SDP-5
5-29
BASS RT 5ms to 48.6s
Works with the MID RT and SIZE parameters to adjust the amount
of time required for low-frequency information to decay below
60dB in level. The BASS RT parameter setting should match the
MID RT parameter setting for more natural effects in smaller
listening spaces.
CALIBRATION
Opens the PANORAMA listening mode CALIBRATION menu, which
can be used to calibrate the PANORAMA listening mode. Refer to
page 5-11 for more information.
CENTER OFF, -30 to +12dB
Controls the output level of the Main Zone audio output
connector labeled Center.
CENTER DEPTH 0 to 18
Adjusts the amount of processing applied to the center channel,
changing the perceived distance of the center speaker. Higher
settings increase and lower settings decrease the perceived
distance of the center speaker from the listening position.
CENTER MIX -25 to +5dB
Indicates the relative center channel level for downmixing. It is
recommended to set this parameter to +0dB for film sources and
-5dB for music sources.
CENTER
OUTPUT LEVELS
(Listening Mode)
MODE ADJUST
Setting the BASS RT, MID RT, and SIZE parameters to a high
value may produce undesirable or damaging audio.
CAUTION
CNTR DLY SAMPLES -127 to +127
Controls the relative time offset of the center channel. It is
recommended to set this parameter to +0 unless the center channel
is not properly timed and the value of the error is known.
COMPRESSION AUTO, ON, OFF
Reduces wide volume level changes and increases dialog
intelligibility at lower listening levels for Dolby Digital input
sources. When set to ON, full compression is applied regardless of
volume level. When set to OFF, compression is not applied. It is
recommended to set this parameter to AUTO or ON for Dolby
Digital input sources that are listened to at lower volume levels,
especially for night time viewing to avoid disturbing others.
CTR WIDTH MIN, 1 to 6, MAX
Adjusts the center image. When set to MIN, the center image is
heard from just the center speaker. When set to MAX, the center
image is heard from just the front left and right speakers as a
“phantom” center image. When set on the 1 to 6 scale, the center
image is heard in various combinations of the front and center
speakers.
CUSTOM
Opens the CUSTOM menu, which can be used to compare custom
and factory-default versions of the selected listening mode and to
restore the factory default version of the selected listening mode.
