Basic Operation

—Continued

When the format of a digital input signal is recognized,
depending on the format, one of the indicators shown
below will appear on the display.

When you select one of the listening modes, one of the
indicators shown below will appear on the display.

Note:

When playing a Dolby Digital source, the message “Dia-
log Norm xx” may appear on the display, “xx” being a
number. Dialog normalization is a function of Dolby
Digital that is used to correct the playback level of
soundtracks that have been recorded at an unusually high
or low level. It works automatically and no user interven-
tion is required. It appears on the display just to let you
know that it’s working. It’s unaffected by the DTR-8.4’s
volume control.

Displaying Source Information

You can display various
information about the cur-
rently selected input
source by first pressing
the scroll wheel, and then
pressing the [Display]
button repeatedly.

If the input signal doesn’t contain the information,

nothing will be displayed. The sampling rate or surround
format is displayed for about three seconds. After that,
the previously displayed information reappears.

This section explains the surround format indication
(e.g., 3/2.1).

A:

the number of front channels.

3: front left, center, and front right.
2: front left and front right.

back.
2: surround left and surround right.

Nothing means no.

For example, 3/2.1 indicates the input source has 5.1
channels, consisting of three front channels, two sur-
round channels, and an LFE channel. Likewise, 3/3.1
indicates the input source has 6.1 channels, consisting of
three front channels, two surround channels, a surround
back channel, and an LFE channel.
