Using the Pro Logic II Mode
Pro Logic processing can be conducted on the music signals recorded
on two channels to achieve Dolby Pro Logic II surround sound. For

FILL” function for outputting the signals of the front channel to the
rear channel.

Can be used for all stereo music recordings, and
provides a wide, deep sound field.

If PL II MUSIC is selected, the center width can be adjusted
with the following operations.
This function offers the optimum vocal position by adjusting
