				SETUP & ADJUSTMENT   
					Installing the Remote Control Unit Batteries   
					1-1. GETTING STARTED   
					Since the remote control unit will be used for many of this unit’s   
					control operations, you should begin by installing the supplied   
					batteries.   
					Unpacking   
					If you haven’t already done so, carefully remove this unit and its   
					accessories from the box and wrapping material.You should find the   
					unit itself and the following accessories.   
					1. Turn the remote control unit over and slide the battery   
					compartment cover downward in the direction of the arrow.   
					2. Insert the batteries (R6, AA, UM-3 type), being careful to align   
					them with the polarity markings on the inside of the battery   
					compartment.

				● 
					When you notice that remote control operation has become   
					erratic, or the distance from which the remote control will function   
					has decreased, it’s time to replace the batteries. Always replace all   
					batteries at the same time.   
					Digital Sound Field Processing   
					What is it that makes live music so good? Today’s advanced   
					sound reproduction technology lets you get extremely close to the   
					sound of a live performance, but chances are you’ll still notice   
					something missing, the acoustic environment of the live concert hall.   
					Extensive research into the exact nature of the sonic reflections that   
					create the ambience of a large hall has made it possible for Yamaha   
					engineers to bring you this same sound in your own listening room,   
					so you’ll feel all the sound of a live concert. What’s more, our   
					technicians, armed with sophisticated measuring equipment, have   
					even made it possible to capture the acoustics of a variety of actual   
					concert halls, jazz clubs, theaters, etc. from around the world, to   
					allow you to accurately recreate any one of these live performance   
					environments, all in your own home.   
					● 
					● 
					Make sure that the YPC/USER/LEARN switch on the remote   
					control unit is set to the YPC or USER position for normal   
					operation.   
					This remote control uses an advanced, highly directional infrared   
					beam. Be sure to aim the remote control directly at the remote   
					control sensor on the main unit when operating.   
					Remote control transmitter operation range   
					Remote control   
					sensor   
					Within approximately   
					6 m (19.7 feet)   
					Notes   
					● 
					There should be no large obstacles between the remote   
					control transmitter and the main unit.   
					If the remote control sensor is directly illuminated by strong   
					● 
					lighting (especially an inverter type of fluorescent lamp etc.),   
					it might cause the remote control transmitter to work   
					incorrectly. In this case, reposition the main unit to avoid   
					direct lighting.

				Dolby Pro Logic Surround   
					Dolby Pro Logic Surround + DSP   
					The Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder program lets you   
					experience the dramatic realism and impact of Dolby Surround movie   
					theater sound in your own home. Dolby Pro Logic gets its name from   
					its professional-grade steering logic circuitry, which provides greater   
					effective channel separation for a much higher degree of realism than   
					the “passive” Dolby Surround circuits found in today’s typical home   
					audio/video equipment. Dolby Pro Logic Surround provides a true   
					center channel, so that there are four independent channels, unlike   
					passive Dolby Surround, which has in effect only three channels: left,   
					right, and rear.This center channel allows listeners seated in even   
					less-than-ideal positions to hear the dialog originating from the action   
					on the screen while experiencing good stereo imaging.   
					Additionally you can enjoy sound environment created by the   
					combination of Dolby Pro Logic and YAMAHA DSP. Precise sound   
					movement and orientation by the Dolby Pro Logic technology is   
					added to sound fields which are precisely recreated on the   
					basis of actual acoustic environments by the DSP technology,   
					so it is suitable for any Audio/Video source with video image.   
					This combination is used on sound field programs No. 8 through   
					No. 11, and “Enhanced DOLBY PRO LOGIC” of No. 12.   
					7ch   
					CINEMA DSP   
					The YAMAHA “CINEMA DSP” logo indicates these programs are   
					created by the combination of Dolby Pro Logic and YAMAHA DSP   
					technology.   
					This Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder employs a digital signal   
					processing system.This system improves the stability of sound at   
					each channel and crosstalk between channels, so that positioning of   
					sounds around the room is more accurate compared with   
					conventional analog signal processing systems.   
					In addition, this unit features a built-in automatic input balance   
					control.This always assures you the best performance without   
					manual adjustment.   
					Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories Licensing   
					Corporation. Additionally licensed under Canadian patent number   
					1,037,877. “Dolby”, “Pro Logic”, and the double-D symbol are   
					trademarks of Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation.

