The RMC-1 Menu System
The Main Zone Menu contains the settings and controls typically used in the day-to-day
operation of your RMC-1. These are settings that are typically chosen each time when viewing
content; settings that remain in effect across multiple viewing sessions are accessed from the
Setup Menu.
Note: The Level and Tone Trim settings on the Main Zone Menu are temporary trim settings,
and apply only to the current listening session. To make changes to these settings that will
persist after you restart the RMC-1, you will need to change them in the Setup Menu.
Note: The default settings for several parameters on the Main Zone Menu will be dependent on
settings elsewhere in the Setup Menu.
For example, if you have previously set the Treble Adjustment for a given speaker to +5 dB at
5 kHz in the Setup Menu, the Treble Trim in the Main Zone Menu will still initially show the level
for that speaker as 0 dB. If you then set the Treble Trim to +5 dB at 5 kHz, that adjustment will
be ADDED to the other setting - with the result that Treble will actually be boosted by +10 dB
at 5 kHz. If you set the Treble Trim to -5 dB at 5 kHz, it will be ADDED to the +5 dB setting in the
Setup Menu - with the result that the Treble will actually be set to +0 dB (flat). When you restart
your RMC-1, the Treble adjustment you made in the Setup Menu will remain in effect, while the
Treble Trim adjustment you made in the Main Zone Menu will revert to the default +0 dB.
Note: While "stacking" controls for extra gain or cut at a specific frequency is usually not
recommended, the RMC-1 will generally normalize the overall level to prevent clipping if you
choose to do so.
Note: When the Tuner is selected as your Input, the middle row on the display will show the
signal strength of the current station, and whether it is being received stereo or monaural.
Since there is no video signal associated with the Tuner, the third row will continue to display
information about the last selected video input.
Level Trim
The Level Trim is used to temporarily alter the relative level of each set of speakers. For each set of
speakers you may change the level by up to +/- 12 dB in 0.5 dB steps.
Bass Level Tone Trim & Bass Frequency Trim
The Bass Level Tone Trim is used to temporarily alter the relative level of the bass for all speakers
by up to +/- 12 dB in 0.5 dB steps.
The Bass Frequency Trim allows you to configure the turnover frequency for the Bass Level Tone
Trim to any frequency between 40 Hz and 400 Hz.
Treble Level Tone Trim & Treble Frequency Trim
The Treble Level Tone Trim is used to temporarily alter the relative level of the treble for all
speakers by up to +/- 12 dB in 0.5 dB steps.
The Treble Frequency Trim allows you to configure the turnover frequency for the Treble Level
Tone Trim to any frequency between 500 Hz and 10 kHz.
