When it stops, the gray word "the" (set in the Microgramma font) zooms close and then moves back. The stylized blue word "'''digital'''" does the same, followed by a silver bar rectangle reading "experience" (also in Microgramma) that flies out. After the logo forms, it explodes into particles until the text "dts" appears, followed by a blue box behind it and an inward trail effect appearing within the text. At the top of the screen, there is the orange text "'''THIS THEATRE FEATURES'''" (in the Serpentine font). Finally, the words "DIGITAL" and "SOUND" (in the Optima font), both in white, zoom out above and below the box, respectively. | ||
'''Trivia:''' Unlike [[Dolby Digital|Dolby]] and [[THX]], DTS didn't actually release this trailer as a separate reel for projectionists to play before a film. Instead, it was included in the first reel of films that were originally mixed in DTS audio. However, in the late 1990s, when it was agreed upon that companies should use all three sound formats for their films to avoid competition, a separate reel with this trailer was made. | '''Trivia:''' Unlike [[Dolby Digital|Dolby]] and [[THX]], DTS didn't actually release this trailer as a separate reel for projectionists to play before a film.

The screen pans down into the ocean green wavy staves appear, resembling seaweed with music notes on them. Then, the camera pans with coral reef-like objects out of phone connectors, and many orange/yellow DTS rings appear. One DTS ring zooms in and flashes, causing the words "dts" to flash in one by one and "HD" to flash as well. "Master Audio" then fades in. | ||
'''Variant:''' There is an extended version, where the beginning shows one wave at first before many others form behind it and rumble, and the ocean scene pauses a bit before the camera pans down. The underwater scene is also extended as well, with things related to audio and music forming various sea life, including CD and mobile phone fishes and a whale made from microphones. Then, many colorful lights appear, explode and flash. The rest of the logo plays like the shorter version. There is also a 3D anaglyph version of this variant. | '''Variant:''' There is an extended version, where the beginning shows one wave at first before many others form behind it and rumble, and the ocean scene pauses a bit before the camera pans down.