				Setting UpYour Speaker System   
					Use of the Center Dialog Speaker Is Recommended   
					This unit has been designed to provide the best sound field   
					quality with a full seven-speaker system setup, using two extra pairs   
					of effect speakers to generate the sound field plus one center   
					speaker for dialog, when using Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoding.   
					We therefore recommend that you use a seven-speaker setup. A   
					four-speaker system using only one pair of effect speakers for the   
					sound field will still provide impressive ambience and effects,   
					however, and may be a good way to begin with this unit.You can   
					always upgrade to the full seven speaker system later. In the 4 or 5   
					speaker system, the Digital Sound Field Processing is still   
					performed, but the main speakers are used for both the main   
					channels and the front effect channels.   
					With digital sound field programs No. 8 through No. 12, by using   
					either the Directional Enhancement circuit or the Dolby Pro Logic   
					decoder, decoded signals will be output from the center channel.   
					Therefore, if you want to maximize the performance of your   
					Audio/Video home theater system, it is recommended that you use a   
					center channel speaker.   
					If for some reason it is not practical to use a center speaker, it is   
					possible to enjoy movie viewing without it. Best results, however, are   
					obtained with the full system.   
					It is also possible to further expand your system with the addition   
					of a subwoofer and amplifier.You may wish to choose the   
					convenience of a Yamaha Active Servo Processing Subwoofer   
					System, which has its own built-in power amp.

					Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.   
				Four Possible Types of Speaker System Configurations Recommended   
					4 Speaker System   
					5 Speaker System   
					6 Speaker System   
					7 Speaker System   
					Simplest system.   
					Good for Audio/Video sources and   
					Dolby Pro Logic Surround.   
					Good for sound fields from 2-channel   
					stereo sources.   
					This is the recommended speaker   
					system, providing the best sound   
					effects.   
					You can enjoy widely diffused sound by   
					only adding two additional speaker units   
					at the rear.   
					With sound field programs No. 8   
					through No. 12, which utilize the center   
					speaker effect, more precise center   
					localization can be obtained.   
					With sound field programs No. 1   
					through No. 7, a sound effect matching   
					that of a 7-speaker system can be   
					obtained. The addition of front left and   
					right effect speakers produces a more   
					effective sound field.   
					With sound field programs No. 1   
					through No. 7, using both sets of effect   
					speakers (front and rear), reproduces   
					the most effective sound field. With the   
					sound field programs No. 8 through No.   
					12, the center speaker provides precise   
					center localization.

				Speakers and Speaker Placement   
					Your full seven-speaker system will require three speaker pairs:   
					the MAIN SPEAKERS (your normal stereo speakers), the FRONT   
					EFFECT SPEAKERS and the REAR EFFECT SPEAKERS, plus the   
					CENTER SPEAKER.You may also be using a subwoofer.   
					You will probably use your present stereo speakers as the MAIN   
					SPEAKER pair.The front effect and rear effect do not need to be   
					equal with the MAIN SPEAKERS, although the center speaker   
					should be as close as possible.They should have enough power   
					handling capacity to accept the maximum output of the DSP system   
					or the external amps that will drive them.   
					Place the MAIN SPEAKERS in the normal position.   
					Place the FRONT EFFECT SPEAKERS further apart than the   
					MAIN SPEAKERS, on either side of and a few feet behind and above   
					the MAIN SPEAKER pair.   
					Place the REAR EFFECT SPEAKERS behind your listening   
					position.They should be nearly six feet up from the floor.   
					Main speaker   
					Effect speaker   
					Center speaker   
					Place the CENTER SPEAKER precisely between the two MAIN   
					SPEAKERS. (To avoid interference, keep the speaker above or   
					below the television monitor, or use a magnetically shielded speaker.)   
					If using a SUBWOOFER, such as a Yamaha Active Servo   
					Subwoofer System, the position of the speaker is not so critical   
					because low bass tones are not highly directional.

