PANORAMA provides greater
spaciousness and envelopment for
either music or films. These programs
can utilize left and right rear channels but are
also effective using only two front loud-
speakers.
AMBIENCE simulates
and concert halls of three different
sizes, generating reflections of appro-
priate directionality, delay and spectral
shape and sending them to the side and rear
speakers.
REVERB simulates halls and rooms
of three sizes with the aid of side and
rear channels. These programs have
fewer specific initial reflections than AMBI-
ENCE but richer and smoother reverberant
decay.
SURROUND works with
sound tracks to recreate the theater
experience. MONO LOGIC expands
the music and effects on monaural films. STE-
REO LOGIC enhances music with surround
speakers. PRO LOGIC provides the same
decoding used in Dolby Stereo theater sys-
Note
To store a modified Preset program, press PARAM until the display reads: MEMORIZE PROGRAM, then press any of the 12 program keys to store
all current settings in the corresponding User register. User registers automatically store changes as they are entered.
The CP-1's User Bank can be cleared and reloaded with duplicates of the factory Preset programs at any time. Turn on the CP-1 while holding
down PARAM. Continue to hold down PARAM for several seconds. This puts the unit into TEST mode. Push EFFECT MUTE to clear and reload
the User Bank and to restore all initial settings of Volume, Balance, Contrast, Configuration, etc. Push PARAM again to begin normal operation.
