USING DIGITAL SOUND FIELD PROCESSOR (DSP)
This unit incorporates a sophisticated, multi-program digital sound field processor, which allows you to expand and shape the audio sound field from both the audio and video sources, for a theater-like experience in the listening/viewing room. This digital sound field processor has 4 programs; 2 programs for digital sound field processing and 2 programs for the Dolby Pro Logic Surround sound system (DOLBY PRO LOGIC and DOLBY 3 STEREO). You can create an excellent audio sound field by selecting the suitable program and adding desired adjustments. In addition, when the DOLBY PRO LOGIC or DOLBY 3 STEREO program is selected, the built-in automatic input balance control functions. This presents you the best surround condition without manual adjustment. Display your selection on the DSP or other information. Used for speaker balance adjustment (For details, refer to page 11, 12 and 13.)

ROCK HALL

Description of Dolby Pro Logic Surround
DOLBY PRO LOGIC SURROUND: This unit employs the Dolby Pro Logic Surround system. This system is similar to professional Dolby Stereo decoders used in movie theaters. By employing a four-channel system, the Dolby Pro Logic Surround system divides the input signals into four levels: the left and right main channels, the center channel (to characterize dialog), and the rear surround-sound channels (to characterize sound effects, background noise and other ambient noise). Dolby Surround is encoded on the sound track of commercially available video cassettes and video discs as well. When you play a source encoded with Dolby Surround on your home video system, the Dolby Pro Logic Surround system in this unit decodes the signal and feeds the surround-sound effects. The Dolby Pro Logic Surround mode may not be always effective on video sources not encoded with Dolby Surround.
Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation. Additionally licensed under Canadian patent number 1,037,877. Dolby, Pro Logic, and the double-D symbol are trademarks of Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation.
To play a source with the digital sound field processor
REC/PAUSE STOP DECK A/B VCR MON
Follow steps shown in BASIC OPERATIONS on page 14.
Notes If you prefer to cancel the DSP, press the EFFECT switch. The sound will be the normal 2-channel stereo without surround sound effect. When ROCK or HALL is selected, no sound is heard from the center speaker. When a monaural sound source is played with DOLBY PRO LOGIC or DOLBY 3 STEREO, no sound is heard from the front speakers and the rear speakers. Sound is heard only from the center speaker. For DOLBY PRO LOGIC only, however, if the center channel mode is in PHANTOM, the front speakers output the sound of the center channel. When this units Dolby Pro Logic Surround system is used, if the main-source sound is considerably altered by overadjustment of the BASS or TREBLE controls, the relationship between the center and rear channels may produce an unnatural effect.
Select the desired program that is suitable for the source.

PROGRAM TEST

The selected program name is shown on the display.
If desired, adjust the delay time and the output level of each speaker. (For details, refer to the corresponding descriptions on the next page.)
Adjustment of the CENTER LEVEL
If desired, you can adjust the sound output level of the center speaker even if the output level is already set in SPEAKER BALANCE ADJUSTMENT on page 13.
If the digital sound field program ROCK or HALL is selected, this adjustment is useless. Once the output level is adjusted, the level value will be the same in the DOLBY PRO LOGIC and DOLBY 3 STEREO programs. If no program is used, this adjustment is useless.
Adjustment of the REAR LEVEL
If desired, you can adjust the sound output level of the rear speakers even if the output level is already set in SPEAKER BALANCE ADJUSTMENT on page 13.
If the program DOLBY 3 STEREO is selected, this adjustment is useless. Once the output level is adjusted, the level value will be the same in the DOLBY PRO LOGIC, ROCK and HALL programs. If no program is used, this adjustment is useless.

Adjustment of DELAY TIME

You can adjust the time difference between the beginning of the source sound and the beginning of the effect sound with the DELAY TIME keys. By applying more or less delay, sound effects, background noise, and ambient noise coming at you from the rear speakers can be enhanced or subdued for extra effect. PRO LOGIC ROCK HALL : from 15 to 30 milliseconds (Preset value: 20 milliseconds) : from 5 to 60 milliseconds (Preset value: 20 milliseconds) : from 5 to 60 milliseconds (Preset value: 20 milliseconds)
By continuously pressing + or key, the value changes continuously. Adjustable

NORM WIDEP

Notes q When DOLBY 3 STEREO is selected, this adjustment cannot be made. q Adding too much delay will cause an unnatural effect with some sources. Experiment with the DELAY TIME keys to create the effect that you find most suitable. q The values of the DELAY TIME you set the last time will remain memorized even when the power of this unit is off. However, if the power cord is kept disconnected for more than one week, these values will be automatically changed back to the original factory settings. q When the DELAY TIME key is pressed, the sound is momentarily interrupted.
