Introduction

Welcome to the exciting world of digital home entertainment. The RX-V1 is the most complete and advanced AV receiver available. Though some of the more advanced features of this unit may not be familiar to you, they are easy to use. Incorporated state-of-the-art technology such as Dolby Digital and DTS can bring the same audio experience to your home as they have brought to feature films in quality theaters around the world. To make the listening experience even more enjoyable, the RX-V1 includes a number of exclusive, digitally created listening environments known as digital sound fields. Choosing a sound field program is like transporting yourself to such venues as an outdoor arena, an European church, or a cozy jazz club. Take some time now to read more about these features and enjoy the new experiences the RX-V1 brings to your home theater.

Dolby Digital and Dolby Digital Surround EX

The RX-V1 is equipped with a Dolby Digital decoder which reproduces industry standard Dolby Digital surround sound for a cinematic audio experience in your home. Dolby Digital is a 5.1 channel format because it uses five discrete channels (left and right Main channels, Center channel, and left and right Rear channels) and a special low frequency channel (that is used only enough to merit the “0.1” channel rating) to create incredibly realistic 360˚ surround effects. Recently, Dolby Digital Surround EX was introduced in movie theaters as an advanced surround technology. The addition of a Rear Center channel makes front-to-back transitions more realistic. You can enjoy the newest Dolby Digital Surround EX software with the CINEMA DSP programs in the RX-V1 such as Dolby Digital/ Matrix 6.1.

DTS and DTS ES

The RX-V1 is also equipped with a DTS decoder, which uses a 5.1 channel system to create a full surround sound environment. It was developed as a way to replace the analog soundtracks of movies with six channels of digital sound. In comparison with Dolby Digital, DTS uses less compression to store the sound information. The newly presented DTS ES system reproduces digital sound similar to Dolby Digital Surround EX. The use of the Rear Center speaker along with the existing 5.1 channel speakers provides a fully immersive cinematic audio experience.

English

Comparing Surround Technologies

To enjoy dynamic feature film sound at home, you should have the appropriate sound reproduction system for your home theater. The traditional standard for home surround systems was called Dolby Surround and consisted of four channels (left and right Main channels, a Center channel, and a Surround channel for effects). The new home theater standard is Dolby Digital and consists of 5.1 channels (left and right Main channels, a Center channel, left and right Rear channels, and an LFE (low frequency effect) channel). The newer DTS surround technology also makes use of a 5.1 channel system. The 6.1 channel system which adds a Rear Center channel to the 5.1 channel configuration is the latest advancement in surround sound technology, and is employed by Dolby Digital Surround EX and DTS ES.

Introduction

Digital Sound Fields (DSP)

Technological advances in sound reproduction over the last 30 years have enhanced the listening experience with improved clarity, precision, and power. However, something has been missing: the atmosphere and acoustic ambience of the public venue. Our Yamaha engineers have extensively researched the nature of sound acoustics and the way sound reflects inside a room. We sent these engineers to famous theaters and concert halls around the world to measure the acoustics of those venues with sophisticated microphones. The data they collected is used to recreate these environments in digital sound fields. Some of these digital sound fields have been created using data measured at the original venue; others have been created from combinations of data to form unique environments for specific purposes. Some have been designed especially for music, and others especially for movies. Of course, this only solves half of the problem. Because these engineers have no way of knowing the acoustics of your entertainment room, we have made it possible for you to adjust the various parameters of this data to tailor each virtual venue to your taste. You can use these sound fields to enhance any source and in combination with any of the following surround sound technologies.

CINEMA-DSP: Dolby Digital + DSP and DTS + DSP

The Dolby Digital system and DTS system show their full capability in large movie theaters, because feature film soundtracks are designed to be reproduced in such environments. It is difficult to recreate a sound environment similar to a movie theater in your entertainment room because of the room size, wall materials, and the number of speakers in your entertainment system. Yamaha DSP technology makes it possible for you to enjoy nearly the same sound experience as that of a large movie theater in your entertainment room by compensating for lack of presence and dynamics in your entertainment room with Yamaha’s original digital sound fields combined with Dolby Digital or DTS soundtracks.

