Here you can set the volume for each speaker so
that they are all heard by the listener at the same
level. We recommend using a SPL (Sound
Pressure Level) meter, when available.
Note:
• The speaker level settings are not available in 7.1
Channel Input mode, Pure Direct mode and
Source Direct mode.
TEST MODE:
Select "MANUAL" or "AUTO" generation of the
test tone with the
or
cursor buttons.
If you select "AUTO", the test tone will be cycled
through in a circular pattern beginning at Left
→ → → → → Center → → → → → Right → → → → → Surround Right → → → → →
Surround Back Right → → → → → Surround Back Left → → → → →
Surround Left → → → → → Subwoofer → → → → → Left, in 2
seconds increments for each channel.
Using the
or
cursor buttons, adjust the volume
level of the noise from the speaker so that it is the
same level for all the speakers.
If you select "MANUAL", adjust the output level of
each speaker as listed below.
