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.
COMPo
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.
