Meridian America 541 Changing the preset parameters, Delay

Changing the preset parameters

Each preset provides a series of parameters which you can vary to customise the behaviour of the preset to your specific requirements. For example, most presets provide a Delay parameter, to allow you to specify the delay applied to the rear surround speakers in order to change the spaciousness of the sound.

You can save the changes you have made to a preset so that you can use the same settings whenever you want. You have a choice of saving changes to the built-in preset, or you can create a new preset with a name of your choice. User-defined presets appear in the list of presets after the built-in ones.

The following table shows the parameters available for each preset, and their standard values:
