FEATURES ON SOUND EFFECT
English
This unit incorporates a sophisticated, multi-program digital
sound field processor. The processor allows you to electronically expand and change the shape of the audio sound field
from both audio and video sources, creating a theater-like
experience in your listening room. This unit has a total of 8
digital sound field processor (DSP) modes. You can create an
excellent audio sound field by selecting a suitable sound field
(this will, of course, depend on what you will be listening to),
and adding desired adjustments.
Digital Sound Field Processing
What is it that makes live music so good? Today’s advanced
sound reproduction technology lets you get extremely close to
the sound of a live performance, but chances are you’ll still
notice something missing, the acoustic environment of the live
concert hall. Extensive research into the exact nature of the
sonic reflections that create the ambience of a large hall has
made it possible for YAMAHA engineers to bring you this same
sound in your listening room, so you’ll feel all the sound of a
live concert.
Dolby Pro Logic Surround
This unit employs a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder similar
to professional Dolby Stereo decoders used in many movie
theaters. By using the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder, you
can experience the dramatic realism and impact of Dolby
Surround movie theater sound in your own home. Dolby Pro
Logic employs a four channel five speaker system. The Pro
Logic Surround system divides the input signal into four levels:
the left and right main channels, the center channel (used for
dialog), and the rear surround sound channels (used for sound
effects, background noise, and other ambient noises). The
center channel allows listeners seated in even less-than-ideal
positions to hear the dialog originating from the action on the
screen while experiencing good stereo imaging.
Dolby Digital
In addition, this unit incorporates a Dolby Pro Logic Surround
decoder and Dolby Digital decoder for multi-channel sound
reproduction of Dolby Surround encoded video sources. The
operation of the Dolby Pro Logic Surround or Dolby Digital
decoder can be controlled by selecting a corresponding DSP
program including combined operations of the YAMAHA DSP
and the Dolby Pro Logic Surround or Dolby Digital decoder.
Furthermore, our technicians, armed with sophisticated
measuring equipment, have even made it possible to capture
the acoustics of a variety of actual concert halls, theaters, etc.
from around the world, to allow you to accurately re-create any
one of these live performance environments, all in your home.
Dolby Surround is encoded on the sound track of pre-recorded
video tapes, laser discs, and some TV/cable broadcasts. When
you play a source encoded with Dolby Surround on this unit,
the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder decodes the signal and
distributes the surround-sound effects.
This Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder employs a digital signal
processing system. This system improves the stability of sound
at each channel and crosstalk between channels, so that
positioning of sounds around the room is more accurate
compared with conventional analog signal processing systems.
In addition, this unit features a built-in automatic input balance
control. This always assures you the best performance without
manual adjustment.
The built-in Dolby Digital decoder leads you into a totally new
sound experiences.
Dolby Digital is a new generation of multi-channel digital audio
technology, or the newest spatial sound processing format
developed for 35 mm film-movies by employing a new kind of
low bit-rate audio coding.
Dolby Digital is a digital surround sound system that provides
completely independent multi-channel audio to consumers. In
multi-channel form, Dolby Digital provides five full range
channels in what is sometimes referred to as a “3/2” configuration: three front channels (left, center and right), plus two
surround channels. A sixth bass-only effect channel is also
provided for output of LFE (low frequency effect), or low bass
effects that are independent of other channels. This channel is
counted as 0.1, thus giving rise to the term 5.1 channels in
total.
01RX-V595-e/f16/23/99, 4:09 PM7
Compared to Dolby Pro Logic that is referred to a “3/1” system
(left front, center, right front and just one surround channel),
Dolby Digital features two surround channels, called stereo or
split surrounds, each offering the same full range fidelity as the
three front channels.
Sound of wide dynamic range reproduced by the five full range
channels presents listeners much excitement that has never
been experienced before. Precise sound orientation by the
discrete digital sound processing expands realism that the
original movie possesses.
LD and DVD are home audio formats that could benefit from
Dolby Digital. In the near future, Dolby Digital will also be
applied to DBS, CATV and HDTV. The ongoing release of
Dolby Stereo Digital theatrical films now underway will provide
an immediate source of Dolby Digital encoded video software.

