Frequently Asked Questions
How does the QLI-32 enhance immersive sound in a theater environment?
The QLI-32 adds up to 32 channels of Quantum Logic Immersion surround processing to an existing cinema processor. It creates overhead and immersive effect channels without requiring the cinema processor to be replaced, making immersive sound retrofits cost-effective.
What types of source material does the QLI-32 handle without altering the original mix?
The QLI-32 works transparently with mono, stereo, 5.1, and 7.1 content, expanding these formats into immersive surround without changing the original mix's tonal balance or artistic intent. This is critical for maintaining quality when upgrading older film formats.
Which cinemas and theaters benefit most from a QLI-32 immersive upgrade?
Multiplexes, arthouse theaters, and independent cinemas with existing 5.1 or 7.1 systems can add immersive capabilities without replacing their entire audio infrastructure. The cost savings versus a complete immersive processor replacement make it attractive for mid-sized venues.
How does Quantum Logic Immersion differ from other immersive audio upmixing technologies?
Lexicon's Quantum Logic Immersion uses proprietary algorithms to intelligently extract surround and overhead content from lower-channel mixes. The result is immersive expansion that sounds natural and tied to the original production intent.
Can the QLI-32 be added to any existing cinema processor?
The QLI-32 interfaces with compatible cinema processors; compatibility depends on your system's I/O and control architecture. Contact Procure.ae to confirm whether the QLI-32 suits your specific theater processor brand and model.
What monitoring and quality assurance is recommended when deploying the QLI-32 in a theater?
Upon installation, theaters should verify surround and overhead channel balance, test with known immersive reference material, and ensure the immersive upmix does not create unwanted artifacts on standard mixed-down content. Request professional calibration support from Procure.ae if available.
What is the lead time for the QLI-32 to arrive at a theater in the UAE?
Professional cinema audio equipment lead times vary based on stock and import requirements. Contact Procure.ae to confirm current availability and expected delivery to your venue.
Can Procure.ae coordinate installation and system integration of the QLI-32 with our existing theater processor?
Procure.ae handles B2B cinema equipment procurement and can discuss installation logistics. Request a quote to explore whether technical installation support or theater-equipment integration expertise is available for your venue.
What are the key specifications of the Lexicon QLI-32?

What does 'up to 32 channels' mean—do all cinemas use the full 32 channels?
Most cinemas use 22-24 channels (Auro-3D or DTS:X configurations), but the QLI-32's 32-channel capability provides headroom for future immersive formats or specialized theater configurations. Confirm your theater's target channel count when requesting a quote.
