SPEAKER SETUP:
These parameters are for setting the volume balance of the surround monitor
speakers. Select the OSC (Oscillator) parameter and choose from PINK NOISE, 500-2K (pink noise
through a 500 Hz to 2 kHz BPF), 1K (1 kHz sinewave), or 50 Hz (50 Hz sinewave). Use the ON/OFF
button to turn the Oscillator on and off. When on, the Oscillator outputs a signal at –20 dB to the
Surround Channels whose icons are highlighted. You can turn on and off Oscillator output for
speakers individually. Speaker icons can be selected by using the cursor buttons. The signal phase of
the LFE Channel can be reversed by using the SW phase button. When ROTATE is on, the Oscillator
signal is output by each speaker in turn in a clockwise direction (3 second signal, 2 second pause).
SURR. MODE:
This indicates the currently selected Surround mode, which is set on the Surround
Mode page (
see page 97
).
MONITOR MATRIX:
This is used to select the Surround Monitor Matrix. In 6.1 Surround mode,
you can select 6.1, 5.1, 3-1, or ST. In 5.1 Surround mode, you can select 5.1, 3-1, or ST. In 3-1 Sur-
round mode, you can select 3-1 or ST.
When a down mix Monitor Matrix is selected, you can attenuate signals by using the ATT parameters.
You can use the Surround Monitor settings in Stereo mode, but Monitor Matrix is fixed to ST.
The following screen shows an example in 6.1 Surround mode and 3-1 Monitor Matrix mode.
• BASS MANAGEMENT
You can set the filter and attenuator settings for each Surround Monitor Channel using eight preset
Bass Management modes. The following presets are available:
ATT1: Adjusts the level difference between LR and LsRs.
ATT2: Adjusts the level difference between C and Bs.
AMP: Corrects the LFE channel level.
Note:
If you had been monitoring with the surround mode set to 6.1 and the monitor matrix mode
set to 6.1 on DM2000 units with system software earlier than V2.1, the playback may not always be
correct on V2.1.
Note:
If you choose monitor matrix mode = 3-1, you must set the following three attenuation amounts
to the same value.
• ATT1 for surround mode 3-1
• ATT4 for surround mode 5.1
• ATT5 for surround mode 6.1
These ATT values are not attenuators for down-mixing; rather, they are used as monitor adjustment
attenuators for lowering the playback volume of the Ls, Rs, Ls2, and Rs2 speakers.
