Digital Delay For Application in Surround Sound

6.0 Conclusion

The overall design principle for the digital delay was a success and proved to work in the manner intended, given the limitations of time and financial restraints as outlined in the discussion.

As a surround sound processor the subjective testing gave favourable results, and the system compared equally with existing systems. The processor may not surpass other systems, on a commercial basis, but it has the ability to match them if more work was carried out. If it could decode for both AMBISONICS and DOLBY SURROUND SOUND as well as the existing method, then I believe it would become commercially viable.
