Midnight mode (Dolby Digital and DTS mode only)
When watching movies at night, you might not be able to raise the
volume as loud as normal. Midnight mode compresses the dynamic
range of previously specified heavy sound passage of the Dolby Digital
and DTS mode sound track (like scenes with sudden increases in volume)
to minimize the difference in volume between the scenes with heavy
sound passage and scenes with normal sound passage. This makes it
easy to hear all of the sound track, even when listening at low volumes.
1 Press the SOUND key repeatedly until "NIGHT" appears on the
display.
• This can be selected only if "CD/DVD", "DVD/6CH" or "VIDEO2"
is selected as the source and the listen mode is set to "DOLBY
DIGITAL" or "DTS".
2 Use the MULTI CONTROL knob or MULTI CONTROL %/fi keys to
select the ON or OFF setting.
• Some Dolby Digital or DTS software may not be compatible with the
Midnight mode.
Panorama mode (Pro Logic II
MUSIC mode only)
When listening to music, you will be able to enjoy the "wraparound"
sound effect when you adjust the panorama mode.
1 Press the SOUND key repeatedly until "PANORAMA" appears on
the display.
• The "PANORAMA" setting indication scrolls across the display.
"PANORAMA" will be scrolled from right to left.
2 Use the MULTI CONTROL knob or MULTI CONTROL %/fi keys to
select the ON or OFF setting.
1 ON : PANORAMA mode is ON.
2 OFF : PANORAMA mode is OFF.
