• The left button acts like the backspace key on a computer keyboard,
moving the cursor to the left and eliminating any characters along the way.
• The
right button moves the cursor to the right, adding characters along
the way. (Change each character to what you want as you go along, using
the + and – buttons.)
• The
+ and – buttons change the current character through the available
characters. They include all upper and lower case letters of the alphabet,
the numbers 0-9, and a variety of punctuation. When done, your main
display might look like this:
Touching the audio button gives you control over a wide variety of settings
which affect how the audio from this source will be handled.
• offset is used to ensure that all analog sources are played back at
comparable levels. There can be significant differences in output levels
among analog sources (this is not a problem with digital sources); this can
lead to unexpected changes in volume when switching among them. The
SSP-600 provides an adjustment range of from -5 to +10 dB.
• delay establishes an overall delay (added to all channels) for the audio so
as to match it more closely with a delayed video signal. This addresses the
“lip sync” problems often found with modern digital televisions, whose
sophisticated video processing introduces a delay in the picture you see.
If you see a consistent problem in this regard, this is the place to address
it. If you see a problem that seems specific to a particular disc, it is better
addressed in the Home menu (home/controls/system trims/audio delay).
The SSP-600 will automatically revert to this default setting when you
change inputs, or if you touch the reset trims
button.
• favorite processing determines what surround mode the SSP-600
will use by default when it receives either a two channel (“stereo”) or a
multichannel signal from this source. For example, you may want to use
Dolby Pro Logic II Music as the default mode for stereo signals from your
CD player, while preferring plain two-channel reproduction for the signal
from your FM tuner. Touching either the 2-channel or the multichannel
buttons will bring up a list of the available surround processing modes for
the chosen signal type, from which you may select your preferred default
setting for this source.
• the
digital button takes you to a screen where you can specify which
digital connection you wish to use with this source. The SSP-600 has four
coaxial digital inputs, two optical Toslink™ inputs, and one balanced
digital AES/EBU input, all of which are assignable to any source button
you choose.