				REAR PANEL SWITCH AND CONTROL SETTINGS   
					GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONNECTIONS   
					There are several switches and controls on the rear panel that   
					you’ll have to check before operating your system, and it’s a good   
					idea to do it before you connect cables. Locate the MAIN LEVEL   
					slide switch (3) and FRONT MIX slide switch (D). Make sure the   
					MAIN LEVEL switch is set to “0 dB” and the FRONT MIX switch is set   
					to “OFF” for 7 or 6 speaker driving.   
					Make sure that you have the left (L) and right (R) channels   
					correctly connected.That means that jacks marked “L” on this unit   
					must be connected to jacks marked “L” on other units. Likewise with   
					the “R” jacks.This is easy if you remember to always use the red plug   
					for the “R” jacks and the white plug for the “L” jacks.   
					With speaker connections you must also be sure that the polarity   
					is correct. For each amplifier and each channel, connect the plus (+)   
					terminal of the amplifier to the plus terminal of the speaker, and   
					connect the minus (–) terminal of the amplifier to the minus terminal   
					of the speaker.To keep track of polarity, use a speaker cable that has   
					one of the two wires marked by a stripe or a different color.   
					In a 5 or 4 speaker system, set the FRONT MIX switch to “ON”.   
					Next, set the NTSC/PAL switch (B) to the position corresponding   
					to the standard which your video equipment employs. (General Model   
					only)

				CONNECTING TO S VIDEO JACKS   
					If your video cassette recorder, video disc player, etc. and your   
					monitor are equipped with “S” (high-resolution) video terminals,   
					connect them to this unit’s S VIDEO jacks, and connect this unit’s   
					S VIDEO MONITOR OUT jack to the “S” video input of your monitor.   
					Otherwise, connect the composite video jacks from your video   
					cassette recorder, video disc player, etc. to the VIDEO jacks of this   
					unit, and connect this unit’s VIDEO MONITOR OUT jack to the   
					composite video input of your monitor.

					NOTE: If your unit is the General Model, be sure the NTSC/PAL   
					switch has been correctly set to the standard that your video   
					equipment employs. Singapore model has no switch and uses the   
					NTSC standard, while other models without a switch use the PAL   
					standard.   
					Notes about the Video superimpose   
					● 
					If you watch a video source that is connected to both S VIDEO and   
					VIDEO input jacks of this unit, signals of screen display information   
					are output from only the S VIDEO MONITOR OUT jack.   
					Video cassette recorder 1   
					Video cassette recorder 2   
					● 
					When no video signal is input to either S VIDEO or VIDEO input   
					jacks of this unit, signals of screen display information are output   
					from both S VIDEO MONITOR OUT and VIDEO MONITOR OUT   
					jacks with a color background.   
					* For the General Model, if the NTSC/PAL switch on the rear panel   
					is set to “PAL”, nothing will be output from either S VIDEO   
					MONITOR OUT or VIDEO MONITOR OUT jack in this case.

					CONNECTING SPEAKER SYSTEMS   
					Connect the SPEAKERS terminals to your speakers with wire of   
					the proper gauge, cut as short as possible. If the connections are   
					faulty, no sound will be heard from the speakers. Make sure that the   
					polarity of the speaker wires is correct, that is, + and – markings are   
					observed. If these wires are reversed, the sound will be unnatural   
					and will lack bass. Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other   
					or any other metal part as this could damage this unit and/or   
					speakers.   
					Make a connection as figured below with a commercially   
					available scart-plug connector cable.   
					NOTE: Use speakers with the specified impedance shown on the   
					Monitor TV   
					rear of this unit.   
					No connection   
					Red: positive (+)   
					Black: negative (–)

					➁ Insert the bare wire.   
					[Remove approx. 5mm (1/4”)   
					insulation from the speaker   
					wires.]

					cable   
					secure the wire.   
					NOTE: Banana Plug connections are also possible (Australia and   
					General models only). Simply insert the Banana Plug connector into   
					the corresponding terminal.

				CONNECTING THE MAIN SPEAKERS TO THIS UNIT   
					Connect the MAIN speakers to the MAIN speaker output   
					terminals of this unit. Make sure that the jumper bars between the   
					PRE OUT and MAIN IN jacks on the rear panel are in place. It is also   
					possible to use an external power amplifier if more power is desired.   
					In this case, remove the jumper bars and connect the PRE OUT   
					jacks to the INPUT jacks of a stereo power amplifier with a stereo pin   
					cable—making sure to connect the left and right channels correctly.   
					Connect the MAIN speakers to the speaker output terminals of the   
					power amplifier.   
					Main speaker

