adjustments controlled by the “Preset setup” submenu under “Audio setup.” When you select a
source that has an associated preset, the preset’s bass and treble settings replace those made on
the main “Audio setup” screen and the center, surround, and subwoofer level changes are added
to the values selected in “Level setup.” If you use the tone and speaker level adjustments on the
Master remote to change these settings, your changes will persist as long as the C 1 is set to that
input but will be erased from memory and lost as soon as you change to another input.
A source set to “No change” will use the global settings made in the “Audio setup” menu until
you change its settings with the Master remote, and changes made that way will be remem-
bered whenever you come back to this source.
A source set to “Flat trims” will use the global settings made in the “Audio setup” menu until
you change them with the Master remote, and will return to the global settings once you have
changed sources.
Analog monitor is used to adjust input sensitivity for analog audio signals, to insure against
overloading the analog-to-digital converters in the C 1, and also to allow balancing analog
sources so that volume will not shift annoyingly when you switch between them.
To use this feature, select the desired analog audio source on the “Source setup screen,” then
select “Analog monitor.” This will change the on-screen display to a level scale flanked by fluctu-
ating level-meter bars for each channel, plus shorter bars that linger briefly to help you see the
most recent peak levels:
Play some music that you know has high peak levels, and
listen carefully to see if the signal clips (distorts) on the
peaks. If so, use the Master remote’s thumbpad or the
front-panel knob to lower the gain; if not, raise the gain,
then lower it a little once you hear clipping. (The range of
adjustment is –5 to +10 dB.) For the analog outputs of CD
players and other sources with 2-volt output levels, a gain
setting of less than 0 dB will usually be best. (Note: If you
go to this screen while playing a digital source, the level-
meter bars will appear, but the “Gain” line will be
replaced by “Digital input” and no adjustments can be made.)
Component video lets you associate the selected input with any of the three component-video
inputs on the C 1. Note that this is true even of the Audio 1 through Audio 4 inputs, which are
not associated with any composite or S-video inputs.
Balanced source assigns the balanced analog Left and Right inputs to one of the ten main
sources, not necessarily the one selected in the “Source” line of the “Source setup” screen.
If you are not using the balanced input for any source, set this to “Off.”
Balanced routing offers two routes from the balanced input to the outputs of the C 1. “Bypass”
gives the shortest, most direct route possible through the C 1, with the signal passing only
through the volume controller, and then to the left and right front channel balanced outputs (and
to the “Rec/Out” jacks in the “Tape Monitor” area of the C 1 rear panel). In this mode, the signal
is unaffected by tone controls and other adjustments and surround modes are unavailable. In
“DSP” mode, all adjustments and surround modes can be used.
