Dialog norm

Dialogue Normalization (Dialog Norm) is a feature of Dolby Digital. When playing back software that has been encoded in Dolby Digital, sometimes you may see a brief message in the front panel display that reads Dia- log Norm xdB (“x” being a numeric value). 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 message “Dialog Norm: +4” in the front panel 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, then no adjustment of the volume control is necessary.

Switching the display

While listening to or watching an input source, you can display information regarding the type of source and sig- nal being input.
