DSP (Digital Signal Processor) Modes

DSP modes have been designed to create important acoustic surround elements.

The sound heard in a theater, a hall, a live club, or a dance club consists of direct sound and indirect sound—early reflections and reflections from behind. Direct sounds reach the listener directly without any reflection. On the other hand, indirect sounds are delayed by the distances of the ceiling and walls.

These indirect sounds are important elements of the acoustic surround effects.

The following DSP modes are provided with this unit.

To check the speaker connections and settings using the test tone

1.Select and play a DVD encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS Digital Surround.

2. Press TEST on the remote control.

3.Press TEST again to stop the test tone.

THEATER

: Gives the feeling of a theater.

HALL

: Gives clear vocal and the feeling of a concert

 

hall.

 

 

LIVE CLUB

: Gives the feeling of a live music club with a low

 

ceiling.

DANCE CLUB : Gives a throbbing bass beat.

These DSP modes can be used to add the acoustic surround effects while reproducing stereo analog software or Linear PCM digital software, and can give you a real “being there” feeling.

When one of the DSP modes is selected, the DSP indicator lights up on the display.