Virtual CINEMA DSP and HP CINEMA DSP

Yamaha developed the Virtual CINEMA DSP algorithm which allows you to experience the virtual sound fields without surround speakers. This makes it possible for the RX-V1 to produce a full surround sound catering to the number of speakers you have. The RX-V1 also has an HP (Headphones) CINEMA DSP algorithm which is achieved by the crosstalk processing applying the precise Head Related Transfer Function. You can therefore enjoy listening to the CINEMA DSP soundfields on headphones.

Multi-function remote control

The remote control can operate other audio-video components once you program the remote control using the manufacturer code and Learn feature.

Various Input and Output Jacks

The RX-V1 has various output jacks for audio and video signals as well as a digital recording output jack. Many input jacks are also available for connection to multiple audio-video sources. All the video inputs and outputs have S-video jacks in addition to standard composite video jacks for improved video picture quality. Component video input and output jacks are also available to deliver the excellent video signals from DVD players and other high quality video sources. The coaxial and optical digital signal jacks (provided for direct transmission of digital signals) automatically detect Dolby Digital, DTS, and PCM signals. A demodulator circuit is built into the Dolby Digital RF input so you can connect it directly to the Dolby Digital RF signal output on your LD player. Additionally, there are six audio inputs for disscrete multichannel reproduction from an external decoder. The RX-V1 also comes with a monaural subwoofer jack and split subwoofer jacks which can reproduce delicate but powerful low frequency effects.

English

■ About Changing Batteries

As the batteries wear out, the operating range of the remote control decreases and the TRANSMIT indicator does not flash or its light becomes dim. When you notice any of these conditions, change all of the batteries.

Reset button

Notes:

• If the remote control is without batteries for more than 20 minutes, or if worn out batteries remain in the unit, the contents of the memory may be cleared. If the memory is cleared, insert new batteries and reprogram any functions that may have been cleared.

• After you insert new batteries, be sure to push RESET in the battery compartment using a ball point pen or similar object before using the remote control. (This does not clear the contents of the memory.)

Using the Remote Control

The remote control transmits a directional infrared beam. Be sure to aim the remote control directly at the remote control sensor on the main unit during operation. When the sensor is covered or there is a large object between the remote control and the main unit, the sensor cannot receive signals. The sensor may not be able to receive signals properly when it is exposed to direct sunlight or a strong artificial light (such as a fluorescent or strobe light). In this case, change the direction of the light or reposition the main unit to avoid direct lighting.

Speaker System Configurations

The most complete speaker configuration consists of eight speakers: the left and right Main speakers, a Center speaker, the left and right Rear speakers, the left and right Front Effect speakers, and a Rear Center speaker. If you do not use eight speakers, you can direct the signals for speakers that are not in your system to other speakers in your configuration. A Subwoofer can be used with any of these configurations to produce a fuller sound.

( )

■ Eight or Seven Speaker Configuration –Full Cinema

DSP–

When you reproduce feature film software, this configuration fullly expresses the powerful and realistic sound qualities of 70 mm multitrack audio. The dialogue is positioned as if it were coming from directly on the screen, the sound effect is positioned slightlly behind the screen, and the soundtrack music is positioned even further behind the screen to express the width and depth of the overall presentation. This configuration makes the most of this unit’s capability.

The Rear Center speaker is useful for playback of Dolby Digital Surround EX or DTS ES.

■ Six Speaker Configuration –Hi Fi DSP–

This configuration is used the most for audio playback with HiFi DSP. It does not position the dialogue sound as well as a seven or eight speaker configuration. However, it creates a dynamic DSP (Digital Sound Field Processor) sound field which adds depth to the sound.

For this speaker configuration, change SET MENU item 1A. CENTER SP to “NONE” and 1D. REAR CT SP to “NONE” (see page 41).

■ Five Speaker Configuration –Standard 5.1 Channel–

This configuration does not express the height of the sound field as well as the seven or eight speaker configuration. However, it positions the dialogue sound as coming directly from the screen.

For this speaker configuration, change SET MENU item 1F. FRNT EFCT SP to “NONE” and 1D. REAR CT SP to “NONE” (see page 41).

■ Four Speaker Configuration –Minimum

Requirement–

In this configuration, the Center speaker signals and Front Effect speaker signals are directed to the left and right Main speakers.

For this speaker configuration, change SET MENU item 1A. CENTER SP to “NONE,” item 1F. FRNT EFCT SP to “NONE,” and item 1D. REAR CT SP to “NONE” (see page 41).

Speaker Placement

Where you place your speakers has a tremendous effect on how well your system sounds.

