Dual-mono setting

The dual-mono setting applies only to Dolby Digital discs that feature dual-mono material—see the disc box for details.

Dual-mono discs are recorded with two independent channels that may be played together or separately depending on the situation. For example, a guitar tuition disc might have the guitar recorded on one channel and all the other instruments on the other. Use the dual-mono setting to play just the guitar part on its own; just the backing, or everything together (through separate speakers, or mixed).

You can’t change this setting if the Record mode is on (see page 25).

1 Press SYSTEM SETUP.

2Press the 2 or 3 button until you see

CH or MIX in the display.

3Use the 5 and buttons to select a dual- mono setting.

L-CH1R-CH2– default setting (Ch1 is played through the left speaker; Ch2 through the right)

CH1 – Ch1 is played through the center speaker (or through the left and right speakers if Surround Off is selected); Ch2 is muted.

CH2 – Ch2 is played through the center speaker (or through the left and right speakers if Surround Off is selected); Ch1 is muted.

MIX – Ch1 and Ch2 are mixed together and played through the center speaker (or through both left and right speakers if Surround Off is selected).

4 Press ENTER.

Adjusting channel volume levels

Depending on your room and where you’re sitting, you may want to adjust the relative volumes of one or more speakers for a more balanced sound. You can do this in any mode, including the surround, DSP, and stereo modes. Settings that you make in any sound mode are completely independent and don’t affect any other mode.

Each DSP effect has its own set of channel level settings.

The channel levels you set for the Surround mode apply to Standard and all Advanced Theater effects.

The headphone level is not affected by the channel level settings.

1 Press CH LEVEL.

Adjustments to the channel volume levels will affect only the current sound mode.

2Use the 2 and 3 buttons to select a channel to adjust.

The display shows the channel and its current setting.

• Remember that not all channels are available in all sound modes.

3Use the 5 and buttons to adjust the volume of the current channel.

For best results, sit in your main listening position when doing this. You can adjust each speaker in the range of +/-10dB.

4 When you're done, press ENTER.
