Aud-X is the kind of a break-through in surround sound that was once made for video by Divx/Xvid more>>
For a long time people converted DVDs to Divx/Xvid with mp3 stereo sound. We have all felt that part of the orginal masterpiece was gone forever (the surround sound).
The main Aud-X project task was to bring to people an easy technology for encoding Divx/Xvid movies with 5.1 sound the same way they used to do it with the simple mp3 stereo encoders. Since Aud-X 5.1 sounds great at 128 kbps and is compatible with AVI ? you can reencode DVDs the same way you are used to, but with full surround sound.
In fact Aud-X 5.1 is a whole set of software tools compatible with Windows system aiming at 5.1 compression for movies and music. It allows for very effective and easy encoding of surround (5.1) sound that is compatible with the AVI file container. In addition, the decoder is based on DirectShow interface, thus may be used in any Windows system media player supporting DirectShow filters.
The great feature is backwards mp3 compatibility for devices not supporting Aud-X format and real-time AC3 transcoding within the DirectShow filter for external home theatre systems.
Main features:
- Dolby Digital compatibility. Designed to work with stand alone home movie theater amplifiers (AC3 in/out compatibility)
- Full scalability. Aud-X track can be played on any speaker and sound card set-up. You can use stereo speakers (by switching the DirectShow decoder to stereo mode), use your PC 5.1 speakers set, or hook your PC to the home movie theater. If one day you will upgrade your sound system ? it will cost just to change the decoder setting to enjoy surround sound,
- Mp3 backwards compatibility for older software and hardware. On machines without Aud-X decoder installed, users will still be able to enjoy stereo or mono mp3 sound (depending on the encoded Aud-X quality option),
- AVI compatible. This function makes Aud-X perfect companion for Divx/Xvid encoded movies. It must be emphasized that Aud-X works good at 128 kbps (traditional mp3 bitrate for movie encoding),
- Avi, Ogg, Matroska, Mpeg containers compatibility,
- Complete solution. Aud-X comes with a complete set of tools for movie encoding and playback. We also support users with ?How to? guides at www.aud-x.com
- Wide range of encoding bitrates. Aud-X can create streams ranging from 80 to 192 kbits. You can choose preferred quality accordingly to your requirements
- 80 kbps - world record breaking compression bitrate for 5.1 sound. Such a low surround sound bitrate allows for successful multichanel Internet audio streaming,
- Easy to use interface. Designed for non experienced PC users not, only multimedia professionals and software freaks,
- Web site support. FAQ?s and HOW_TO?s at www.aud-x.com
- High sound quality. Tests show that Aud-X outperforms other multichannel encoding technologies at comparable bitrates,
- Built-in Pseudo Surround module. You can choose to listen to your old mp3 stereo records with Aud-X DirectShow decoder. Stereo sound will be converted on the fly to 5.1 format with sophisticated algorithm that adds new spatial feeling to your tunes / movies.

Fraunhofer MP3 Surround Player 2.0
MP3, the world’s most popular audio compression format, goes multi-channel. more>> MP3 Surround can be used in various ways. Internet radio stations, for example, could deliver their programs in surround audio using the same infrastructure as before.
Or music download shops could offer realistic live recordings of concerts, so everybody can enjoy multi-channel audio at home turning it into a concert hall or, if combined with video, into a cinema.
MP3 Surround supports high-quality multi-channel sound at bit rates comparable to those currently used to encode stereo MP3 material, resulting in files half the size of common compressed surround formats. At the same time, the new format offers complete backward compatibility to any existing MP3 software and hardware devices.

ATSurround Processor for Winamp 0.1.6
Extract the encoded surround information for playback on a 5.1 PC system more>> Extract the encoded surround information for playback on a 5.1 PC system
The ATSurround Processor is a DSP plugin for the Winamp audio player
Today many songs found on MP3s, CDs, etc. have surround information encoded. Even when played on a 5.1 PC system, the surround channels may not be extracted from the audio as it is processed from start to finish as a 2 channel source. What you get as a result is simply many speakers playing exactly the same sound, which does not enhance the audio. A surround decoder such as the ATSurround Processor is required to extract the encoded surround information for playback.
The process of extracting surround channels and routing it to the appropriate speaker is known as matrix decoding. Hardware and software decoders are available for this purpose. The ATSurround Processor is a software decoder designed to work as a plugin in the foobar2000 and Winamp players. Multichannel output capable soundcard and speakers are required.
The Headphone mode allows the listening of audio sources which sound like theyre really coming from a live 5 point surround system. Music no longer sounds like its "inside" your head, listening fatigue is thus reduced. Perfect when you dont want to disturb anybody around you by using headphones, but dont want to sacrifice the surround decoding capability of ATSurround.
ATSurround Processor is also capable of performing matrix encoding. The Processor receives multichannel audio and matrixes it into stereo. This stereo output may be distributed via any 2 channel medium, such as CD-Audio and MP3 or direct to an external audio receiver which performs audio surround decoding, useful when the receiver is connected using a stereo cable.
Main features:
- Reproduces surround sound information present in many stereo audio material
- Headphone mode allows listening of audio in virtual surround
- Compatible with Dolby or similar processors
- Makes full use of your 5.1 speaker systems
- Bass redirection for discrete 5.1 satellite systems
- Surround channel delay
- Channel amplitude trim
- Converts multichannel audio into surround encoded stereo audio
System requirements:
- Winamp version 5.xx
- Microsoft DirectX 9.0c
- Multichannel capable speakers and soundcard (a 5.1 system is recommended)
- Stereo audio source (eg. MP3, CD-Audio, etc). Decoder only processes sources with 2 channels of audio
- Headphones for experiencing ATSurround Headphone mode
Enhancements:
- Added 10dB LFE boost.
- Includes new 5 channel ATSurround Encode2.
- Also includes new ATSurround Headphone Movie mode.
- Increased accuracy of ATSurround Headphone decoding.
- Plug-in no longer requires CPU with SSE support
