Click “OK” to be taken to the first screen in the setup process:

Basic Setup tab

The screen above allows you to configure the SC-1 for the number and nature of

the channels in your system. Select the appropriate configuration from the drop-
down menu, wherein the normal conventions are used to describe the system,
e.g., a “5.1 Multichannel” system includes left, center, right, two surround chan-
nels, and a “0.1” subwoofer channel.

If you have already configured an identical system and saved the configuration,
you can load it by pressing the button below the drop-down menu.

If you are returning to set up an SC-1 that has already been set up at least once,
this screen will be skipped. The software will instead read the current settings of
the SC-1 and display the third panel (Room Calibration). If you need to return to
this screen to change the basic system configuration, you can click the Previous

button on the third and second screens to return, or click directly on the appro-
priate tab.

6.x Phantom

A special case exists in this menu system, that being the “6.x Phantom” system

configurations. This is intended to describe the case of what amounts to a 7.x
system minus its center channel. This configuration may be used in situations
where using a center channel is simply not practical.

Instead, the surround processor folds the center channel information into both
the left and right speakers equally, creating a “phantom” center channel image.
It is called out separately in this menu because there is also a “6.x Multichannel”
configuration which includes a center channel and a single, rear surround chan-
nel. In either case, the SC-1 needs to know which channels are being used so it
can produce the correct test signals during calibration.

When you have selected the basic system description that fits your situation,

click the Next button.
