Dynamic range compression
Some DAB broadcasts offer dynamic range compression (DRC). This feature allows
radios to compress the dynamic range of the output audio stream, so that the volume of
quiet sounds is increased, and the volume of loud sounds is reduced. This can be useful
if you are listening to music with a high dynamic range in a noisy environment (for
example, classical music while cooking).
To change the DRC of the unit, select Menu > DRC , and then DRC high , DRC
low or DRC off .
Note: The unit DRC setting does have any effect if DRC data is not included in the
broadcast.
Station order
You can choose the order of the DAB station list to be either Alphanumeric , Ensemble or
Valid . Ensemble lists groups of stations that are broadcast together on the same
ensemble, for example BBC or South Wales local . Valid lists valid stations first,
alphanumerically, then off-air stations.
To change station order, select Menu > Station order > then Alphanumeric ,
Ensemble or Valid .