The following original functions make the surround-sound effect
of Dolby Digital become the most suitable for your audio
system and the listening conditions.
Dolby Surround + DSP (CINEMA DSP)
• Dynamic range (sound scale) of source can be changed
so that it will be suitable for the listening conditions.
• Output of low bass from any channel can be assigned to
either the MAIN SPEAKERS terminals or SUBWOOFER
terminal to maximize system performance.
• Output of LFE can be assigned to either the MAIN
SPEAKERS terminals or SUBWOOFER terminal to
maximize system performance.
Dolby Surround sound system shows its full ability in a large
movie theater, because movie sounds are originally designed to
be reproduced in a large movie theater using many speakers.
It is difficult to create a sound environment similar to that of a
movie theater in your listening room, because the room size,
materials of inside walls, the number of speakers, etc. of your
listening room is much different from those of a movie theater.
Dolby Pro Logic + 2 Digital Sound Fields
Digital sound fields are created on the presence side and the
rear surround side of the Dolby Pro Logic Surround-decoded
sound field respectively. They create a wide acoustic
environment and emphasize surround-effect in the room,
letting you feel much presence as if you are watching a
movie in a popular Dolby Stereo theater.
This combination is available when the sound field program
DOLBY PRO LOGIC ENHANCED/DOLBY DIGITAL
ENHANCED, 70 mm MOVIE THEATER/DIGITAL MOVIE
THEATER or TV SPORTS is selected, and the input signal of
source is analog, PCM audio or encoded with the Dolby
Digital in 2-channel.
YAMAHA DSP technology made it possible to present you with
nearly the same sound experience as that of a large movie
theater in your listening room by compensating for lack of
presence and dynamics in your listening room with its original
digital sound fields combined with Dolby Surround sound field.
CINEMA DSP
The YAMAHA “CINEMA DSP” logo indicates those programs
are created by the combination of Dolby Surround and
YAMAHA DSP technology.
Dolby Digital + 3 Digital Sound Fields
Digital sound fields are created on the presence side and the
independent left and right surround sides of the Dolby Digitaldecoded sound field respectively. They create a wide
acoustic environment and much surround effect in the room
without losing high channel separation. With wide dynamic
range of Dolby Digital sound, this sound field combination lets
you feel as if you are watching a movie in the newest Dolby
Stereo Digital theater. This will be the most ideal home
theater sound at the present time.
This combination is available when the sound field program
DOLBY PRO LOGIC ENHANCED/DOLBY DIGITAL
ENHANCED, 70 mm MOVIE THEATER/DIGITAL MOVIE
THEATER or TV SPORTS is selected, and the input signal of
source is encoded with the Dolby Digital (except in 2-channel).

SPEAKERS TO BE USED
SPEAKER SETUP
This unit is designed to provide the best sound-field quality with
a 5-speaker configuration, using main speakers, rear speakers
and a center speaker.
The main speakers are used for the main source sound plus
the effect sounds. They will probably be the speakers from
your present stereo system. The rear speakers are used for
the effect and surround sounds, and the center speaker is for
the center sounds (dialog, vocals, etc.). If for some reason it is
not practical to use a center speaker, you can do without it.
Best results, however, are obtained with the full system.
The main speakers should be high performance models and
have enough power handling capacity to accept the maximum
output of your audio system.
Other speakers do not have to be equal to the main speakers.
For precise sound localization, however, it is ideal to use high
performance models that can reproduce sounds in the full
range for the center speaker and the rear speakers.
SPEAKER CONFIGURATION
5-Speaker Configuration
Use of a subwoofer expands your sound field
It is also possible to further expand your system with the
addition of a subwoofer and amplifier. The use of a subwoofer
is effective not only for reinforcing bass frequencies from any or
all channels, but also for reproducing the LFE (low frequency
effect) sound with high fidelity when playing back a source with
the Dolby Digital decoded. You may wish to choose the
convenience of a YAMAHA Active Servo Processing Subwoofer
System, which has its own built-in power amplifier.
4-Speaker Configuration
This configuration is the most effective and recommended one.

