DAB (DIGITAL AUDIO BROADCASTING) DAB (DIGITAL AUDIO BROADCASTING) About DAB Ensemble DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting), also known as digital radio, is a new way of radio broadcasting. DAB is broadcast using digital signals instead of analog signals, resulting in near CD-quality sound. Analog signals (i.e. AM/FM) are susceptible to interference (i.e. distortion and noise) caused by electrical equipment, weather conditions, tall buildings, mountains, etc.; digital signals are not.
DAB (DIGITAL AUDIO BROADCASTING) DAB tuning 3 For DAB tuning, the user does not tune in by station frequency (like FM/AM), but tunes in via the channel label instead. There are five DAB tuning methods: ALPHANUMERIC, ACTIVE, ENSEMBLE, FAVOURITE and PRESET. Press PRESET/TUNING (EDIT) (SEARCH MODE) (or SRCH MODE on the remote control) to switch between AUTO and PRESET.
DAB (DIGITAL AUDIO BROADCASTING) PRESET MEMORY 3a PRESET MEMORY mode is used to assign preset numbers to DAB services. 1 Tune in to the DAB service you would like to assign a preset number to. VCR V-AUX DTV/CBL DVD MD/CD-R TUNER CD TUNED SP AB DAB Press PRESET/TUNING l / h (or PRESET/CH u / d on the remote control) to browse through the assigned preset service numbers in the registry list. When not assigned, EMPTY appears next to the number.
DAB (DIGITAL AUDIO BROADCASTING) ■ PRESET tuning With PRESET tuning, the users tunes in to DAB services by entering the user-assigned preset service number. 1 Switch to DAB reception and select PRESET as the tuning method, following steps 1 through 3 as described in “Switching to DAB reception” on page 43. 2c Press ENTER to confirm your selection. The numbers entered followed by the service assigned to those numbers appear on the front panel display for three seconds.

DAB (DIGITAL AUDIO BROADCASTING) Dynamic Range Control 4 Dynamic range is the decibel (dB) range between the highest and lowest sounds in a broadcast. Some DAB broadcasters transmit a wide dynamic range (enabling high quality sound), accompanied by Dynamic Range Control (DRC) data. DRC can be used to compress the dynamic range of the broadcast, making softer sounds easier to hear. This is especially useful when listening to a DAB service in a noisy environment or at a low volume (such as at night).
DAB (DIGITAL AUDIO BROADCASTING) PRUNE LIST PRESET DELETE PRUNE LIST (PRUNE LIST) is used to delete a group of inactive ensembles and services from the DAB registry list. Use PRESET DELETE to delete specific unnecessary services from the DAB registry list. 1 1 Access DAB MENU by following steps 1 through 5 as described in “Accessing DAB MENU” on page 47. “INIT SCAN” appears in the front panel display. Access DAB MENU by following steps 1 through 5 as described in “Accessing DAB MENU” on page 47.

EDITING SOUND FIELD PARAMETERS EDITING SOUND FIELD PARAMETERS What is a sound field What really creates the rich, full tones of a live instrument are the multiple reflections from the walls of the room. In addition to making the sound “live”, these reflections enable us to tell where the player is situated, and the size and shape of the room in which we are sitting. Changing parameter settings You can enjoy good quality sound with the factory preset parameters.
EDITING SOUND FIELD PARAMETERS 5 Repeat steps 2 through 4 as necessary to change other program parameters. Note You cannot change parameter values when “MEMORY GUARD” is set to ON. If you want to change the parameter values, set “MEMORY GUARD” to OFF (see page 63). Memory back-up The memory back-up circuit prevents the stored data from being lost even if this unit is set in the standby mode, the power cord is disconnected from the AC outlet, or the power supply is temporarily cut due to power failure.
SOUND FIELD PARAMETER DESCRIPTIONS SOUND FIELD PARAMETER DESCRIPTIONS You can adjust the values of certain digital sound field parameters so the sound fields are recreated accurately in your listening room. Not all of the following parameters are found in every program. ■ DSP LEVEL (DSP level) Function: Description: Control range: Adjusts the level of all the DSP effect sounds within a narrow range.

GLOSSARY GLOSSARY Audio formats ■ Dolby Digital Dolby Digital is a digital surround sound system that gives you completely independent multi-channel audio. With 3 front channels (left, center, and right), and 2 surround stereo channels, Dolby Digital provides 5 full-range audio channels. With an additional channel especially for bass effects, called LFE (low frequency effect), the system has a total of 5.1-channels (LFE is counted as 0.1 channel).
GLOSSARY Sound field programs ■ CINEMA DSP Since the Dolby Surround and DTS systems were originally designed for use in movie theaters, their effect is best felt in a theater having many speakers and designed for acoustic effects. Since home conditions, such as room size, wall material, number of speakers, and so on, can differ so widely, it’s inevitable that there are differences in the sound heard as well.
GLOSSARY Video signal information ■ Component video signal With the component video signal system, the video signal is separated into the Y signal for the luminance and the PB and PR signals for the chrominance. Color can be reproduced more faithfully with this system because each of these signals is independent. The component signal is also called the “color difference signal” because the luminance signal is subtracted from the color signal.
