The sound field is made to be similar to that of the newest movie theaters, so the reverberations of the sound field itself are restrained as much as possible.
SOUND FIELD PROGRAM No. Program (group) Sub-program Normal/ 10 q/DTS SURROUND Matrix 6.1/ES Input source PRO LOGIC/Normal Analog, PCM, Dolby Digital in 2-channel DOLBY DIGITAL/ Normal *1 Dolby Digital DOLBY DIGITAL/ Matrix 6.1 *2 DTS DIGITAL SUR./ Normal *1 Features The built-in decoder precisely reproduces sounds and sound effects from sources. The highly efficient decoding process improves crosstalk and channel separation, and makes sound positioning smoother and more precise.
SOUND FIELD PROGRAM MOVIE THEATER Programs ■ Dolby Pro Logic + DSP sound field effect These programs express an immense sound field and a large surround effect. They also give depth to the sound from the main speakers to recreate the realistic sound of a Dolby Stereo theater.
SOUND FIELD PROGRAM PARAMETER EDITING 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.
SOUND FIELD PROGRAM PARAMETER EDITING Changing Parameter Settings Press u/d to select the parameter. 5 Press j / i to change the parameter value. Adjustments should be made with the remote control. INTRODUCTION You can enjoy good quality sound with the factory-set parameters. Although you do not have to change the initial settings, you can change some of the parameters to better suit the input source or your listening room. 4 y • We recommend that you edit the parameter while using a video monitor.
SOUND FIELD PROGRAM PARAMETER EDITING Digital 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. Note • Not all of the following parameters can be found in every program. ■ INIT.DLY (initial delay) (P.INIT.
SOUND FIELD PROGRAM PARAMETER EDITING ■ LIVENESS Function: Sound source INTRODUCTION This parameter adjusts the reflectivity of the virtual walls in the hall by changing the rate at which the early reflections decay. Control range: 0 – 10 Description: The early reflections of a sound source decay much faster in a room with acoustically absorbent wall surfaces than in one which has highly reflective surfaces.
SOUND FIELD PROGRAM PARAMETER EDITING ■ RC.INIT.DLY (rear center initial delay) Function: This parameter adjusts the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection in the rear center sound field. Control range: 1 – 49 msec ■ RC.ROOM SIZE (rear center room size) Function: This parameter adjusts the apparent size of the rear center sound field. Control range: 0.1 – 2.0 ■ RC.
SOUND FIELD PROGRAM PARAMETER EDITING ■ REV.DELAY (reverberation delay) Reverberation Sound source INTRODUCTION This parameter adjusts the time difference between the beginning of the direct sound and the beginning of the reverberation sound. Control range: 0 – 250 msec Description: The larger the value, the later the reverberation sound begins. A later reverberation sound makes you feel like you are in the larger acoustic environment. Level Function: (dB) PREPARATION 60 dB Time REV.