Main

TV or Video

Main

speaker

Place the left and right Main speakers an equal distance from the main listening position.

If you have a TV or video monitor in your system, the distance of each speaker from each side of the TV or video monitor should be the same.

Preparations

approx.

(3ft) (1~3ft) (5~15ft) (1~3ft) (3ft)

approx.

If you have a TV or video monitor in your system, align the front face of the Center speaker with the front face of the monitor. Place the speaker as close to the monitor as possible, such as directly over or under the monitor. If you place the speaker under the monitor, the Front Effect speakers can adjust the height of the sound to correspond with the action on the screen (depending on the listener’s position). If you have a projection screen in your system, place the Center speaker under the screen. Be sure to align the speaker with the center of the screen.

■ Placing the Front Effect, Rear and Rear Center

Speakers

These speakers should be placed about 0.5~1m (1~3 feet) outside the Main speakers and in the front of the room. They should be turned toward the main listening position. Place the Rear speakers in the back of the room so they face the main listening position. The Rear speakers can be placed farther apart than the Front Effect speakers. The Front Effect and Rear speakers should be placed about

1.8m (6 feet) above the floor. Once you begin listening to programs, continue to adjust the speaker placement

until you obtain a balanced sound from the Main speakers and the Front Effect and Rear speakers.

■ When You Use a Projection Screen

Place the speakers as shown in the illustration.

1/4

The Main speakers should be placed about one-quarter of the way up from the bottom of the screen.

Place the Center speaker in the center and directly under the screen. The Center speaker provides precise dialogue localization.

When you use a projection screen with your system, the Front Effect speakers provide better effect quality. The CINEMA-DSP sound field programs (see page

34) raise the sound from the Center speaker upward and provide natural sound corresponding with the video images.

■ Placing the Subwoofers

Place the Front Subwoofer near the Main speakers. Turn it slightly toward the center of the room to reduce wall reflections. If you use a Rear Subwoofer, place it behind the main listening position. The placement of the Rear Subwoofer is not critical because of

the ultralow frequencies of the sound being reproduced. By adding a high quality Subwoofer to the speaker configurations shown on pages 21 and 22, you can enjoy more powerful and realistic

movie effects, even if your Main speakers are large.

Note:

• If you use different brands of speakers (with different tonal qualities) in your configuration, the tone of a moving human voice and other types of sound may not shift smoothly. We recommend that you use speakers from the same manufacturer or speakers with the same tonal quality.

You can also adjust the output levels and equalization of your effect speakers using the SET MENU (see page 41).

If you are using small speakers, the addition of a Subwoofer will reinforce the sound effects of movies (see page 21).

Hookups

Connecting to Digital Jacks

The RX-V1 has digital jacks for direct transmission of digital signals through either coaxial or fiber optic cables. You can use the digital jacks to input PCM, DTS and Dolby Digital bitstreams. When you connect components to both the COAXIAL and OPTICAL jacks (for CD, DVD, and CBL/SAT) priority is given to the input signals from the COAXIAL jack. All digital input jacks are acceptable for 96 kHz/24 bit digital signals.

■ About the Dust Protection Cap

Pull out the cap from the optical jack before you connect the fiber optic cable. Do not discard the cap. When you are not using the optical jack, be sure to put the cap back in place. This cap protects the jack from dust.

About the Video Jacks

There are three types of video jacks. Video signals input through the VIDEO jacks are the conventional composite video signals. Video signals input through the S VIDEO jacks are separated into luminance (Y) and color (C) video signals. The S-video signals achieve high quality color reproduction. Video signals input through the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks are separated into luminance (Y) and color difference (PB/CB, PR/CR) video signals. The jacks are also separated into three for each signal. The description of the component video jacks may be different depending on the component (e.g. Y, CB, CR / Y, PB, PR / Y, B-Y, R-Y/ etc.). Component video signals provide the best quality in picture reproduction.

Composite VIDEO terminal

S VIDEO terminal

COMPONENT VIDEO terminals

PR/CRPB/CBY

Note:

• Each type of video jack works independently. Signals input through the composite video, S-video, and component jacks are output through the corresponding composite video, S-video, and component jacks respectively.

Caution:

• Use a commercially available S-video cable when connecting to the S VIDEO jacks, and commercially available video cables when connecting to the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks.

