Introduction to Sound Modes
There are three basic sound options: Stereo/
Direct, Standard or Advanced Surround.
Stereo/Direct
When you select STEREO or DIRECT, you will
hear the source through just the front left and
right speakers (and possibly your subwoofer
depending on your speaker settings). Dolby
Digital and DTS multi-channel sources are
downmixed to stereo.
In STEREO, the audio plays according to the
surround setup settings and you can still use
Midnight mode, Loudness mode and Tone
Control functions.
When you select DIRECT, the audio bypasses
the tone controls and channel levels for the
most accurate reproduction of a source.
Standard modes
The Standard mode can be used to decode
Dolby Digital, DTS or Dolby Surround sources.
The surround mode options (below) can also
add surround sound to regular stereo sources.
You can identify Dolby Digital software by the
1 or marks. Most Dolby
Surround software is marked 3, but
unmarked software may also incorporate Dolby
Surround.
Choose one of the following to add depth to a 2
channel source:
Pro Logic
This mode gives 4.1 channel surround sound. It
is less sensitive to the quality of the source
material, so may be useful when Pro Logic II
Movie/ Music modes do not give good results.
Pro Logic II Movie
This mode gives 5.1 channel surround sound. It
is suitable for movies, especially those recorded
in Dolby Surround. The channel separation and
movement of surround effects is comparable to
Dolby Digital 5.1.
Pro Logic II Music
This mode gives 5.1 channel surround sound
and is suitable for music. Compared to Pro
Logic II Movie, the surround effect is more
enveloping.
Advanced Surround modes
These are designed to be used with multi
channel surround sound audio/visual sources
(like DVDs and LDs). Most Advanced Surround
modes are designed to be used with film
soundtracks, but some modes are also suited
for music sources. Try different settings with
various soundtracks to see which you like.
Movie
Simulates the relaxed environment of a movie
theater, and is suitable for watching movies on
sources marked 1 ( ) or
R
.
Music
Simulates the acoustic environment of a large
concert hall and is suitable for music or
musical sources marked 1 ( ) or
R
.
Virtual Surround Back (VIRTL SB)
(VSX-D512 only)
The Virtual Surround Back effect simulates 6.1
surround channel listening, giving the impres-
sion that there is a surround back speaker in
your system when listening to a 5.1 channel
source.
