3 Use the MULTI CONTROL knob or Multi %/ keys to adjust the
setting as desired.
Midnight mode (Dolby Digital mode only)
When watching movies at night, you might not be able to raise the
volume as loud as normal. Midnight mode compresses the dynamic
range of previously specified heavy sound passage of the Dolby Digital
sound track (like scenes with sudden increases in volume) to minimize
the difference in volume between the scenes with heavy sound passage
and scenes with normal sound passage. This makes it easy to hear all of
the sound track, even when listening at low volumes.
1 Press the SOUND key repeatedly until “NIGHT” appears on the
display.
This can be selected only if CD/DVD, DVD/6CH or VIDEO2 is
selected as the source and the listen mode is set to “DOLBY
DIGITAL.”
