Dual EQ
OFF or ON. Default: OFF. When set to ON, the 5-band parametric equalizer can be set indi-
vidually for left and right channel.
Volume
Mirrors the direct volume control via Volume knob or encoder 1. The output level can be set
between -96 dB and +6 dB, mostly in steps of 0.5 dB. The encoders use a special accelerator
algorithm. Turning the knob fast increases the steps. It is therefore very easy to quickly jump
from 0 dB to mute by a quick left turn of the knob. At moderate turning speed the changes in dB
follow the intended volume change. Only at slower turning the finest steps will be used.
Balance
Mirrors the balance control in the VOL screen. Adjustable from L 100 (left) through <C> (center)
to R100 (right).A quick turn jumps from L or R to <C> and vice versa.
Mute
Mutes the output. Can also be controlled via the VOL screen and
