CP-1 Digital Audio Environment Processor
The MUSIC SURROUND modes allow you to play music through a system
of surround speakers. FULL RANGE (7) allows unprocessed music to be
played over all the speakers for background music, or for maximum
acoustical output of the system. MUSIC LOGIC (8) enhances music through
a unique ambience extraction method, and can provide spectacular results
with music that has carefully recorded stereo information. STEREO LOGIC
(9) enhances music with surround speakers and also allows the listener to
adjust certain parameters for film sound.
The MOVIE SURROUND modes work with film sound tracks to recreate
the theater experience. MONOLOGIC (10) expands the music and effects
on monaural films into the additional channels while leaving the dialog in
the front center. TV MATRIX (11) is designed to expand and enhance a wide
range of television programming. This mode also allows adjustment of
certain parameters for film sound which are not adjustable in mode 12.
Dolby PRO LOGIC (12) provides the same decoding used in Dolby Stereo
theater systems, using up to eight speakers for front, center, side, rear and
subwoofer channels.
The BANK button switches between the 12 factory-presets and 12 user
registers where customized programs may be stored. The number doesn't
change: if you are using Preset 9, BANK switches to User 9 and vice-versa.
Holding BANK for a few seconds puts the CP-1 into Configuration mode,
in which the three Parameter buttons adjust the LCD contrast and select one
of the 12 speaker setups illustrated on page 15.
The three PARAMETER buttons allow selection and adjustment of variable
parameters within each mode. Pushing PARAM displays the current pa-
rameter for five seconds; pushing it again before the display changes selects
the next parameter. Pressing PARAM UP or DOWN will display and adjust
the current parameter, whether or not PARAM has been pushed. A single
push changes the parameter by one unit; holding the button for more than
one second causes the values to change rapidly in an auto-repeat mode.
PARAM can also put the CP-1 into TEST mode. (See page 21.)
EFFECT: UP and DOWN adjust the level of all signals added by the CP-1.
BALANCE: F and B adjust the levels of the rear speakers relative to the
sides and fronts.
BALANCE: L and R adjust the left/right balance of all speakers: front, sides
and rear. It assumes the function of the balance control on your preamp or
receiver.
VOLUME: UP and DOWN adjust the level of all channels simultaneously.
*
The first push of either of this pair of buttons displays the current value for five seconds;
another push during that time increases or decreases the displayed value. Holding the button
down for 1 second engages auto-repeat, changing the value rapidly.