• When you are using the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks, check the details in the owner’s manual that came with the component being connected.

sound or images from an LD player, be sure to connect the player to either the

DIGITAL OPTICAL or analog AUDIO jacks.

Caution:

• Even if you connect an LD player with an RF (AC-3) output jack to this unit, you cannot reproduce Dolby Digital sound from all LD discs. You must playback an LD disc encoded with Dolby Digital signals in order to take advantage of the Dolby Digital sound.

Hookups

Connecting Audio Components

Before you connect any components, disconnect the power supply to all the components you plan to connect including the RX-V1 and determine which jacks are for the left and right channels and for input and output. When you connect other YAMAHA audio equipment (such as a CD player or changer, MD deck, or tape deck, connect to terminals with the same number labels. Yamaha applies this labelling system to all its products. In the hookup illustrations on the following pages:

Connecting Speakers

This section explains how to connect speakers to the RX-V1. After you finish connecting your speakers, use the SET MENU to change the signal output settings according to the number and size of the speakers in your configuration.

■ Using Speaker Cords

A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables running side by side. One of the cables is colored or shaped differently, perhaps with a stripe, groove or ridge. To make sure you always connect speakers with the correct polarity, determine the difference between the cables of your speaker cord, make a note of which cable you plan to use for which polarity (+ and –), and always connect the speaker cords consistently.

Strip off 9 mm (3/8 in.) of an inch of insulation from the ends of the

cables.

Twist the exposed wires of the cable together to prevent short

Preparations

circuits.

Loosen the terminal knob by turning it counterclockwise.

Insert only the exposed portion of the cable into the slot in the side of

the terminal, and tighten the terminal knob.

Note:

• If your speaker cords have banana plugs, tighten the terminal knob and insert the plug into the end of the terminal.

Caution:

• Connect the speaker cords with care to avoid creating a short circuit. If you turn on the power and there is a short circuit, this unit may be damaged even though the protection circuit automatically shuts off the power.

AUTO: ................. This mode is automatically selected when you turn on the power of this

unit. In this mode, the input signal is automatically selected in the following order.

1) Dolby Digital or DTS encoded signals

2) Digital (PCM) signals

3) Analog signals

DTS:..................... In this mode, only digital input signals encoded with DTS are selected

even if other signals are input at the same time.

ANALOG: ........... In this mode, only analog input signals are selected even if digital signals

are input at the same time.

AUTO: ................. In this mode, this unit automatically selects the signal in the following

order.

1) Dolby Digital RF encoded signals

2) DTS encoded signals

3) Digital (PCM) signals

4) Analog signals

D.D. RF:............... This unit only selects Dolby Digital RF encoded signals.

DTS:..................... This unit only selects DTS encoded signals.

DGTL:.................. This unit only selects digital (PCM) signals input through the OPTICAL

jacks.

ANALOG: ........... This unit only selects signals input through the ANALOG jacks. This unit

will not select Dolby Digital RF or DTS signals.

Notes:

• For CD, DVD, and CBL/SAT sources, if digital signals are input from both the

OPTICAL and COAXIAL terminals, the digital signal from the COAXIAL terminal is selected.

• When the “AUTO” mode is selected, the RX-V1 automatically determines the type of signal. If the RX-V1 detects a DTS or Dolby Digital signal, the decoder automatically switches to the appropriate setting and reproduces 5.1 channel sound.

• When you use functions such as pause, search, or disc change while playing a disc encoded with DTS signals, the DTS indicator flashes until the next playback starts.

• If you play a disc encoded with DTS signals and the input mode is set to “ANALOG”, this unit reproduces the noise of an unprocessed DTS signal. When you want to play a DTS source, be sure to connect the source to a digital input jack and set the input mode to “AUTO” or “DTS. ”

• If you switch the input mode to “ANALOG” while playing a disc encoded with DTS signals, this unit reproduces no sound.

• For LD software that does not contain a digital soundtrack, connect the LD player to the analog jacks and set the input mode to “AUTO” or “ANALOG.”

• The input mode resets to “AUTO” after you turn off the power. When the current input source is D-TV, CBL/SAT, and VCR 1, the input mode resets to the one set using the

15. INPUT MODE item in the SET MENU after you turn off the power (see page 52).

• If the LD player is transmitting signals in a non-standard method, the RX-V1 cannot detect the DTS or Dolby Digital signal. In this case, the decoder automatically switches to PCM or analog.

