Dolby CP45
With the Dolby CP45, you can now afford to install a Dolby cinema
processor in any theatre--and put the prestigious Dolby logo up on the
marquee. This means that all your audiences will hear Dolby soundtracks
as they were meant to be heard, and keep coming back for more.
Second Best Is No Longer Good Enough
While Dolby has made high-quality, four-channel sound practical in
far more theatres than ever before, smaller houses still resort to mono, or in some instances, inferior stereo. But today, with digital sound in first-run theatres and surround sound in millions of homes, audiences expect first-rate multi-channel sound wherever they see a film. With the CP45, you can meet those expectations and offer the real thing even in a small theatre on a tight budget.
Real Dolby Sound For Less
Unlike other units in its price range, the CP45 features authentic Dolby noise reduction processing--exactly the same circuitry, in fact, that is used in all current Dolby cinema processors. The four-channel decoder (left, center, right, surround) is
also a no-compromise Dolby design.
As a result, the CP45 precisely complements the techniques used in the preparation of thousands of Dolby films. That means better sound--real Dolby sound--in your theatre for no more than you'd pay for a lesser processor.
Near-Digital Quality at a Fraction of the Cost
With the CP45, any theatre can afford Dolby SR, the advanced four-channel analog process with near-digital clarity and fidelity. Real Dolby processing for SR soundtracks comes standard with the CP45--and SR releases are more plentiful than ever (there's an SR track standard on every Dolby Digital print).
How It's Done
The CP45 benefits from economical ICs developed in response to the wide demand for Dolby technologies, and from a simplified power supply design. Significant savings also result from a new approach to speaker equalization. Each screen channel in the CP45 provides seven EQ bands operating in conjunction with tuneable high- and low-frequency shelving controls. An adjustable electronic crossover within the processor may be used to biamplify the screen channels. The result in a theatre with proper acoustics and modern speakers is smooth response to the international standard curve. Older speakers also benefit from having their response more gently optimized, thereby avoiding undesirable side-effects.
The Dolby Edge
The CP45 comes with the unrivaled support of Dolby Laboratories. Hundreds of technicians worldwide have been factory trained in the installation and maintenance of Dolby equipment. Emergency technical assistance is available on call, as is backup from
the most experienced distributor network in the industry. The CP45 is the only cinema processor in its price range backed by a 20 year history of making films sound better.
Can you afford to do without it?
With the CP45, it's no longer a question of whether you can afford to install a real Dolby processor: it's a question of whether you can afford not to. For the answer, contact your authorized Dolby cinema equipment distributor.
*While the Dolby DA20 digital adapter can be used with
the CP45, the Dolby CP500 processor with built-in digital decoding is the more cost-effective choice for theatres intending to equip for Dolby Digital.
