Lexicon RV-8 - Manual (Page 185)

RV-8 Mode Adjust
6-43
MASTER LEVEL –5 to +5dB
Adjusts the output level of 2-channel Logic 7-encoded sources.
Available in 5.1 2-CHANNEL and DTS(-ES) 2-CHAN modes.
MID RT 24ms to 24.3s
Works with the SIZE parameters to adjust the amount of time
required for mid-frequency information to decay below 60dB in
level. The full parameter range might not be available depending
on the SIZE parameter setting. Available in CHURCH, CATHEDRAL
and all LIVE! modes.
CAUTION!
Setting the BASS RT, MID RT or SIZE parameters to a high
value may produce undesirable or damaging audio.
OUTPUT LEVELS
Opens the OUTPUT LEVELS menu, which is used to adjust output
levels for the Main Zone audio output connectors labeled Center,
Subwoofer, Side L/R and Rear L/R. Refer to page 5-32 for more
information. Available in all except 2-CHANNEL, MONO, 5.1
2-CHANNEL, 5.1 MONO, DTS (-ES) 2-CHAN, 2CH BYPASS and
LIVE! modes.
PANORAMA ON, OFF
When set to ON, Dolby PLII MUSIC and Dolby PLIIx MUSIC listening
modes extend the front stereo image to include surround channel
signals, which creates a “wraparound” effect with side wall imaging.
Available in Dolby PLII MUSIC and Dolby PLIIx MUSIC modes.
Note:
The PANORAMA parameter within the Dolby PLII MUSIC and Dolby PLIIx
MUSIC listening modes should not be confused with the separate
PANORAMA listening mode (page 6-13).
PRE-DELAY 1 to 100ms, OFF
Adjusts delay time between the direct sound and the onset of rever-
beration. Higher settings make the simulated space sound larger.
Because some pre-delay is inherent in all source material, you
should begin with the parameter set to the lowest setting, then
make adjustments accordingly. Available in NIGHTCLUB, CONCERT
HALL, CHURCH, CATHEDRAL and all LIVE! modes.
RE-EQUALIZER ON, OFF
Simulates high-frequency rolloffs that occur in movie theaters.
When set to ON, the RV-8 applies a high-frequency filter. When set
to OFF, the RV-8 does not apply a high-frequency filter. It is recom-
mended that you set this parameter to ON for film sources, as many
films are mixed for movie theaters and might sound too bright
when played back in home theaters without re-equalization.
Available in L7 FILM, L7 TV, Dolby PLII + THX, Dolby PLIIx + THX, 5.1
L7 FILM, 5.1 L7 TV, THX ULTRA2, THX SurEX, THX, DTS (-ES) L7 FILM,
DTS(-ES) THX ULTRA2 and DTS(-ES) THX modes.
REAR DLY OFFSET OFF, 1 to 30ms
Increases the perceived depth of the listening space by delaying the
arrival time of rear speaker signals. It is recommended that you
increase the setting when using side and rear speakers that are
located close together or when a greater sense of depth is desired in
the listening space. Available in all Logic 7 modes and PANORAMA
mode.
