Although Television 5-Band Light is similar to TV 5B Gen, its multiband compression ratio is
lower (2:1) for more subtle action. This is an excellent preset for content known to be
consistent that needs just a bit of spectral polish. Note that this preset allows more variations
without correction, but for already consistent content, this is not an issue.

A frequent user question is, “How do I adjust the preset?”. There is tremendous range in the
many (over 200) audio processing and loudness control parameters that are provided. This
makes the AERO.100 extremely flexible and usable for any content type. It also means that
proper adjustment requires time and the desire to listen to the results. Fortunately there are a
few core controls that provide the needed control for a wide range of content. Here are some
suggestions for making adjustments.
First, read the description of the presets. After selecting a factory preset listen to a range of
content before making changes. If you start with TV 5B Gen and you immediately feel there is
too much compression then change to TV 5B Light or Sports. Listening off-line before putting
the unit in the air path provides an opportunity to A/B presets and find something close to what
you want.
To compare settings:
1.
Navigate to Instance 1 > DCR Program 1 > Load Preset
2.
Double click any preset and it will load into the current position and be active.
3.
Double click on the Preset that you want to compare to the first one. This is now live
and the first selection is automatically placed in the Recall Backup button.
4.
Pressing the Recall Backup will swap the current preset and the Backup preset to make
listening and measurement comparisons easy to make.
AEROMAX processing is used with every type of content; prerecorded and live sports of all
kinds; old and new movie channels; old and new TV content; news; interview; and dramas to
name a few. The large number of adjustable parameters allows the AERO.100 to be highly
tuned to individual program types. However, for use by stations broadcasting mixed formats
there are a few parameters which control perhaps 90% of the sound of the unit.
