SurCode for Dolby Pro Logic II version 3 is AAX for use in Pro Tools 10's 32 bit architecture or Pro Tools 11's 64 bit environment. Also integrated into version 3 is Minnetonka Audio's industry standard loudness measurement technology. Real-time loudness metrics are displayed for the source multichannel content, LoRo stream or the un-decoded stereo LtRt stem, insuring that all are CALM compliant. SurCode for Dolby Pro Logic II monitoring and loudness measurement tools and built-in encoding/decoding features enable mixes to be optimized for all playback situations, regardless of whether the LtRt is decoded into surround or remains in stereo mode as delivered.
