Dual EQ
OFF or ON. Default: OFF. When set to ON, the 5-band parametric equalizer can be set indi-
vidually for left and right channel.
Volume
Mirrors the direct volume control via Volume knob or encoder 1. The output level can be set
between -96 dB and +6 dB, mostly in steps of 0.5 dB. The encoders use a special accelerator
algorithm. Fast turning increases the step size. At moderate turning speed the changes in dB
cause the expected volume change. Only at slower turning the finest steps will be used.
Lock Volume
Deactivates volume control via the big VOLUME knob. Volume within the menu still works, and
is used to set the desired output level. Active Lock is indicated in the VOL and Volume screen
and the status bar.
Balance
Mirrors the balance control in the VOL screen. Adjustable from L 100 (left) through <C> (center)
to R100 (right).A quick turn jumps from L or R to <C> and vice versa.
Mute
Mutes the current output. Can also be controlled via the VOL screen, a push on the Volume
knob, and Remap Function Keys. Adjusting Volume to a higher value immediately disables
mute, lowering Volume takes over the volume value without disabling mute.
Dim
Reduces the volume of the current output by 20 dB. Also available via the Remap Function
Keys. Adjusting Volume to a higher value deactivates Dim immediately, lowering Volume will set
the Dim value as new Volume value.
