Changing the Audio Mode (remote controller
only)
The RDC-7.1 accepts analog, digital, i.LINK (AUDIO)
and multichannel signals for audio input. You can
choose the kind of signal to be played for a specific
device. For Zone 2, the RDC-7.1 accepts only analog
and digital signals for audio input.
Auto (XXX) (automatic detection):
With this setting,
the RDC-7.1 automatically detects whether the input
signal is digital or analog. When a digital signal is not
input, then the analog signal is played. This setting only
appears if a digital input is selected for the Digital Input
setting at Setup Menu

Using the Re-EQ Function
This function corrects soundtracks with a strong treble
level to the home theater level. This correction should
be made when the treble sounds from the front speakers
are too strong.
Hint:
This can also be set on the menu with OSD. The listening
mode which the Re-EQ effect can be applied to has a
Re-EQ option in the Listening Mode Setup menu.
Using the Late Night Function
(only in Dolby Digital)
The difference between loud and quiet sounds is very
large in pictures produced for movie theaters, so you have
to raise the volume level to catch environmental sounds
and human conversations. Since the Late Night Function
is able to reduce the difference between loud and quiet
sounds, you can hear quiet sounds without raising the
entire volume level. This function is helpful when you
enjoy movies late at night by turning down sounds.
This function is released when putting the RDC-7.1 into
the standby status.
Hint:
This function can also be set on the menu with OSD
(See page 109).