• Some audio/video equipment, such as LD players, output different audio signals through their analog and digital jacks. Change the input mode as necessary.

appears in the front panel display.

• For example, to select “Live Concert,” press HALL 2 repeatedly. You can

also select sound field programs within the current group by setting PARAMETER/SET MENU to the PARAMETER position and pressing the cursor + or – button.

Notes:

• If a DTS or Dolby Digital signal is input when the input mode is set to “AUTO”, the sound field program automatically switches to the appropriate decoding program.

• Choose a sound field program based on your listening preference, not on the name of the program. The acoustics of your listening room affect the sound field program. Minimize the sound reflections in your room to maximize the effect created by the program.

• When you select an input source, the main unit automatically selects the last sound field program used with that source.

• When you turn off the main unit, the current source and sound field program are memorized and are automatically selected when you turn on the power again.

• When high rate 96kHz sampling 24 bit digital signals are output from source equipment, the DSP sound field cannot operate on the source sounds. In this case, the sounds are reproduced as normal 2-channel stereo.

■ Special considerations when recording DTS software

The DTS signal is a digital bitstream. Attempting to digitally record the DTS bitstream will result in noise being recorded. Therefore, if you want to use this unit to record sources that have DTS signals recorded on them, the following considerations need to be made.

For DTS encoded LDs, DVDs, and CDs:

Only 2-channel analog audio signals may be recorded as follows:

Laser Discs:

Set your Laser Disc player’s left and right outputs to the analog soundtrack.

DVDs:

Use the disc menu to set the DVD player’s mixed 2-channel left and right audio outputs to the PCM or Dolby Digital soundtrack.

Compact Discs:

The DTS signal recorded on CDs can only be output as a digital bitstream, and therefore cannot be recorded.

■ About the Test Tone

The test tone is produced by the tone generator. The tone generator produces a narrow band noise centered at a specified

frequency by the band pass filter. You can change the center frequency from 35 Hz through 250 Hz in one-sixth

octave steps. You can use the test tone not only for adjusting the subwoofer level, but also for

checking the low frequency characteristics of your listening room. Low frequency sounds are especially affected by the listener’s position, speaker placement, subwoofer polarity and other conditions.

3. DOLBY D. SET (Dolby Digital Set)

■ 3A. LFE LEVEL

Use this feature to adjust the output level of the LFE (low frequency effect) channel when playing back Dolby Digital encoded software. This setting is effective only when this unit decodes Dolby Digital signals. The LFE signal carries the low frequency special effect sound which is only added to certain scenes.

You can adjust the levels from 0 dB to –20 dB.

• Adjust the LFE levels according to the capacity of your subwoofer or headphones.

■ 3B. D-RANGE (Dynamic Range)

Use this feature to adjust the dynamic range. This setting is effective only when this unit decodes Dolby Digital signals.

Select the “MAX” setting for feature films. Select the “STD” (Standard) setting for general use. Select the “MIN” setting for listening to sources at extremely low volume levels.

English

Note:

• When D-RANGE is set to “MIN”, sound output may be faint because some Dolby Digital software is not compatible with the minimum level dynamic range.

■ 4A. LFE LEVEL

Use this feature to adjust the output level of the LFE (low frequency effect) channel when playing back DTS encoded software. This setting is effective only when this unit decodes DTS signals. The LFE signal carries the low frequency special effect sound which is only added to certain scenes.

You can adjust the levels from –10 dB to +10 dB.

• Adjust the LFE level according to the capacity of your subwoofer or headphones.

5. SP DELAY TIME

Use this feature to adjust the delay of the Center and the Rear Center channel sounds. This feature works when this unit decodes DTS or Dolby Digital signals. Ideally, the Center speaker and the Rear Center speaker should be the same distance from the main listening position as the left and right Main speakers. However, in most home situations, the Center speaker or the Rear Center speaker is placed in line with the Main speakers or the Rear speakers. By delaying the sound from the Center speaker and the Rear Center speaker, the apparent distance from the Center speaker and the Rear Center speaker to the main listening position can be adjusted to make it seem the same as the distance between the left and right Main speaker, and the left and right Rear speakers to the listening position. Adjusting the delay time for the Center speaker is especially important for giving depth to the dialogue.

You can adjust the delay time from 0 ms to 5 ms for the Center speaker and from 0 ms to 30 ms for the Rear Center speaker.

