foo dsp fsurround

foo dsp fsurround is a small Windows audio plugin that works hand-in-hand with the well-known audio player, foobar2000. This lightweight audio plugin is specifically developed for decoding Dolby ProLogic I/II compatible surround channels.

foobar2000 comes with support for a comprehensive package of features and configuration settings. Some of the notable ones include extensive file type support, volume normalization, playlist manager, UI customization preferences, bulk file operations (e.g. copy, move, rename), audio CD playback and ripping, as well as plugin support.

You can greatly extend foobar2000’s functionality with the aid of plugins, and foo dsp fsurround is just one of them that facilitates audio enhancement. Compared to effect plugins, it helps you translate Dolby ProLogic I/II compatible surround channels from stereo music. Effect plugins are only capable of performing simple copying actions of the front channels in order to generate surround or DSPs, which just implement the basic Dolby Surround/ProLogic functionality.

It doesn’t occupy too much space on the disk, thanks to its lightweight package. Worth noting is that you need to keep it in the same folder where foobar2000 is installed, in order to make sure you can deploy it and configure its settings.
