Dynamic range setting
In many listening situations, it is objectionable to allow the sound to
become very loud, and thus the loudest sounds must be compressed
downwards in level. Likewise, the very quiet sounds would be inau-
dible and must be brought upwards in level to be heard. Dolby Digital
satisfies these needs through the dynamic range controlling.
Selects the dynamic range compression to fit the individual listening
situation of the audience. The variable range is from FULL, 7/8 to 1/8,
or OFF.
•FULL: Audio with fully compressed dynamic range.
•7/8~1/8: Audio with partially compressed dynamic range.
•OFF: Audio with uncompressed dynamic range.