CONNECTING TO DIGITAL (COAXIAL AND/OR OPTICAL) TERMINALS
If your DVD (LD) player, TV/DBS tuner, etc. are equipped with
coaxial or optical digital audio signal output terminals, they can
be connected to this unit’s COAXIAL and/or OPTICAL digital
signal input terminals.
To make a connection between optical digital audio signal
terminals, remove the cover from each terminal, and then
connect them by using a commercially available optical fiber
cable that conforms to EIAJ standards. Other cables might not
function correctly.
Even if you connect an audio/video unit to the COAXIAL (or
OPTICAL) terminal of this unit, you must keep the unit connected with the same named analog audio signal terminals of
this unit, because digital signal cannot be recorded by a tape
deck or VCR connected to this unit. You can switch the
selection of input signals between “digital” and “analog” easily.
(See page 29 for details.)

USING DIGITAL SOUND FIELD PROCESSOR (DSP
This unit incorporates a sophisticated, multi-program digital sound field processor. The processor allows you to electronically
expand and change the shape of the audio sound field from both audio and video sources, creating a theater-like experience in
your listening room. You can create an excellent audio sound field by selecting a suitable sound field program (this will, of course,
depend on what you are listening to), and adding any desired adjustments.
The following list gives you a brief description of the sound fields produced by each of the DSP programs. Keep in mind that most
of these are precise digital recreations of actual acoustic environments. The data for these sound fields was recorded at actual
locations using sophisticated sound field measurement equipment.
Note
The channel level balance between the left and right rear speakers may vary depending on the sound field you are listening to. This is due to the fact that most of these sound field are re-creation of actual acoustic environments.

7. D.RNG (Adjusting dynamic range)
Choices: MAX/STD/MIN
Preset position: MAX
* This adjustment is effective only when the Dolby Digital is
decoded.
MAX:“Dynamic range” is the difference between the
maximum level and the minimum level of sounds.
Sounds on a movie originally designed for movie
theaters feature very wide dynamic range.
Dolby Digital technology can bring the original sound
track into a home audio format with this wide
dynamic range unchanged.
In this position, a source encoded with the Dolby
Digital is reproduced in the original sound track’s
wide dynamic range providing you with powerful
sounds just like in a movie theater.
Selecting this position will be even better if you can
listen to a source in a high output level in a room
specially soundproofed for audio/video enjoyment.
STD (Standard):
Powerful sounds of extremely wide dynamic range
are not always suitable for home use. Depending
upon the condition of your listening environment, it
may not be possible to increase the sound output
level as high as a movie theater. However, in a level
suitable for listening to in your room, the low level
parts of source sound often cannot be heard so well
because they will be lost among noises in your
environment.
Dolby Digital technology also made it possible to
reduce an original sound track’s dynamic range for a
home audio format by “compressing” the data of
sound.
In this position, a source encoded with the Dolby
Digital is reproduced in the “compressed” dynamic
range of the source suitable for low level listening.
MIN:In this position, dynamic range is more reduced than
in the STD position.
Selecting this position will be effective when you
must listen to a source at lower level.

* This adjustment is effective only when the Dolby Digital is
decoded and the signals of selected source encoded with the
Dolby Digital contain center-channel signals.
Adjusts the delay between the main sounds (at the main
channels) and dialog etc. (at the center channel).
The larger the value, the later the dialog etc. is generated.
This is for making sounds from the left main, center and right
main speakers reach your listening position at the same time.
This is achieved by delaying the sound from the center speaker
if the distance from the center speaker to your listening position
is shorter than the distance from the left or right main speaker
to your listening position.
