Background

Ultra Stereo was a technology used in theaters to present stereo audio for 35mm films. It was developed in 1984 by chief engineer Jack Cashin as a competitor to Dolby Stereo, but was later mostly used on low-budget and DTV movies.

1st Logo (1984-1990s?)



Logo: We see a blue star with a gold outline zooming out on a space background. "ULTRA STEREO" (with the two words separated by a star) in a pink-blue gradient font zoom in and flip on the background. The star causes the logo to shine, and the shine resonates across the logo. "PRESENTED IN" (in a Century Gothic-type font) wipes in above.

Technique: CGI.

Music/Sounds: A loud whoosh, followed by a pound when the star hits the logo, along with dreamy synth music afterwards.

Availability: Extinct.
