2 Setting the Midnight Mode—MIDNIGHT MODE
Using the Midnight mode, you
can enjoy a powerful sound at
night even at a low volume level.
7 MIDNIGHT MODE
Select one of the following:
1 : Select when you want to reduce the dynamic range a
little. The MIDNIGHT MODE indicator lights up on the
display.
2 : Select when you want to apply the compress effect fully
(useful late at night). The MIDNIGHT MODE indicator
lights up on the display.
OFF : Select when you want to enjoy surround with its full
dynamic range (no effect applied). The MIDNIGHT
MODE indicator goes off from the display.
Notes:
• This function is applied only to Zone 1 sources.
• If Analog Direct is in use, Midnight mode is temporarily
canceled.
• The MIDNIGHT MODE indicator goes off when one of the THX
modes is activated. However, this function is still active if the
playback source is Dolby Digital or DTS encoded software. (If
the source is analog or digital PCM software, Midnight mode is
canceled.)
3 Adjusting the Various Effects
—EFFECT ADJUST
On these submenus, you can adjust various effects for each DSP and
Surround mode (except the THX modes).
Notes:
• This submenu is not available when “ALL CH STEREO” is selected.
• This submenu settings are memorized for each DSP and Surround
mode (including multi-channel playback modes—“DVD MULTI” and
“EXT 7.1CH” with the DSP mode turned off).
• You cannot adjust these various effects in the following cases:
– When Analog Direct is turned on.
– When the THX mode is turned on.
– When the Surround or DSP mode is turned off, or
– When “3D HEADPHONE” or “HEADPHONE” mode is turned on.
7 Submenu items
Adjustable items on the submenu depend on what mode is
currently selected.
• If “NONE” is selected for the center speaker on the
SPEAKER SETTING submenu (see page 38), no adjustments
related to the center channel are available—“CENTER EQ,”
“CENTER ALIGN,” “CENTER WIDTH,” and “CENTER
GAIN.”
• When one of the DSP modes (except “ALL CH STEREO”)
is activated:
Select and adjust the following items:
EFFECT LEVEL: Adjust the DSP effect level.
As the number increases, the DSP effect becomes stronger.
(Normally select “3.” Adjustable range: 1 to 5)
ROOM SIZE: Adjust the virtual room size. As the number
increases, the interval between reflections increases so that
you will feel as if you are in a larger room. (Normally select
“3.” Adjustable range: 1 to 5)
LIVENESS: Adjust the liveness effect. As the number
increases, the attenuation level of reflections over time
decreases so that acoustics change from “Dead” to “Live.”
(Normally select “3.” Adjustable range: 1 to 5)
WALL TYPE: Adjust the wall type. As the number increases, the
hardness of the wall to be simulated ranges from “soft” to
“hard.” (Normally select “3.” Adjustable range: 1 to 5)
SEAT POSITION: Select either 1 or 2 according to your
preference as if you change your seat in a theater, hall,
recital hall, church, etc.
CENTER EQ: In movie theaters, the screen works as the high-
frequency cut filter of the center channel since the center
speakers are located behind the screen and the center
channel sounds have to pass through the screen.
• Select “ON” to cut off the high frequency of the center
channel as is done in a real movie theater.
• Select “OFF” not to use this function.
CENTER ALIGN: Align the vertical localization of the center
channel signals (mainly human voices are recorded) at the
same height as for the front speakers.
• Select “ON” when you cannot feel as if the actors or
singers are speaking or singing on the screen.
• Select “OFF” not to use this function.
