Basic Operation Memory and call-out functions (USER MODE function) • The AVR-4306 is equipped with a function for storing the selected input source, the auto surround mode and input mode in the memory and selecting these settings when you want to use them. • Three patterns of settings can be stored in the memory pressing the USER MODE buttons. 2 Storing the settings in the memory 1 The following are stored in the memory: q Currently set input source w Currently set auto surround mode e Currently set input mode 2 Press and hold the USER MODE button for at least three seconds which you want to store the settings. In this case, press the button and hold it in until the indicator of the selected USER MODE button lights. Basic Operation DENON original surround modes The AVR-4306 is equipped with a high performance DSP (Digital Signal Processor) which uses digital signal processing to synthetically recreate the sound field. One of ten preset surround modes can be selected according to the program source and the parameters can be adjusted according to the conditions in the listening room to achieve a more realistic, powerful sound. Surround modes and their features 1 7CH STEREO The front left channel signals are output to the surround and surround back left channels, the front right channel signals are output to the surround and surround back right channels, and the in-phase component of the left and right channels is output to the center channel. Use this mode to enjoy stereo sound. 2 WIDE SCREEN 3 SUPER STADIUM 4 ROCK ARENA 5 JAZZ CLUB Select this to achieve an atmosphere like that of a movie theater with a large screen. In this mode, all signal sources are played in the 7.1-channel mode, including Dolby Surround and Dolby Digital 5.1-channel sources. Effects simulating the multi surround speakers of movie theaters are added to the surround channels. Select this when watching baseball or soccer programs to achieve a sound as if you were actually at the stadium. This mode provides the longest reverberation signals. Use this mode to achieve the feeling of a live concert in an arena with reflected sounds coming from all directions. This mode creates the sound field of a live house with a low ceiling and hard walls. This mode gives jazz a very vivid realism. 2 Calling the settings out Press the USER MODE button at which the settings you want to call out are stored. • The indicator for the selected USER MODE button lights. 6 CLASSIC CONCERT Select this for the sound of a concert hall rich in reverberations. 7 MONO MOVIE (NOTE) Select this when watching monaural movies for a greater sense of expansion. 8 VIDEO GAME Use this to enjoy video game sources. In this case, press the button and hold it in until the indicator of the selected USER MODE button lights. 9 MATRIX Select this to emphasize the sense of expansion for music sources recorded in stereo. Signals consisting of the component difference of the input signals (the component that provides the sense of expansion) processed for delay are output from the surround channel. 10 VIRTUAL Select this mode to enjoy a virtual sound field, produced from the front 2-channel speakers or headphones. Depending on the program source being played, the effect may not be very noticeable. In this case, try other surround modes, without worrying about their names, to create a sound field suited to your tastes. NOTE: When playing sources recorded in monaural, the sound will be one-sided if signals are only input to one channel (left or right), so input signals to both channels. If you have a source component with only one audio output (monophonic camcorder, etc.) obtain a "Y" adapter cable to split the mono output to two outputs, and connect to the L and R inputs. 2 Personal memory plus This set is equipped with a personal memorize function that automatically memorizes the surround modes and input modes selected for the different sources. When the input source is switched, the modes set for that source last time it was used are automatically recalled. The surround parameters, tone control settings and playback level balance for the different output channels are memorized for each surround mode. 36
