In 5.1/7.1 audio mixes, the center channel is the magic channel with the dialogue. It gives plenty of control. It's pretty great in practice.

- IvyMike 5y agoUntil people don't have a center speaker hooked up.
- brokenmachine 5y agoYeah but that messes up the balance, ie character moves from left to right - it is quiet, then LOUD, then quiet. I guess upping the center channel is an ok solution in practice because this doesn't happen very often, but DTS:X and Dolby TrueHD do actually support a separate dialog object that you can adjust the volume of independently, but AFAIK there are no actual movie titles that are mixed to make use of this feature.
