x D. Range Comp
(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. Dynamic range compression is possible
with Dolby Digital sources only.
• OFF
The dynamic range is not compressed.
• AUTO
The dynamic range is applied automatically
with Dolby TrueHD source and is set to
“OFF” with other sources.
• STD
The dynamic range is compressed as
intended by the recording engineer.
• MAX
The dynamic range is compressed
dramatically.
Tips
• Dynamic range compressor lets you compress the
dynamic range of the soundtrack based on the
dynamic range information included in the Dolby
Digital signal.
• “STD” is the standard setting, but it only enacts
light compression. Therefore, 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.
x Distance Unit (Distance unit)
Lets you select the unit of measure for setting
distances.
• meter
The distance is displayed in meters.
• feet
The distance is displayed in feet.
