Default MX units used for surround processing?

Mixed results here. Some 2 channel video sources are mixed and encoded to use with Dolby ProLogic decoders. If you have a lot of these in your library it makes sense to use Dolby Prologic to decide them.

For normal 2 channel audio sources it’s a crapshoot. The Dolby Prologc decoder will take ambient and out of phase info and steer it to the rear channels. It does this in a manner that is somewhat unpredictable. Try it, you may like it on some things.
