Use the ^ and
v
keys to select the channel to adjust, and the
<
and
>
keys to change the value
from
0.0
to
1.0
in steps of
0.1
, representing the gain factor desired.
0.0
means no
contribution from the source channel;
1.0
means the source channel is mixed in at full level (no
reduction). Depending on the levels chosen for the source channels, it may be desirable to
reduce the level of the target channel.
Do not press
OK
after each adjustment; adjust the four channels on this screen as desired and
then press
OK
, and the screen will show the remaining channels:
> (1.0 x LS ) +
(0.0 x RS ) +
(0.0 x LB ) +
(0.0 x RB ) +
After all adjustments are made on this page, press
OK
to exit the
MIX BLOCK
screens, then
press
EXIT
to go back further.
Notice that the default is zero from all other channels and
1.0
from
LS
, as would be expected
for the
LS
channel. This is true of channels 5 and 6 for whatever virtual channel is assigned. In
the default example, channel 6 would show
1.0
for
RS
and
0.0
for the rest.
The mix block settings apply only to the preset in current use. To save them, re-save the preset.
Two further adjustments are applicable only to the input channels assigned to
3
and
4
, and
would be typically used on channel
4
since it is the standard subwoofer channel.
LFE GAIN
--
Standard practice in multichannel playback is to apply 10 dB of inband gain to
the LFE channel. If this gain has not been applied by the source player or the source
preamplifier or receiver, the Realiser can provide it. This can only be done if no bass
management has been applied by the source equipment: in other words, the input
SW
channel is
truly only the LFE channel of the recording and contains no low frequency information from
any other channel.
To access LFE gain, press
MENU
, then
SW
, which must have been assigned to
3
or
4
. The
screen will say:
CH4(4) -> SW vSPKR
>SHOW SPKR POSITIONS
SW vSPKR SETUP1
SW vSPKR SETUP2
Use the ^ and
v
keys to place the cursor on
SW vSPKR SETUP1
. Press
OK
. The screen will
say:
>FILTERS
MIX BLOCK
LFE GAIN 0 dB
LPF MIX: NO
Move the cursor to
LFE GAIN
and use the
<
and
>
keys to adjust the gain. In almost every
case, the correct value will be either
0
, if the source equipment is providing the gain and the
PRIR is not; or
+10
, if neither the source equipment nor the PRIR is applying the gain; or
-10
if both the source equipment and the PRIR are applying the gain. See Bass Considerations.
LPF MIX
-- If it is desired for the Realiser to provide bass management, the mix block will
have been set to redirect the other channels to the
SW
channel. The
LPF MIX
switch applies