					NOTE: If an external amplifier is used for the main speakers, it is   
					recommended to use the MAIN speaker terminals of this unit for the   
					rear effect speakers.   
					INPUT   
					Connect the REAR output jacks to the MAIN IN jacks with a pin cord.   
					This combination is highly upgraded and ideal for the division of   
					sound quality, because the rear channel output of the Audio/Video   
					system is equally important as the center channel.

					switch to “A OR B” (bottom position). If using two CENTER speakers,   
					connect them to the A and B terminals, and set the switch to “A + B”   
					(top position). If, however, you will not be using a CENTER speaker,   
					be sure to set the Center Mode to “PHNTM” (phantom). (See page   
					26.)   
					This unit   
					NOTE:The speaker connections above are fine for most   
					applications. If for some reason, however, you wish to use an external   
					power amp for any or all of the effect and center channels, connect   
					the line level output jack(s) for each channel to the INPUT jacks of   
					the external amp and connect the corresponding speaker pair to the

				2-7. DESCRIPTIONS OF THE SOUND FIELD PROGRAMS   
					The following list gives brief descriptions of the sound fields produced by each of the DSP programs. Keep in mind that most of these are   
					precise digital recreations of actual acoustic environments.The data for them was recorded at the locations described using sophisticated sound   
					field measurement equipment.   
					* The channel level balance between the left rear effect speaker and the right rear effect speaker may vary depending on the sound   
					field you are listening to.This is due to the fact that most of these sound field recreations are actual acoustic environments.   
					1. CONCERT HALL 1   
					Hall A in Europe:   
					2. CONCERT HALL 2   
					Hall C in Europe:   
					This is a large fan-shaped concert hall in   
					Munich which has approximately 2500   
					seats. Almost the whole interior is made of   
					wood.There is relatively little reflection   
					from the right and left walls, and sounds   
					spread finely and beautifully.   
					A classic shoe-box type concert hall with   
					approximately 1700 seats. Pillars and   
					ornate carvings create extremely complex   
					reflections.Those reflections and the   
					reflections from all directions of the hall   
					produce a very full, rich sound.   
					Hall B in Europe:   
					This is a large shoe-box type concert hall   
					with approximately 2500 seats. Almost the   
					whole interior except the ceiling is made of   
					wood, including mahogany reflective   
					panels. Special reflective paneling above   
					the stage produces strong frontal   
					reflections which tend to reinforce the   
					direct sound from the stage.This hall has a   
					very solid, powerful sound.   
					Hall D in U.S.A.:   
					This is a large 2600-seat concert hall in the   
					United States which features a fairly   
					traditional European design.The interior is   
					relatively simple, suggesting an American   
					taste. Sound of the middle and high   
					frequencies are richly and beautifully   
					reproduced.

					Live Concert:   
					A large round concert hall with a rich   
					surround effect. Pronounced reflections   
					from all directions emphasize the   
					extension of sounds.You will experience   
					the sound field with a great deal of   
					presence sitting at about the center   
					position near the stage.   
					This sound field is also effective for   
					karaoke.This is because you feel as if you   
					are standing on a real stage.   
					4. CHURCH   
					6. JAZZ CLUB   
					Village Gate:   
					A church in Tokyo shaped like a cross.There is the altar at the   
					upper side of the “cross”, and a pipe organ at the opposite side   
					(the lower side of the cross). It is a very unique shape with walls   
					all leaning inside, and pillars standing by the side of walls only.   
					The sound field has moderate reverberations of which time is 2.5   
					seconds.   
					A jazz club in New York. It is in a basement   
					and has a relatively spacious floor area.

					This program gives you long delays   
					between direct sounds and effect sounds,   
					and extraordinarily spacious feel of a large   
					stadium.   
					The data of the sound field of a relatively   
					narrow space is used for the front presence   
					side. A moderately sized spatial sound field   
					without excessive sound extension and   
					reverberations gives reality to the characters   
					in a drama.   
					The data of the sound field of an opera   
					house is used for the rear surround side. In   
					a stereo program, background music is   
					reproduced more beautifully with much   
					depth, enhancing sound effects on the   
					drama. It’s natural sound effect will not make   
					you tired from long watching.   
					Disco:   
					This program recreates the acoustic   
					Variety/Sports:   
					Though the front presence side of the sound   
					field is relatively narrow, the rear surround   
					side employs the sound environment of a   
					large concert hall. With this program, you   
					can enjoy watching various TV programs   
					such as the news, variety shows, music   
					programs or sports programs. In a stereo   
					broadcast of a sports game, the   
					environment of a lively disco in the heart of   
					a very lively city.The sound is dense and   
					highly concentrated. It is also characterized   
					by a high-energy, “immediate” sound.   
					commentator is oriented at the center   
					position, and the shouts and the atmosphere   
					in the stadium spreads on the surround side,   
					however, spreading of them to the rear side   
					is properly restrained.

