Motorola DSR-6400 manual On-Moderate

DialNorm/Compress Field Default: On-Moderate

DialNorm is an abbreviation for Dialog Normalization. This field enables or disables dialog normalization and allows control of the degree of audio level compression. Press the 4 button until the cursor is at the DialNorm/Compress label, and press ENTER to move into the field. Press the  buttons to display the options:

On-Moderate	Enables dialog normalization. The degree of compression is moderate,
	which provides some reduction and amplification of the audio signal, but
	the thresholds are wider apart, providing moderate dynamic range of the
	audio signal.
On-Off	Enables dialog normalization. Compression is not used and provides full
	dynamic range of the audio signal.
Off-Off	Disables dialog normalization. Compression is not used and provides full
	dynamic range of the audio signal.
On-Heavy	Enables dialog normalization. The degree of compression is heavy, which
	reduces the louder audio signals and boosts the softer signals using tighter
	compression thresholds, in order to eliminate dramatic fluctuations in the
	audio signal level and suppress dynamic range of the audio signal.

Press ENTER to confirm the selection and exit the field.

Note: When dialog normalization is enabled, the audio levels for speech are normalized to a constant level for all channels. The volume of the dialogue is thus raised or lowered to a level that is appropriate for the background sound track.
