The Advanced MCACC menu
Automatic MCACC (Expert)
If your setup requires more detailed settings
than those provided in Automatically setting up
for surround sound (Auto MCACC) on page 40,
you can customize your setup options below.
You can calibrate your system differently for up
to six different MCACC presets
useful if you have different listening positions
depending on the type of source (for example,
watching movies from a sofa, or playing a video
game close to the TV).
Important
• Make sure the microphone/speakers are
not moved during the Auto MCACC Setup.
• Using the Auto MCACC Setup will
overwrite any existing settings for the
MCACC preset you select.
• The screen saver will automatically appear
after five minutes of inactivity.
Note
1 These are stored in memory and referred to as MEMORY1 to MEMORY6 until you rename them in Data Management
on page 100.
2 You may also want to have separate calibration settings for the same listening position, depending on how you're
using your system.
3 Except in cases where you are only adjusting one parameter (i.e. channel level) from the Auto MCACC menu (step 2).
4 • When data measurement is taken (after selecting ALL or Keep SP System), the reverb characteristics data (both
before- and after-calibration) that this receiver had been storing will be overwritten. If you want to save the reverb
characteristics data before measuring, connect a USB memory device to this receiver and transfer the data.
• When measurement is taken of data other than SYMMETRY (after selecting ALL or Keep SP System), the data are
not measured after the correction. If you will need to measure after correction data, take the measurement using the
EQ Professional menu in the Manual MCACC setup (page 95).
• The EQ Pro & S-Wave measurement is also taken when Keep SP System or EQ Pro & S-Wave is selected. See
Acoustic Calibration EQ Professional on page 95 for more on this.
• Either effect of Acoustic Calibration EQ Professional and Standing Wave can be switched on and off in the
respective MCACC preset. For details, see Setting the Audio options on page 70.
5 The Keep SP System option allows you to calibrate your system while leaving your current speaker setting (page 104)
unchanged.