• Increasing the delay 1 ms simulates moving the speakers about 30 cm (one foot) farther away from the listening position.

7. CENTER GEQ (Center Graphic Equalizer)

Use this feature to adjust the built-in five band graphic equalizer so the Center speaker tone matches that of the left and right Main speakers. You can select the 100 Hz, 300 Hz, 1 kHz, 3 kHz, or 10 kHz frequencies.

Use % to select a higher frequency and % to select a lower frequency.

Press + or – to adjust the level of that frequency.

Note:

• You can monitor the Center speaker sound while adjusting this item using the Dolby Surround test tone generator. Press TEST before starting the procedure above. “TEST DOLBY SUR.” appears, and the test tone starts alternating among the speakers. Once you begin the procedure above, the test tone remains at the Center speaker and you can hear how the sound changes as you adjust the various frequency levels. To turn off the test tone generator, press TEST repeatedly until the current DSP program appears (see page 28).

8. REAR CT GEQ (Rear Center Graphic Equalizer)

Use this feature to adjust the built-in five band graphic equalizer so the Rear Center speaker tone matches that of the left and right Main speakers.

English

Press + or – to adjust the level of that frequency.

SET MENU Items

9. CINEMA EQ

Use this feature to match the tonal quality of four groups of speakers: the Main and Center speaker group, the Front Effect speakers group, the Rear speakers group, and the Rear Center speaker group. CINEMA-EQ consists of a high-shelving equalizer (HIGH) and a parametric equalizer (PEQ). The high-shelving equalizer changes high frequency characteristics, and the parametric equalizer boosts or cuts any selected frequency. The equalizer can be used for a variety of purposes, such as adjusting the tonal quality of differing types of speakers, adjusting the tonal quality in different installation environments, or adjusting the source sound to your liking.

The CINEMA EQ characteristic charts below show the value of the CINEMA EQ factory settings for each speaker group for general listening conditions.

▲ L.C.R. Preset Value

HIGH : FRQ 12.7 kHz GAIN –3 dB PEQ : FRQ 12.7 kHz GAIN –4 dB

▲ FRONT and REAR Preset Value

Digital Sound Field Processing (DSP)

Understanding Sound Fields

A sound field is defined as the “characteristic sound reflections of a particular space.” In concert halls and other music venues, we hear early reflections and reverberations as well as the direct sound produced by the artist(s). The variations in the early reflections and other reverberations among the different music venues is what gives each venue its special and recognizable sound quality. Yamaha sent teams of sound engineers all around the world to measure the sound reflections of famous concert halls and music venues, and collect detailed sound field information such as the direction, strength, range, and delay time of those reflections. Then we stored this enormous amount of data in the ROM chips of the RX-V1.

Recreating a Sound Field

Recreating the sound field of a concert hall or an opera house requires localizing the virtual sound sources in your listening room. The traditional stereo system that uses only two speakers is not capable of recreating a realistic sound field. Yamaha’s DSP requires four effect speakers to recreate sound fields based on the measured sound field data. The processor controls the strength and delay time of the signals output from the four effect speakers to localize the virtual sound sources in a full circle around the listener.

The DSP sound field programs can be classified in two types based on the sound field processing method: programs that use early reflections only and programs that use both early reflections and reverberation.

English

E/R (Early Reflection)

Each sound field is distinguished by the structure of the reflected sound. The increased processing capability of DSP technology enables Yamaha engineers to incorporate even minute reflections with long delay times into the sound field data.

4ch REV. (Four Channel Reverberation)

This type of program consists of early reflections and high quality digital reverberation processing. Reverberation is the most important element for recreating the sound field of a church. To recreate a realistic spatial sound image from reverberation data, Yamaha has adapted the four-channel-output reverberation technology.

Illustration of the Virtual Sound Sources and Echo Patterns

The virtual sound sources and echo patterns for the DSP sound field programs are shown below. The illustration of the virtual sound sources shows early reflection sound only and the illustration of the echo patterns shows both reflected sound and reverberation.

The center of these circles represent the virtual sound source. The size of the circle indicates the strength of the virtual sound source.

Hi-Fi DSP-Sound Field Program

Program Group 1 : Concert Hall 1

■ Europe Hall A

This is a large fan-shaped concert hall in Munich which has approximately 2500 seats. Almost the whole interior is made of wood. There is relatively little reflection from the walls, and sound spreads finely and beautifully.

