Using the digital surround processor
17
When not playing, the digital surround processor should be left
in the standby state. This uses a negligible amount of electricity,
but ensures that the components of the digital surround
processor operate at maximum efficiency from the moment you
start.
If you are not going to use the digital surround processor for
several days you should switch the unit completely off at the
back panel, and disconnect it from the AC power supply.
To switch on from standby
● Press Source (front panel), or select a source by pressing the
appropriate source key on the remote; eg DVD.
If the digital surround processor is part of a Meridian system it
will automatically switch on any other unit in the system, such as
the CD player and Meridian DSP loudspeakers.
To select a source
● Press Source (front panel) until the display shows the source
you require.
For example:
DVD
Alternatively press the appropriate source key on the remote;
eg DVD.
After a short delay the display shows the currently selected DSP
preset and volume setting.
For example:
Digital 56
The digital surround processor mutes the sound while you
change source.
By default the following 12 sources are available: CD, Radio, LP,
TV, Tape 1, Tape 2, CDR, Cable, DVD, VCR1, VCR2, and LDisc.
The audio input and DSP preset associated with each source
can be configured using the Meridian Configuration program; for
more information refer to Configuring the digital surround
processor using a computer, page 77.
