1) When the sound field is KARAOKE, this parameter
adjusts the vocal presence. The higher the setting, the
less dominant the vocal sound.
2) The adjustment of this parameter does not affect the
level of the bass frequencies sent to the subwoofer
from the front, center, or rear channels via the bass
redirection circuitry. Setting this parameter to 0dB
outputs the full LFE signal at the mix level
determined by the recording engineer. Selecting
MUTE mutes the sound of the LFE channel from the
subwoofer.
3) Setting this parameter to OFF reproduces the sound
track with no dynamic range compression. STD
reproduces the sound track with the full dynamic
range as intended by the recording engineer. MAX
provides a dramatic compression of the dynamic
range.