■ Europe Hall B

This is a large shoe-box type concert hall with less than 2400 seats located in Frankfurt. This hall has a very solid, powerful sound. The listener’s virtual seat is in the center-right section on the first floor.

Program Group 2 : Concert Hall 2

■ U.S.A. Hall D

This is a large 2600 seat concert hall in the United States which features a fairly traditional European design. The interior is relatively simple, in the American style. The middle and high frequencies are richly and beautifully reinforced.

■ Europe Hall E

This is a large 2200 seat shoe-box type concert hall in Amsterdam. It has a circular stage with seats located behind the stage.

Program Group 3 : Church

■ Tokyo

The acoustic environment of an ordinary church with moderate reverberations. The reverberation lasts 2.5 seconds. This is ideal for reproducing church organ and choral music.

■ Freiburg

This program recreates the acoustic environment of a big church located in south Germany. The reverberation delay is very long while the early reflections are smaller than with other sound field programs.

■ Europe Hall C

A classic shoe-box type concert hall with approximately 1700 seats. Pillars and ornate carvings create extremely complex reflections which produce a very full, rich sound.

■ Live Concert

A large round concert hall with a rich surround effect. Pronounced reflections from all directions emphasize the extension of sounds. The sound field has a great deal of presence, and your virtual seat is near the center, close to the stage.

■ Royaumont

This program features the sound field created by the refectory (dining hall) of a beautiful medieval Gothic monastery located in Royaumont on the outskirts of Paris.

Program Group 4 : Jazz Club

■ Village Gate

This is the sound field at a jazz club in New York. It is in a basement and has a relatively spacious floor area. The listener’s virtual seat is at the center left of the hall.

Program Group 5 : Rock Concert

■ Roxy Theatre

The ideal program for lively, dynamic rock music. The data for this program

Additional

Information

was recorded at LA’s “hottest” rock club. The listener’s virtual seat is at the center-left of the hall.

Program Group 6 : Entertainment

■ Disco

This program recreates the acoustic environment of a lively disco in the heart of a big city. The sound is dense and highly concentrated. It is also characterized by a high-energy, “immediate” sound.

■ Village Vanguard

A traditional jazz club in New York, located on 7th Avenue. This room has a low ceiling, and the “stage” is located in a corner. This program creates an intimate “close-to-the music” feel.

■ Warehouse Loft

This program simulates a space enclosed by concrete. An energetic sound field is created with relatively clear reflections from the walls.

■ Party

This is a sound field suitable for background music at parties where you can hear the sound directly from the rear as well, thus realizing music enjoyment over a wide area.

■ The Bottom Line

This is the sound field at stage front in “The Bottom Line”, a famous New York jazz club. The floor can seat 300 people to the left and right in a sound field offering a real and vibrant sound.

■ Arena

A classic shoe-box type concert hall. This program gives you long delays between direct sounds and effect sounds, with the extraordinarily spacious feel of a large arena.

■ Game/Amusement

This program adds a deep and spatial feeling to video game sounds and is also suitable for karaoke.

CINEMA-DSP

The Sound Design of CINEMA-DSP Sound Field Programs

Filmmakers intend the dialog to be located right on the screen, the effect sound a little farther back, the music spread even farther back, and the surround sound around the listener. Of course, all of these sounds must be synchronized with the images on the screen. CINEMA-DSP is an upgraded version of YAMAHA DSP specially designed for movie soundtracks. CINEMA-DSP integrates the DTS, Dolby Digital, and Dolby Pro Logic surround sound technologies with YAMAHA DSP sound field programs to provide the surround sound field. It recreates the most complete movie sound design in your audio room. In CINEMA-DSP sound field programs, Yamaha’s exclusive DSP processing is added to the front left, center, and right 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.

Sound Field Images of the CINEMA-DSP Programs

Each CINEMA-DSP program has its own type of sound field processing block. The sound field data, including the presence and surround sound fields, are based on actual measured data. The presence and surround sound fields can be expressed in the distribution of virtual sound sources and echo patterns. However, as these two types of sound fields are processed with complex elements such as energy balance and mixing signal ratios, they are expressed as a sound field based on auditory perception.

