWrap preserves the Left and Right channels bit transparent all the way down to the LSB of a 24 bit input. If the original stereo-mix is later requested, it can be obtained using only these two channels.
Bit T ransparency When 0% L/R processing is selected, input trims and output levels are at 0dB, the inputs are bit transparently cloned to the L Front and R Front outputs. MAIN P AGE Input trims are provided to carefully match the L/R balance. If working from analog tape, adjust balance with a 1kHz calibration tone.
UNWRAP -TDM / 5 E E N N G G L L I I S S H H Now adjust the Decorrelation T one and EQ parameters. T uning of the surround parameters is an iterative process and should include the delay settings as well. D-MIX P AGE The downmix feature allows the user to check for stereo compatibility .
E E N N G G L L I I S S H H 6/ UNWRAP -TDM Global Plug-In Controls KEYBOARD COMMANDS The TDM versions of UNWRAP supports keyboard commands for certain functions.
UNWRAP -TDM / 7 E E N N G G L L I I S S H H Main INPUT TRIM Left/right Input T rims Range: -12dB to 0dB Input level adjustment of the left/right channels. L/R PROCESSING L/R Processing Parameter range: 0 - 100% Determines the processing amount for the left and right front signals.
Center Contour Style Parameter range: Off and a selection of styles. Select between different styles as processing for the center channel output. Reference Level Parameter range: -25 to 0dB Set the Ref. Level control at the approximate reference level of the input signal.
UNWRAP -TDM / 9 E E N N G G L L I I S S H H For Mid 1 and Mid 2 filters select between filter types: Parametric and Notch. Freq Press Freq and use Faders 1 to 4 to adjust frequency for each of the four bands.
E E N N G G L L I I S S H H 10 / UNWRAP -TDM Surround Contour Style Parameter range: Off and a selection of styles. Select between different styles as processing for the surround channels output. Reference level Range: -25 to 0dB Set the Ref. Level control at the approximate reference level of the Input signal.
UNWRAP -TDM / 11 E E N N G G L L I I S S H H EQ The EQ for the Surround channel features four -band parametric EQ with high- and low-pass filters switchable between Notch, Parametric, Shelving and Cut filters. Basic operation • Select Freq, Gain or T ype to access the same parameter for the four EQ bands.
E E N N G G L L I I S S H H 12 / UNWRAP -TDM Range for the Parametric filter: Lo BW : 0.1oct to 4oct Mid1 BW : 0.1oct to 4oct Mid2 BW : 0.1oct to 4oct Hi BW : 0.
UNWRAP -TDM / 13 E E N N G G L L I I S S H H The total delay on an output channel is the normal ms delay setting, PLUS the sample delay setting. The actual time a delay set in samples varies depending on running sample rate. E.g. if you are running 48kHz, a 48 samples delay equals 1ms, and at 96kHz it equals 0.
E E N N G G L L I I S S H H 14 / UNWRAP -TDM D-MIX DOWNMIX LEVELS The downmix feature allows you to check the UnWrap settings for stereo compatibility . Downmix levels should match the settings for the external downmix device. Presets are per default set to the following values that match the A TSC A/52 standard: From L/R : -3.
UNWRAP -TDM / 15 E E N N G G L L I I S S H H Preset Management TC's comprehensive file based preset architecture makes archiving presets a simple process. This allows you to organize your presets the way you find most comfortable for your workflow , and to exchange presets with other users, no matter the platform or application.
E E N N G G L L I I S S H H 16 / UNWRAP -TDM DEF AUL T PRESET LOCA TIONS The following locations will describe where you can find the UnWrap presets. The pre- sets are stored in a folder that is uniqu.
UNWRAP -TDM / 17 E E N N G G L L I I S S H H The generated SysEx/MIDI preset file needs to be placed in the default UNWRAP Preset folder (at the root level; sub-folders are not considered). The file needs to have either the extension ".syx" (for example: MyPresets.
E E N N G G L L I I S S H H 18 / UNWRAP -TDM COMP ARE SETTINGS WITH A/B MEM FUNCTION With the A/B compare function you can easily compare different parameter settings when you work with your music. Y ou have two buttons: the "Mem" and the "A/B" button.
UNWRAP -TDM / 19 E E N N G G L L I I S S H H P ARAMETER LOCK A T PRESET RECALL The parameter lock function allows you to lock the Dry Level, In Level and Out Level, from changing when you change preset.
E E N N G G L L I I S S H H 20 / UNWRAP -TDM SETUP EXAMPLE This is an example of how to setup UnWrap on a stereo track in Pro T ools. 1. Go to: Setup - I/O 2. Add a set of 5.1 outputs. In the example below we have renamed the outputs to: “Surround Output”.
UNWRAP -TDM / 21 E E N N G G L L I I S S H H 4. Click “Add” to the following common warning: 5. Now select the Surround Output that you created in step 2.
