[. . . ] In CINEMA-DSP sound field programs, YAMAHA's exclusive DSP processing is added to the right and left Main and Center channels, so the listener can enjoy realistic dialogue, depth of sound, smooth transition between sound sources, and a surround sound field that goes beyond the screen. When a DTS or Dolby Digital signal is detected, the CINEMA-DSP sound field processor automatically chooses the most suitable sound field program for that signal. L SURROUND SOUND FIELD PRESENCE SOUND FIELD DIALOG EFFECT MUSIC R SURROUND SOUND FIELD In addition to the DSP, this unit is equipped with various precise decoders; Dolby Pro Logic/Pro Logic /DTS Neo: 6 decoder for 2-channel sources, Dolby Digital/DTS decoder for multi-channel sources and Dolby Digital Matrix 6. 1 or DTS ES decoder for a rear center channel. You can select the CINEMA-DSP program to optimize these decoders and the DSP sound patterns depending on the input source. 32 CINEMA-DSP The 6-channel soundtracks found on 70-mm film produce precise sound field localization and rich, deep sound without using matrix processing. This unit's MOVIE THEATER programs provide the same quality of sound and sound localization that 6-channel soundtracks do. The built-in Dolby Digital or DTS decoder brings the professional-quality sound designed for movie theaters into your home. With this unit's MOVIE THEATER programs, you can recreate a dynamic sound that gives you the feeling of being at a public theater in your listening room by using Dolby Digital or DTS technology. INTRODUCTION I Dolby Digital/DTS + DSP sound field effect Presence DSP sound field These programs use YAMAHA's tri-field DSP processing on each of the Dolby Digital or DTS signals for the front, left surround and right surround channels. This processing enables this unit to reproduce the immense sound field and surround expression of a Dolby Digital- or DTSequipped movie theater without sacrificing the clear separation of all channels. Right surround DSP sound field PREPARATION Left surround DSP sound field I Dolby Digital Matrix 6. 1/DTS ES + DSP sound field effect These programs provide you with the maximum experience of the spacious surround effects since an extra rear center DSP sound field created from the rear center channel is added. BASIC OPERATION I Dolby Pro Logic + DSP sound field effect Presence DSP sound field Surround DSP sound field Most movie software has 4-channel (left, center, right and surround) sound information encoded by Dolby Surround matrix processing and stored on the left and right tracks. These signals are processed by the Dolby Pro Logic decoder. The MOVIE THEATER programs are designed to recreate the spaciousness and delicate nuances of sound that tend to be lost in the encoding and decoding processes. ADVANCED OPERATION I Dolby Pro Logic ADDITIONAL INFORMATION /DTS Neo: 6 Dolby Pro Logic and DTS Neo: 6 equipped on this unit decode the 2-channel Dolby Surround software into five discrete full-range channels (3 channels in front and 2 or 3 channels in rear). They also provide two modes; MOVIE/ CINEMA for movies and MUSIC for 2-channel source. APPENDIX English 33 CINEMA-DSP CINEMA-DSP Programs I For moive programs: No. 8 to 10 According to the input signal format, this unit automatically chooses the appropriate decoder and DSP sound field pattern. 5 Program ENTERTAINMENT/ Game TV SPORTS Features This program adds a deep and spatial feeling to video game sounds. 6 With this program, you can enjoy watching various TV programs such as news, variety shows, music programs or sports programs. In a stereo broadcast of a sports game, the commentator is oriented at the center position, and the shouts and the atmosphere in the stadium spread on the surround side, while their spread to the rear is properly restrained. This program is provided for reproducing monaural video sources (such as old movies). The program produces the optimum reverberation to create sound depth by using only the presence sound field. APPENDIX 7 MONO MOVIE English 35 TUNING Connecting the Antennas Both AM and FM indoor antennas are included with this unit. In general, these antennas should provide sufficient signal strength. Connect each antenna correctly to the designated terminals. FREQUENCY STEP switch (China and General models only) Because the interstation frequency spacing differs in different areas, set the FM AM FREQUENCY STEP switch (locating on the rear panel) according to the frequency spacing in your area. North, Central and South America: 100 kHz/10 kHz Other area: 50 kHz/9 kHz Before setting this switch, disconnect the AC power plug of this unit from the AC outlet. 100kHz/10kHz I Connecting the AM loop antenna 1 Set up the AM loop antenna, then connect it. 50kHz/9kHz FREQUENCY STEP 2 Press and hold the tab to insert the AM loop antenna lead wires into the AM ANT and GND terminals.
