x PHASE NOISE (Phase noise)
Initial setting: OFF
Lets you output the test tone sequentially from two
adjacent speaker.
x PHASE AUDIO (Phase audio)
Initial setting: OFF
Lets you output the source sound (instead of the test
tone) sequentially from two adjacent speaker.
x COMP. XXX
(Dynamic range compressor)
Lets you compress the dynamic range of the sound
track. This may be useful when you want to watch
movies at low volumes late at night.
• OFF
The dynamic range is not compressed.
• STD
The dynamic range is compressed as intended by the
recording engineer.
• MAX
The dynamic range is compressed dramatically.
Tip
Dynamic range compressor lets you compress the
dynamic range of the soundtrack based on the dynamic
range information included in the Dolby Digital signal.
Therefore, “STD” is the standard setting, but it only
enacts light compression. We recommend using the
“MAX” setting. This greatly compresses the dynamic
range and lets you view movies late at night at low
volumes. Unlike analog limiters, the levels are
predetermined and provide a very natural compression.
Note
Dynamic range compression is possible with Dolby
Digital sources only.
