Using Dolby Pro Logic II (Dolby Pro Logic II)

Pro Logic processing can be applied to the music signals recorded in 2- channel stereo. This gives normal 2-channel stereo a more live, concert hall effect. When you select “Music,” you can adjust the center width.

This function provides the optimum vocal localization by adjusting the center channel localization in between the center speaker and the L/R speakers. (Initial setting: “Music”)

1 Click [ ] for “2ch Playback Mode” and select and click [Dolby Pro Logic II] from the pull-down menu.

2 Click either [Music] or [Movie] for “Dolby Pro Logic II.”

Music: Suits stereo TV shows and all programs encoded in Dolby Surround. Creates a sound field directivity near that of discrete 5.1-channel sound.

Movie: Can be used for all stereo music recordings, and provides a wide, deep sound field.

For details on Dolby Pro Logic II, see page 61.

This function only works with 2-channel signals.