					Classical/Opera:   
					10.VIDEO THEATER   
					Fantasy:   
					This program provides excellent depth of   
					vocals and overall clarity, restraining   
					excessive reverberation.   
					Powerful reverberations on the front   
					presence side of the sound field adds   
					depth to the image, so expanding the   
					image space. On the rear surround side,   
					sounds are reproduced lightly but vividly.   
					The sound field of this program matches   
					image effects of animated films regardless   
					of the genre. Conversations, sounds and   
					sound effects are reproduced with vitality   
					by this program. A source in stereo will   
					obtain more effect, letting you steep   
					For opera, the orchestra pit and the stage   
					are ideally combined, letting you feel a full   
					presence sound.The rear surround side of   
					the sound field is relatively moderated,   
					however, it reproduces beautiful sound by   
					the use of the data of a concert hall.You   
					will not be tired from long watching of an   
					opera.   
					yourself in a fantastic world of animations.   
					Pop/Rock:   
					This program produces an enthusiastic   
					atmosphere and lets you feel that you are   
					in the midst of the action, as if attending an   
					actual jazz or rock concert.   
					The indirect sound constituent spreads on   
					the surround side of the sound field by the   
					use of data of a large round hall for the   
					surround side, so the image space around   
					the screen and the sound space are fully   
					expanded.   
					Classic Film:   
					This program is for reproducing monaural   
					video sources (old movies etc.). Monaural   
					sounds are reproduced with much   
					presence by the front presence side of the   
					sound field and optimum reverberation   
					effect.The use of the center speaker   
					makes conversations more audible,   
					obtaining a pleasant mix of conversations   
					and picture.

					movie theaters, so the reverberations of   
					the sound field itself are restrained as   
					much as possible.The three dimensional   
					feeling of the sound field is emphasized,   
					and dialog is precisely oriented on the   
					screen.You can enjoy watching Sci-Fi,   
					adventure movies, etc. with this program.   
					70 mm General:   
					This program is for reproducing sounds on   
					a 70 mm multi-track film, and characterized   
					by a soft and extensive sound field.The   
					front presence side of the sound field is   
					relatively narrow. It spatially spreads all   
					around and toward the screen, restraining   
					echo effect of conversations without losing   
					clarity. For the surround side, the data of   
					the sound field of an opera house is used   
					on an enlarged scale, so the harmony of   
					music or chorus sounds beautifully in a   
					wide space at the rear of the sound field.   
					Enhanced:   
					This program ideally simulates the multi-   
					surround speaker systems of the 35 mm   
					film theater. Surround signals by the Dolby   
					Pro Logic decoder are processed on the   
					surround side of the sound field based on   
					the data of the sound field of a shoe-box   
					hall.The surround effects produced by this   
					sound field folds the viewer naturally from   
					the rear to the left and right and toward the   
					screen.   
					NOTE: The Dolby Pro Logic Surround system is designed to be used   
					with program material (mainly videotaped movie soundtracks)   
					encoded with the Dolby Surround system.   
					NOTE: If the main and center channel sound is considerably altered   
					by overadjustment of the BASS or TREBLE controls, the relationship   
					with the rear channels may produce an unnatural effect.

