Lexicon
6-34
BASS RT
5ms to 48.6s
Works with the MID RT and SIZE parameters to adjust the amount
of time required for low-frequency information to decay below
60dB in level. The BASS RT parameter setting should match the
MID RT parameter setting for more natural effects in smaller
listening spaces.
CALIBRATION
Opens the PANORAMA listening mode CALIBRATION menu, which
can be used to calibrate the PANORAMA listening mode. Refer to
page 6-12 for more information.
CENTER
OFF, -30dB to +12dB
Controls the output level of the Main Zone audio output
connector labeled Center.
CENTER DEPTH
0 to 18
Adjusts the amount of processing applied to the center channel,
changing the perceived distance of the center speaker. Higher
settings increase and lower settings decrease the perceived
distance of the center speaker from the listening position.
CENTER MIX
-25dB to +5dB
Indicates the relative center channel level for downmixing. It is
recommended that you set this parameter to +0dB for film sources
and -5dB for music sources.
CENTER OUTPUT LEVELS (Listening Mode) MODE ADJUST
CNTR DLY SAMPLES
-127 to +127
Controls the relative time offset of the center channel. It is
recommended that you set this parameter to +0 unless the center
channel is not properly timed and the value of the error is known.
COMPRESSION
AUTO, ON, OFF
Reduces wide volume level changes and increases dialog intelligi-
bility at lower listening levels for Dolby Digital input sources. When
set to ON, full compression is applied regardless of volume level.
When set to OFF, compression is not applied. It is recommended
that you set this parameter to AUTO or ON for Dolby Digital input
sources that are listened to at lower volume levels, especially for
nighttime viewing to avoid disturbing others.
CTR WIDTH
MIN, 1 to 6, MAX
Adjusts the center image. When set to MIN, the center image is
heard from just the center speaker. When set to MAX, the center
image is heard from just the front left and right speakers as a
“phantom” center image. When set on the 1 to 6 scale, the center
image is heard in various combinations of the front and center
speakers.
CUSTOM
Opens the CUSTOM menu, which can be used to compare custom
and factory-default versions of the selected listening mode and to
restore the factory default version of the selected listening mode.
CUSTOM (Listening Mode) MODE ADJUST
Setting the BASS RT, MID RT and SIZE parameters to a high
value may produce undesirable or damaging audio.
