You can adjust the values of certain digital sound field parameters so the sound fields are recreated accurately in your

listening room. Not all of the following parameters are found in every program.

INIT. DLY (Initial delay)

[P. INT. DLY for the presence sound field]

Function:

This

parameter

changes

the apparent

distance

from

the source

sound by

adjusting

the

delay

between the

 

direct sound and the first reflection heard by the listener.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Description:

The

smaller the

value,

the closer the

sound

source

seems to the

listener.

The larger

the

value,

the farther

 

the apparent distance seems. For a small room, this parameter would be set to a small value, and for a

 

large room, it would be set to a large value.

ROOM SIZE

[P. ROOM SIZE for the presence sound field]

Function:

This parameter

adjusts

the

apparent

size of

the

surround

 

sound

field.

The

larger

the

value, the larger the

 

surround

sound

field

becomes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Description:

As

the

sound

is

repeatedly

reflected

around

a room, the

larger

the hall

is,

the longer

the time

between

 

the

original

reflected

sound

and the

subsequent

reflections.

By

controlling

the

time

between

the

 

reflected sounds, you can change the apparent size of the virtual venue. Changing this parameter from

 

one to two, doubles the apparent length of the room.
