x D. RANGE (Dynamic range
compressor)
Lets you compress the dynamic range of the
sound track. This may be useful when you
want to watch movies at low volumes late at
night. Dynamic range compression is possible
with Dolby Digital sources only.
• COMP. OFF
The dynamic range is not compressed.
• COMP. STD
The dynamic range is compressed as
intended by the recording engineer.
• COMP. MAX
The dynamic range is compressed
dramatically.
Tip
Dynamic range compressor lets you compress the
dynamic range of the soundtrack based on the
dynamic range information included in the Dolby
Digital signal. "COMP. STD" is the standard setting,
but it only enacts light compression. Therefore, we
recommend using the "COMP. MAX" setting. This
greatly compresses the dynamic range and lets you
view movies late at night at low volumes. Unlike
analog limiters, the levels are predetermined and
provide a very natural compression.
