Introduction to built-in DSP features

Important

We recommend that you record the settings in the sheet on page 135 after you have completed audio adjustments.

DSP modes

This unit features two DSP modes: the network mode and the standard mode. You can switch between DSP modes as desired. Initially, the DSP mode is set to the standard mode. (Refer to Switching the DSP setting mode on page 117.) ! Auto TA and EQ can be used for the stan-

dard mode only. (Refer to Auto TA and EQ

(auto-time alignment and auto-equalizing)

on page 106 and Using the auto-equalizer on page 105.)

! A 2-way front speaker output can be used

for the network mode only.

Note

Switching the DSP mode erases the current adjusting audio settings (LAST MEMORY). If needed, memorize it into custom settings (CUSTOM1, CUSTOM2 or CUSTOM3).

Output channel modes (2CH/Multi CH)

This unit has two output channel modes for each DSP mode: the 2-channel mode and the multi-channel mode. You can switch between output channel modes depending on the source that you have selected. ! Dolby Pro Logic II/Dolby Digital EX and DTS

Neo:6 (Dolby/DTS) can be used for multichannel mode only.

! Graphic equalizer (GRAPHIC EQ) can be

used for 2-channel mode only.

! Parametric equalizer (PARAMETRIC EQ)

can be used for multi-channel mode only.

Note

When selecting 2-channel mode, audio does not be output from front center and rear center speakers.

Sound settings (SETTING1, SETTING2 or SETTING3)

Created acoustic sound field can be stored in this unit and called up easily. Additionally, this unit stores the sound setting and output channel information for each source group. Changing the source switches sound setting and output channel information for each source group at the same time. Three types of sound settings can be set and stored for both 2-channel mode and multichannel mode independently. Moreover, sound settings can be stored for both the network mode and the standard mode. Therefore, a total of 12 types of sound settings can be set and stored. ! Auto TA and EQ can be performed only

when the standard mode is selected. Performing Auto TA and EQ creates auto settings (AUTO) which are adjusted finely for both 2-channel mode and multi-channel mode. However, AUTO cannot be customized.

Source groups

Each source stores both sound settings and output channels information. When a DVD player (built-in or optional) is selected as a source, the each medium stores these settings independently. Media of DVD player are listed as follows: ! DVD audio

! External unit 1 and external unit 2 are set to

Custom settings (CUSTOM1, CUSTOM2 and CUSTOM3)

Following functions can store the settings in the custom settings (CUSTOM1, CUSTOM2 and CUSTOM3). Custom settings are common to Sound settings (SETTING1, SETTING2 and SETTING3).

! Speaker setting (SPEAKER SETTING) ! Cut-off frequency setting (CUT OFF) ! Time alignment setting

(TIME ALIGNMENT)

! Speaker level setting (SPEAKER LEVEL) ! Parametric equalizer setting

(PARAMETRIC EQ) (when selecting multichannel mode only)

! Graphic equalizer setting (GRAPHIC EQ)

(when selecting 2-channel mode only)

Audio setup procedure

Standard mode

First, perform Auto TA and EQ. Auto TA and EQ creates finely-tuned sound field for both 2channel mode and multi-channel mode according to your vehicle interior acoustic characteristics. (Refer to Auto TA and EQ (auto-time alignment and auto-equalizing) on page 106.) If AUTO TA and EQ has been completed, sound setting is set to AUTO.

Basically, that’s all you need to do to adjust the audio setting and no other fine tuning is necessary. However, according to your wishes, it is possible to customize audio settings based on Auto TA and EQ settings. By carrying out the following settings/adjustments in the order shown, you can customize sound field effortlessly.
