ADJUSTING CHANNEL LEVELS "ON THE FLY"

You can make changes to the relative levels of center, surround and subwoofer outputs without
having to go into the "Speaker Levels" menu. This is very convenient in circumstances like increasing
(or tone down) a film's dialog level by rising (lowering) the center channel or reducing excessive deep
bass (or enhance deep bass) by lowering (rising) the subwoofer level.
Use the HTRC 1's [SURR], [CENT] and [SUB] keys for direct-access level adjustment of these channels
over a range of ±6dB.
The surround back channels (if any) adjust in lockstep with the surround channels.
NOTE
Level settings adjusted "On the Fly" are added or subtracted to the setup levels established at the
T 785 level-calibration routine as invoked by the HTRC 1 "Test" key. However, selecting any Preset
will revert the channel levels to those stored in the preset. It will also take T 785 off the levels set via
Audyssey Auto Calibration.

ZONE SETUP

The Zone feature allows one to simultaneously experience in different zones of the house multiple
sound and applicable video sources from all enabled Sources as well as from Front Input, Media Player
and Tuner.
The T 785 has three configurable Zones – Zone 2, Zone 3 and Zone 4. Use a combination of [
[ENTER] and [ ] keys to navigate through the Zone Setup menu parameters.
VOLUME
Zone 2 have Fixed and Variable volume control. When set to "Variable", the Zone 2 Volume is directly
adjustable using [ ] cursor keys of the HTRC 1 or [VOLUME
On the other hand, if Volume is set to "Fixed", the Zone 2 Volume is set to a preset dB level and
thereafter the zone's volume can be varied via the volume control of the separate amplifier it is fed
into.
MODE
Zone 3 and Zone 4 can be configured into two modes – Record Out and Zone (Audio Only). If the
selected mode is Record Out, the audio and applicable video signal of the assigned Source are directly
sent out to the applicable Audio/Video Output (See also item "5. AUDIO 3 OUT/VIDEO 3 OUT, AUDIO
4 OUT/VIDEO 4 OUT" of REAR PANEL discussion.) When Zone 3 or Zone 4 is set to "Record Out" mode,
they will not be available at the "Zone Controls" section of the Setup Menu window.
"Record Out" setting is ideal for making recordings with a VCR or other similar devices. This setting is
also used for multi-zone installations using passive "impedance matching" volume controls. See your
NAD dealer for specific information about integrating your NAD Receiver into a multi-room audio
distribution system.
Zone 2 and Zone 3 "Volume" will function the same way as that of Zone 2 when "Mode" is set to "Zone
(Audio Only)".
See discussion also on "ZONE CONTROLS" at the Main Menu.
NOTE
The ZR 4 remote control will only control Zone 2 applications.
