tween Dolby Digital, Pro Logic or DTS, according to the

input signals.

·

LED Channel Status Indicators

The MSD4 includes seven LED’s on the front panel to in-

dicate what type of operating signals are being received.

·

Front Panel Mode Nomenclature

Dolby Digital, Pro Logic or DTS nomenclature illuminates

to show which decoding mode is in use.

·

Adjustable Channel Time Delays

Signals to the Center channel and Surround channels can

be time delayed. This feature can be used to correct for dif-

ferent listening distances from the center speaker and sur-

round speakers relative to the front speakers.

·

Precision Tracking Volume Control

An electronic Volume Control adjusts all six channels with

tracking accuracy better than 0.5dB.

LED Delay/Volume Indicator

The front panel two digit LED reads Volume in percent. It

also indicates time delay in milliseconds during time delay

calibration, and channel level in dB during surround level

calibration.

Built-In System Level Calibration Generator

A built-in test signal generator can be switched manually or

automatically through all system channels for surround

level calibration. The levels can be adjusted plus or minus

12dB.

·

Re-EQ + TM

Re-Equalization™ filter and Timbre Matching™ modify

the sound tracks created for a large theater so they are more

enjoyable in the smaller listening room of a home theater.

·

Late Night Dynamic Audio Compression

With select encoded Dolby Digital sound tracks, a dynamic

volume level compressor can be switched in to reduce the

wide dynamic range of music and sound effects. This fea-

ture can be very useful for late night listening or when you

have close neighbors.