				CREATING YOUR OWN SOUND FIELDS   
					3-1. SELECTING AND EDITING PROGRAM PARAMETERS   
					(2) Reverberations.These are caused by reflections from more than   
					one surface—walls, ceiling, the back of the room—so numerous that   
					they merge together to form a continuous sonic “afterglow”.They are   
					non-directional, and lessen the clarity of the direct sound.   
					WHAT IS A SOUND FIELD?   
					In order to explain the impressive functions of the DSP system,   
					we need to first understand what a sound field really is.   
					Direct sound, early reflections and subsequent reverberation   
					taken together help us to determine the subjective size and shape of   
					the room, and it is this information that the DSP system reproduces   
					in order to create sound fields.   
					What really creates the rich, full tones of a live instrument are the   
					multiple reflections from the walls of the room. In addition to making   
					the sound “live”, these reflections enable us to tell where the player is   
					situated, and the size and shape of the room in which we are sitting.   
					We can even tell whether it is highly reflective, with steel and glass   
					surfaces, or more absorbent—wood panels, carpeting and curtains.   
					If you could create the appropriate early reflections and   
					subsequent reverberations in your listening room, you would be able   
					to create your own listening environment.The acoustics in your room   
					could be changed to those of a concert hall, a dance floor, or virtually   
					any size room at all.This ability to create sound fields at will is exactly   
					what Yamaha has done with the DSP system.   
					THE ELEMENTS OF A SOUND FIELD   
					In any environment, in addition to the direct sound coming   
					straight to our ears from the player’s instrument, there are two distinct   
					types of sound reflections that combine to make up the sound field:   
					DSP programs consist of some parameters to determine   
					apparent room size, reverberation time, distance from you to the   
					performer, etc. In each program, those parameters are preset with   
					values precisely calculated by Yamaha to create the sound field   
					unique for the program. It is recommended to use DSP programs   
					without changing values of parameters, however, this unit also allows   
					you to create your own sound fields. Starting with one of the built-in   
					programs, you can adjust those parameters. Even if power is turned   
					off, your custom sound fields will remain in the DSP system’s   
					memory for about two weeks.The following pages detail how to   
					make your own sound fields.   
					(1) Early Reflections. Reflected sounds reach our ears extremely   
					rapidly (50 ms — 100 ms after the direct sound), after reflecting from   
					one surface only—for example, from the ceiling or a wall.These   
					reflections fall into specific patterns as shown in the diagram on page   
					42 for any particular environment, and provide vital information to our   
					ears. Early reflections actually add clarity to the direct sound.

				In addition to the “TYPE” parameter which selects the sub-   
					programs within each sound field program (e.g. “Hall A in Europe”   
					and “Hall B in Europe” for program 1, “CONCERT HALL 1”), each   
					program also has a set of parameters that allow you to change the   
					characteristics of the acoustic environment to create precisely the   
					effect you want. These parameters correspond to the many natural   
					acoustic factors that create the sound field you experience in an   
					actual concert hall or other listening environment. The size of the   
					room, for example, affects the length of time between the “early   
					reflections”—that is, the first few widely spaced reflections you   
					hear after the direct sound. The “ROOM SIZE” parameter provided   
					in many of the DSP programs alters the timing between these   
					reflections, thus changing the shape of the “room” you hear. In   
					addition to room size, the shape of the room and the   
					characteristics of its surfaces have a significant effect on the final   
					sound. Surfaces that absorb sound, for example, cause the   
					reflections and reverberations to die out quicker, while highly   
					reflective surfaces allow the reflections to carry on for a longer   
					period of time. The DSP parameters allow you to control these and   
					many other factors that contribute to your personal sound field,   
					allowing you to essentially “redesign” the concert halls and rooms   
					provided to create custom-tailored listening environments that   
					ideally match your mood and music.   
					1. With the desired program selected, press the Parameter Select   
					(▼) key on the remote control unit once. This will recall the next   
					parameter after the program type. In the case of the CONCERT   
					HALL 1 program, for example, this would be the INIT. DLY   
					parameter.You can continue pressing the Parameter Select (▼)   
					key to select other parameters in sequence. Press the Parameter   
					Select (▲) key to scroll upward through the parameter list.   
					2. When the desired parameter has been recalled, use the   
					Parameter + (increment) and – (decrement) keys to change its   
					value to create the effect you want. + increases the value of the   
					selected parameter, and – decreases the value of the selected   
					parameter. In both cases you can hold the key down for   
					continuous incrementing or decrementing. The display will pause   
					for a moment at the initial value of the parameter as a reminder.   
					(On the monitor screen, mark at the head of parameter name   
					* 
					disappears at the initial value of the parameter.)   
					NOTE: Parameter edits made in this way will remain in effect even   
					with power cut due to power failure or the power plug   
					disconnected from the AC outlet for up to about two weeks, after   
					which all parameters, as well as other adjustments or settings on   
					this unit, will return to their initial values or conditions.   
					Refer to “3-2. DESCRIPTIONS OF THE DIGITAL SOUND   
					FIELD PARAMETERS” on page 42 for a description of what each   
					parameter does, how it effects the sound, and its control range.

