DIGITAL ANLG (Analog) DMIX (Downmix)
SETUP
SDP-5
3-25
The SDP-5 automatically sets the
ZONE2 IN parameter to DIGITAL
when the ANALOG IN parameter
is set to NONE.
• The SDP-5 sends the
assigned digital audio input
connector to the Zone 2
audio output connectors.
The SDP-5 ignores the
assigned analog audio input
connector.
• Independent zone monitoring
is available.
• The DIGITAL IN parameter
(3-7) can be used to assign a
digital audio input connector
for the selected input.
The SDP-5 automatically sets the
ZONE2 IN parameter to ANLG
when the DIGITAL IN parameter
is set to NONE.
• The SDP-5 sends the
assigned analog audio input
connector to the Zone 2
audio output connectors.
The SDP-5 ignores the
assigned digital audio input
connector.
• Independent zone monitoring
is available.
• The ANALOG IN parameter
(3-8) can be used to assign
an analog audio input
connector for the selected
input.
Set the ZONE2 IN parameter to DMIX to send a downmixed version of
Main Zone audio to the Zone 2 audio output connectors. Downmixes
can be generated for Dolby Digital and dts(-ES) sources.
•To generate a downmix, the same input must be selected in the
Main Zone and Zone 2. Otherwise, the Zone 2 audio output
connectors will mute.
• Main Zone listening mode activation affects the Zone 2 audio
output connectors. For instance, when the MONO listening mode
is activated in the Main Zone, the Zone 2 audio output connectors
will generate mono output signals.
• Downmixes cannot be generated when the 5.1a BYPASS listening
mode is activated in the Main Zone. However, when the ZONE2 IN
parameter is set to DMIX, the signals from the Main Zone audio
output connectors labeled Front L/R are sent to Zone 2. Signals
from other Main Zone audio output connectors are ignored.
• Independent zone monitoring is NOT available.
• It is recommended to set the ZONE2 IN parameter to DMIX when
recording from a DVD player without built-in Dolby Digital or
dts-ES decoding to a VCR or PVR (i.e. Tivo
®
or Replay TV
®
).
• The SDP-5 automatically uses LOGIC7 encoding to downmix
multi-channel input sources (except 5.1-channel analog sources) to
LOGIC7-encoded stereo output signals for listening and recording.
LOGIC7-encoded downmixes are compatible with matrix decoders,
but will sound best when played back through a LOGIC7 listening
mode.
