Using Your TV or Cable/Satellite TV Remote
to Control the Studio Slim
There are several ways to use your TV, cable, or satellite remote to control the Studio Slim.
HDMI CEC CONTROL
If your TV is connected via HDMI and your TV supports CEC (and it is enabled in the TV settings
menu), you can control the volume and mute functions on the Studio Slim from your TV without
any further setup.
PRELOADED IR CODES
The Studio Slim comes pre-loaded with remote commands for many of the televisions
manufactured within the last 5 years. If your remote does not work, please be sure to leave
your product plugged in and connected to the internet for software updates that will add more
remotes in the future.

Sound Modes
Music Mode
Music mode provides a natural and balanced sound profile with smoother bass
while minimizing home theater spatialization effects.
Movie Mode
Movie mode is optimized for both movies and TV content. It provides home theater
spatialization effects, as well as enhanced dialogue and more dynamic bass impact.
This is the default sound mode for HDMI and Optical input sources.
Night Mod e
Night mode is optimal for low-volume listening. Bass and dynamic range are
reduced to improve vocal clarity. Volume indicators will illuminate in purple instead
of white to indicate the state of Night Mode. In Standby, all lights are off.
