DIALOGUE NORMALIZATION MESSAGE

Dialogue Normalization (Dial Norm) is a feature of Dolby Digital.

When playing back software which has been encoded in Dolby Digital, sometimes you may see a brief message on the FL display which will read "Dial Norm X dB" (X being a numeric value).

video signal is output from the MONITOR OUT

terminal.

(Using the remote control unit)

To adjust the tone, press the AMP button and press the > button PAGE3 is displayed.

Press the NIGHT (D1) button to turn on the Night mode. Setting the Night mode to “ON” compresses the dynamic range in Dolby Digital only.

This softens loud passages such as sudden explosions, to help prevent disturbing others late at night. To turn off the Night mode, Press the NIGHT (D1) button again.

Dialogue Normalization serves to let you know if the source material has been recorded at a higher or lower level than usual. For example, if you see the following message: "Dial Norm + 4 dB" on the FL display, to keep the overall output level constant just turn down the volume control by 4 dB. In other words, the source material that you are listening to has been recorded 4 dB louder than usual.

If you do not see a message on the FL display, then no adjustment of the volume control is necessary.
