Seattle CBS affilliate KIRO-TV has reached a new milestone, marking a full year of broadcasting in 5.1 surround sound for 24 hours a day. The station’s use of Neural Audio’s MultiMerge, 5225 DownMix and 5225 UpMix technologies has earned it a “Broadcast Brain” award from the company.

Neural’s MultiMerge uses automatic content detection to merge 2.0 and 5.1 sources by categorizing the spatial characteristics of the source material, allowing an uninterrupted stream of 5.1 content regardless of the content origin.
