ENGLISH

SETTING THE SOUND PARAMETER

• NIGHT MODE : To adjust the dynamic range compression that makes faint sound easier to hear at low volume levels.

• DOLBY PLII MUSIC : To adjust the various surround parameters for optimum surround effect.

•DOLBY HEADPHONE : To select the desired listening mode for each Dolby Headphone mode.

•DOLBY VIRTUAL SPEAKER : To select the speaker layout to be used actually for each Dolby Virtual Speaker mode.

When selecting the NIGHT MODE

•This function compresses the dynamic range of previously specified parts of the Dolby Digital sound track (with extremely high volume) to minimize the difference in volume between the specified and non- specified parts.

This makes it easy to hear all of the sound track when watching movies at night at low levels.

■Notes:

•The night mode setting is valid only when the digital signals from the Dolby Digital program source are being input.

•In some Dolby Digital softwares, the night mode setting may not be valid.

Press the CURSOR UP(▲)/DOWN(▼) buttons to select the NIGHT MODE, then press the

1 ENTER button.

Press the CURSOR LEFT(◀)/ RIGHT(▶) buttons to adjust the dynamic range compression as

2 desired.