Movie Theater Programs

Most movie software has four-channel (left, center, right and surround) sound information encoded using 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. The six-channel soundtracks found on 70 mm film produce precise sound field localization and rich, deep sound without using matrix processing. The RX-V1’s Movie Theater 70 mm Programs provide the same quality of sound and sound localization that six-channel soundtracks do. The built-in Dolby Digital decoder brings the professional quality sound designed for movie theaters, into your home. With the RX-V1’s Movie Theater program, you can recreate a dynamic sound that gives you the feeling of being at a public theater in your living room using the Dolby Digital technology.

■ Dolby Pro Logic + DSP Sound Field Effect

These programs express an immense sound field and a large surround effect. They also give depth to the sound from the Main Speakers to recreate the realistic sound of a Dolby Stereo theater.

Presence DSP Sound Field

■ Dolby Digital/DTS + DSP Sound Field Effect

These programs use Yamaha’s tri-field DSP process on each of the Dolby Digital signals for the front, left surround, and right surround channels. This processing enables the RX-V1 to reproduce the immense sound field and surround expression of a Dolby Digital equipped movie theater without sacrificing the clear separation of all channels.

■ Program Groups 7~9

These are sound field programs for the audio-video sources.

■ Program Groups 10~12

Ideal for reproducing a movie program which is encoded with Dolby Surround, Dolby Digital, or DTS. When the newest movie program encoded with Dolby Digital Surround EX or DTS ES is input, you can enjoy the full 6.1 channel reproduction using the internal Matrix decoder.

PRO LOGIC functions when the input signal is analog or PCM audio, or encoded with Dolby Digital in two channels. DOLBY DIGITAL functions when the input signal is encoded with Dolby Digital in more than two channels. DTS DIGITAL SUR functions when the input signal is encoded with DTS.

Note:

• No sound wil be output from the Main speakers when a monaural source is played with sound field Program Groups 7~12.

CINEMA-DSP Sound Field Program

Program Group 7 : Concert Video 1

■ Pop/Rock

This program produces an enthusiastic atmosphere and lets you feel as if you are at an actual jazz or rock concert.

■ DJ

Program Group 8 : Concert Video 2

■ Classical/Opera

This program provides excellent vocal depth and overall clarity by restraining excessive reverberation.

The surround sound field is relatively moderate but it reproduces beautiful sound using data collected from a concert hall.

■ Pavilion

Program Group 9 : TV Theater

■ Mono Movie

This program is provided for reproducing monaural video sources (such as old movies). The program produces the optimum reverberation to create sound depth using only the presence sound field.

■ Variety/Sports

Program Group 10 : Movie Theater 1

The sound field makes the voice of a disc jockey sound clearer.

This program reproduces vocals clearly, letting you feel the spaciousness of a pavilion. Reverberation, which is somewhat delayed, reproduces the live acoustics unique to a pavilion, and helps to make concert scenes more exciting.

Though the presence sound field is relatively narrow, the surround sound field employs the sound environment of a large concert hall. With this program, you can enjoy watching various TV programs such as news, variety shows, music programs or sports programs.

■ Spectacle

This program creates the extremely wide sound field of a 70 mm movie theater. It precisely reproduces the source sound in detail, making both the video and the sound fields incredibly real. This program is ideal for any kind of Dolby Surround video source (especially large-scale movie productions).

Program Group 11 : Movie Theater 2

■ Adventure

This program is ideal for precisely reproducing the sound design of the newest 70 mm and multichannel soundtrack films. The sound field is made to be similar to that of the newest movie theaters, so the reverberations of the sound field itself are restrained as much as possible.

Additional

Program Group 12 : Dolby/DTS Surround

Information

■ Normal/Matrix 6.1/ES

The built-in decoder precisely reproduces sounds and sound effects from sources. The highly efficient decoding process improves crosstalk and channel separation and makes sound positioning smoother and more precise.

In this program, no DSP effect is applied.

■ Sci-Fi

This program clearly reproduces the broad and expansive cinematic space from the soundtracks of the latest science fiction films.

■ General

This program is for reproducing sounds from 70 mm and multichannel soundtrack films, and is characterized by a soft and extensive sound field. The presence sound field is relatively narrow. It spatially spreads all around and toward the screen, restraining the effect of conversations without losing clarity.

■ Enhanced/6.1/ES

This program ideally simulates the multiple surround speaker systems of 35 mm film theaters. The Dolby Surround decoding and the digital sound field processing create precise effects without altering the original sound orientation. The surround effects produced by this sound field wrap around the viewer naturally from the back to the left and right and toward the screen.
