Dynamic Range Control (DRC)
DRC
adds or removes a degree of compression to compensate for the differences in the
dynamic range between radio stations. For example, a station broadcasting popular
music may have a high level of compression applied since the emphasis is on a constant
high listening level. Where as a station broadcasting classical music will have little or no
compression as the listener requires all of the highs and lows in the music to define the
detail.
There are three levels of compression:
DRC
off = No compression applied
DRC
high = Maximum compression applied (this is the default)
DRC
low = Low compression applied
The best way to determine which of these settings suits you best is to experiment with them
on a variety of stations.
