9、cture*(Question ITU-R 58/6) (1998-2005-2011) Scope Recommendation ITU-R BR.1384 specifies the track assignment, recording characteristics and level alignment for multi-channel audio sound recordings. The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) that one multi-channel stereophonic sound system

10、 has been defined in Recommendation ITU-R BS.775; b) that Recommendation ITU-R BS.775 Multi-channel stereophonic sound system with and without accompanying picture, recommends the use of five reference recording signals for left (L), right (R), centre (C) channels for the front, and left surround (L

11、S) and right surround (RS) channels for the side/rear, with an additional low frequency effects (LFE) channel; c) that Recommendation ITU-R BR.779 Operating practices for digital television recording, contains specifications for the allocation of audio channels on 4-track digital television recordin

12、g; d) that many regions exchange television programmes which include multi-channel sound; e) that a single set of technical parameters such as assignment of multi-channel audio signals to tracks, level conditions, etc. is needed in order to avoid operational problems, recommends 1 that for the recor

13、ding and exchange of multi-channel sound programme material with or without accompanying picture, the track assignment, recording characteristics and level alignment should be in accordance with Annex 1; *Radiocommunication Study Group 6 made editorial amendments to this Recommendation in 2001 in ac

14、cordance with Resolution ITU-R 44. *This Recommendation should be brought to the attention of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) Committee TC 100. * International programme exchange is defined as the transmission of television or sound programme material (or components thereof) amon

15、g professional parties in different countries. It should be based on internationally agreed and widely employed technical standards or operating practices, except by prior bilateral agreement among the parties involved. If there are no such bilateral agreements, parties exchanging television or soun

16、d programme material are urged to follow the audio channel/signal to track assignments described in this Recommendation. 2 Rec. ITU-R BR.1384-2 2 that the physical label on the recording media, shipping or storage container should indicate which mapping has been used on the recording media. Annex 1

17、1 Signal definitions The audio signals to be recorded for the multi-channel sound programme are designated according to Recommendation ITU-R BS.775: 3/2 format (preferred format for multi-channel sound, also usable for 2/2) L left channel/signal C centre channel/signal R right channel/signal LS left

18、 surround channel/signal (see Note 1) RS right surround channel/signal (see Note 1) LFE additional low frequency channel/signal (see Note 2) 3/1 format (see Note 3) L left channel/signal C centre channel/signal R right channel/signal MS monophonic surround channel/signal (see Note 4) The mixed audio

19、 signals to be recorded are designated as follows: 2/0 format (two channel stereophony) A complete mix left total channel/signal B complete mix right total channel/signal LTM alignment signal level 18 dB rel2. In regions which follow SMPTE guidelines, and where the recording format is a digital form

20、at with a linear resolution of 16 bits or more, the level alignment rules given in SMPTE recommended practice RP155 2004 “Audio levels for digital audio records on digital television tape recorders” are used. alignment signal level 20 dB rel digital clipping.6 Pink noise test signals Pink noise test

21、 signals, if present, shall be at equal levels on all channels. Excepting the LFE channel, if each channel of pink noise is reproduced at the same acoustic sound pressure level at the central listening position, then the relative balance of the programme audio channels should be correctly reproduced

22、. In the case of the LFE channel, the pink noise test signal is intended to be reproduced at an acoustic sound pressure level (within the LFE channel 120 Hz passband) of +10 dB relative to any of the other individual channels. Note that due to the limited bandwidth of the LFE channel, if the acousti

23、c level produced by the LFE pink noise is measured with a wideband sound pressure level meter, the reading will not measure +10 dB with respect to the other channels. The acoustic level of the LFE channel should measure +10 dB within its 120 Hz bandwidth when measured with a frequency selective mete

24、r. 2Relative to the digital clipping level, indicated with an IEC quasi-peak programme level meter. 3In the future, a correctly loudness-normalized signal may contain quasi-PPM levels in excess of those permitted by Recommendation ITU-R BS.645. 6 Rec. ITU-R BR.1384-2 Appendix 1 to Annex 1 A 12-track

25、 sound recording format for video recording of a 3/2 multi-channel sound programme should have the following assignment of sound tracks shown in Table 3, which follow the assignment in Table 2 for the first group of 8 tracks.

27、ders (DTRs) Table 1, case 11d. (2)In the case of programmes using the 3/1 multi-channel sound format, the MS (3 dB) monophonic surround signal should be placed on both tracks 5 and 6. This allows a programme with a single surround channel to be treated as a programme with two surround channels. The

28、MS (3 dB) signal will be reproduced out of both the LS and RS loudspeakers, with a relative level of 3 dB with respect to the front channels. The combined power into the room will be the correct relative level of 0 dB. Appendix 2 to Annex 1 In some areas, slightly different track assignments are in

29、use. Care should be taken to always examine the tape label to determine the exact assignment which is used. The following examples are known. In the United States of America, the following channel assignment may sometimes be used when the recording does not carry a 2-channel stereo compatible signal
