Customizing sound fields (continued)
Dynamic range compressor (D.
RANGE COMP.)
Lets you compress the dynamic range of the
sound track. This may be useful when you want
to watch movies at low volumes late at night.
We recommend using the “MAX” setting.
• To reproduce the sound track with no
compression, select “OFF”.
• To reproduce the sound track with the dynamic
range intended by the recording engineer, select
“STD”.
• To compress the dynamic range in small steps
to achieve the sound you desire, select “0.1”–
“0.9”.
• To reproduce a dramatic compression of the
dynamic range, select “MAX”.
Note
Dynamic range compression is possible with Dolby
Digital sources only.
