'''Nickname''': "The Digital Experience", "The Giant LaserDisc", "Experience of Doom" | |||
''' | '''Trailer''': We start on a black background, where all of a sudden, a giant, gold optical disc (which can be interpreted as either a laserdisc or a DVD) zooms out from the hole. When it stops, the gray word "the" zooms close and then moves back. The stylized blue word "digital" does the same, followed by a silver bar rectangle reading "experience" that flies out. After the logo forms, the whole thing explodes into various particles, which then turns into "d," "t," and "s", followed by the appearance of a blue box around the DTS text. Above the DTS blue box are the words "THIS THEATRE FEATURES" in orange. Finally, the word "DIGITAL" zoom out above the blue box and the word "SOUND" zoom out below the box, all in white font. | ||
''' | '''FX/SFX''': The disc zooming out at us, the individual words followed by the dissolving; the appearance of "DTS" and "THIS THEATRE FEATURES" text followed by the zoom out of the "DIGITAL SOUND" text. All in fine quality and in CGI. | ||

'''FX/SFX''': CGI animation mixed with live-action animation. | |||
'''Music/Sounds''': TBA. It could be the next logo's music, or waterdrop sounds. | |||
'''Availability''': Scarce. This logo was made as an alternative to the previous logo, but it is a similarity to the Imagine Entertainment logo resulted in DTS nearly being sued by said company. As such, it was only seen in three theaters in both St. Louis and Albuquerque before DTS pulled this logo very fast. However, it still exists in the hands of private collectors. | |||

'''Trailer''': On a black background, several strands of silver balls spin around, morph and generally have energetic motion for the duration of the logo. The center dots spin and pull and turn slightly purple, as chandelier-like designs fly out of the middle center. The center dots then turn light purple and merge together, as the background balls curve, into the DTS logo. The text "DIGITAL SURROUND" appears at the top and bottom of "dts", respectively, alongside the former company website below, when the dots in the background fade out. | '''Trailer''': On a black background, several strands of silver balls spin around, morph and generally have energetic motion for the duration of the logo.
