Lexicon QLI-32 Immersion Processor

The Lexicon QLI-32 Immersion Processor provides an immersive sound experience within budget. Intelligent and flexible, this cinema processor is designed to deliver up to 32 channels of surround sound. For an immersive and life-like sound experience, the QLI-32 is the smart solution for any cinema.

The Lexicon QLI-32 Immersion Processor is fully compatible with existing cinema processors. The new Lexicon QLI-32 interfaces with a theater's media source and existing cinema processor to provide a multi-dimensional listening experience with left, center, right, surround, rear and height channels, all via Lexicon's proprietary Quantum Logic Immersion surround-processing technology. In doing so, the Lexicon QLI-32 provides theaters with a cost-efficient and easily deployed upgrade path to significantly-improved immersive cinematic sound.

The Lexicon QLI-32 utilizes the exclusive Quantum Logic technology to provide up to 32 channels of immersive surround-sound audio over BLU link from any mono stereo, 5.1- or 7.1-channel program material. The Lexicon QLI-32 uses exclusive signal processing techniques to actively analyze the acoustical information in the audio mix and re-create a full three-dimensional sonic environment with width, depth and height by identifying and positioning objects in the sound field – all without adding elements to the original mix. Because the Lexicon QLI-32 works with existing audio systems, installation costs are reduced and any stereo or multi-channel content can be made immersive.

The Lexicon QLI-32 features an 8-channel analog 25-pin connector, two 8-channel AES RJ-45 inputs, a BLU link (2 x RJ-45) input and a BLU link (2 x RJ-45) output. It also provides an Ethernet port and RJ-45 control connections. The Lexicon QLI-32 provides Auto EQ per SMPTE 202 and offers 1/3-octave graphic EQ for each of its 32 output channels as well as parametric low-frequency EQ. The Lexicon QLI-32 can be easily configured via its web-based interface and its simple front-panel control layout provides ready indication of operational status. Measuring 1U rack space high, the Lexicon QLI-32 installs easily into an equipment rack.

Quantum Logic Immersion uses specialized algorithms to extract signal and reverberant streams from the original recording. Individual voices and instruments, as well as reverberant spatial information, are identified and then re-authored into a precise multichannel soundfield. QLI combines the individual signal streams using patented filter bank technology and psychoacoustic modeling to create an immersive multichannel listening experience with exceptional clarity, detail and image specificity.
