Hi CB,
I'm not sure how many 35mm guys come here, or really even which forum to post this in. I'm interested in using our existing Dolby Cinema Sound Processor (CP55) to play audio from computers or DVD players.
Currently when we play a DVD or a BluRay disc in our theatre, we route the L/R from the RCAs on the device into a mixer, which then feeds two speakers behind our screen.
Our 35mm setup has full surround sound support, and when we want to play DVDs we simply disconnect the XLR connectors from the front left and right inputs, and connect the 'DVD Mixer' to the amp. We only get sound from front left and right, and we're missing out on the full features of our theater including The Voice (Of The Theatre, huge center horn), side fills, rear fills and the subwoofer.
This is the dolby processor we have:
I'd like to use the 'AUX' button to select the DVD/computer feed.
Here's the back of the unit (from the instruction manual):
So it just takes a line-level RCA input on L, C, R, S? Can I use one of these then?
I would be so happy.
