Selecting the main or sub-channel

You can select the playback sound (channel) you want while playing digital software recorded (or broadcast) in the Dual Mono mode (see page 43), which includes two monaural channels separately.

7Dual Mono—DUAL MONO

Select the playback sounds (channel).

DUAL MONO: MAIN

Select to play back the main channel (Ch 1).*

The signal indicator “L” lights up while playing back this channel.

DUAL MONO: SUB

Select to play back the sub-channel (Ch 2).*

The signal indicator “R” lights up while playing back this channel.

DUAL MONO: ALL

Select to play back both the main and sub-channels (Ch 1/Ch 2).*

The signal indicators “L” and “R” light up while playing back these channels.

Notes:

•The Dual Mono format is not identical with bilingual broadcasting or the MTS (Multichannel Television Sound) format used for TV programs. So this setting does not take

effect while watching bilingual or MTS programs.

*Dual Mono signals can be heard from the following speakers— L (left front speaker), R (right front speaker), and C (center speaker)—with respect to the current Surround setting.
