Advanced sound configurations
• Basic configuration of sound field
programs
Each sound field program has some parameters defining
the characteristics of the program. To customize the
selected sound field program, adjust "DSP LEVEL" and/
or ""DIALOG LIFT" first, and then try other parameters.
To change sound field parameter settings, see page 67 for details.
Adjusting the effect sound level of the sound
field programs (DSP LEVEL)
Sound field programs add effect sounds (OSP effect
sounds) to the original source sound to create sound field
in the listening room. Use the "OSP LEVEL" parameter to
adjust the level of the effect sounds.

Use this feature to adjust the vertical position of the
dialogues in movies. The ideal position of the dialogues is
at the center of the video monitor screen.
