Creating Realistic Sound Fields

English

DAP modes can be used when the front and surround speakers are connected to this unit (without respect to the center speaker connection: no sound comes out of the center speaker even if it is connected).

The following DAP modes are provided for this unit:

LIVE CLUB Gives the feeling of a live music club with a low ceiling.

DANCE CLUB Gives a throbbing bass beat.

HALL	Gives clear vocal and the feeling of a
	concert hall.

PAVILION Gives the spacious feeling of a pavilion with a high ceiling.

These DAP modes can be used to add the acoustic surround effects while reproducing 2-channel stereo software, either analog or Linear PCM digital signal, and can give you a real “being there” feeling.

•When one of the DAP modes is selected, the DSP indicator lights up on the display.

•For the multi-channel track which cannot be mixed down:

“MULTI CH” appears on the display and Surround mode still remains.