					Not all of the following parameters are found in every program.   
					● 
					● 
					ROOM SIZE   
					INIT DLY (Initial Delay)   
					How it Affects the Sound:   
					How it Affects the Sound:   
					Changes the apparent size of the music venue.The larger the   
					value, the larger the simulated room will sound.   
					Changes the apparent distance from the source sound.   
					Since the distance between a sound source and a reflective   
					surface determines the delay between the direct sound and the first   
					reflection, this parameter changes the location of the sound source   
					within the acoustic environment.   
					What it Does:   
					Adjusts the timing between the early reflections. Early reflections   
					are the first group of reflections you hear before the subsequent,   
					dense reverberation begins.   
					What it Does:   
					Control Range:   
					Adjusts the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection   
					heard by the listener.   
					0.1 – 2.0   
					Standard setting is 1.0.   
					Control Range:   
					Changing this parameter from 1 to 2 increases the apparent   
					volume of the room eight times (length, width, and height all   
					doubled).   
					1 – 49 milliseconds   
					For a small living room this parameter would be set for a small   
					value. Large values for a big room. Larger values produce an echo   
					effect.

					LIVENESS   
					REV.TIME (Reverberation Time)   
					How it Affects the Sound:   
					How it Affects the Sound:   
					This parameter changes the apparent reflectivity of the walls in   
					the hall.   
					The natural reverberation time of a room depends primarily on its   
					size and the characteristics of its inner surfaces.This parameter,   
					therefore, changes the apparent size of the acoustic environment   
					over an extremely wide range.   
					The early reflections from a sound source will lose intensity   
					(decay) much faster in a room with acoustically absorbent wall   
					surfaces than in one which has mostly reflective surfaces. A room   
					with highly reflective surfaces in which the early reflections decay   
					slowly is termed “live”, while a room with absorbent characteristics in   
					which the reflections decay rapidly is termed “dead”.The LIVENESS   
					parameter lets you adjust the early reflection decay rate, and thus the   
					“liveness” of the room.   
					What it Does:   
					Adjusts the amount of time it takes for the level of the dense,   
					subsequent reverberation sound to decay by 60 dB (@ 1 kHz).   
					Control Range:   
					1.0 – 5.0 seconds.   
					What it Does:   
					The reverb time in a small-to-medium size hall would be between   
					1 and 2, and in a large hall it is normally between 2 and 3.   
					Changes the rate at which the early reflections decay.   
					Control Range:   
					0 – 10.

					DIR. ENHANCEMENT (Directional Enhancement)   
					DOLBY PRO LOGIC (for MOVIE THEATER only)   
					This circuit emphasizes the position of sound. If this circuit is   
					By adding the Dolby Pro Logic Decoder to the DSP effect, the full   
					activated, the unity constituent of the input left and right channels   
					(those signals which are common to the left and right channels) will   
					be output from the center speaker, and the disparity constituent of   
					the left and right signals (the difference between the left and right   
					channels) will be output from the surround speakers.   
					presence of a 70 mm film theater is reproduced without deteriorating   
					the channel separation.   
					With monaural sound sources, almost all sounds are output from   
					the center speaker instead of the left and right main speakers.   
					Because the unity constituent signal determines localization,   
					precise localization is obtained even though a listener is left or right   
					of the ideal center listening position.   
					Selectivity:   
					ON/OFF   
					The primary sound field around the screen is obtained according   
					to processing based on left, center and right speakers as the sound   
					source. Also, with the processing of the surround sound source   
					based on the disparity constituent (which includes most of the   
					indirectional sound constituent), sound diffusion to the rear speakers   
					is obtained.Therefore, directional enhancement is an especially   
					effective processing option for vocal or operas.   
					● 
					DELAY   
					Adjusts the delay between the direct sounds (at the main left,   
					center and main right channels) and the effect sounds (at the front   
					effect and rear effect channels).The larger the value, the later the   
					effect sounds are generated.   
					With monaural sound sources, almost all sounds are output from   
					the center speaker instead of the left and right main speakers.   
					Control Range:   
					15 – 30 milliseconds   
					Selectable levels:   
					OFF/MIN/MID/MAX
