Dynamic Range Control
DRC adds or removes a degree of compression to compensate for the difference in the dynamic range between radio
stations. For example, a station broadcasting popular music may a high level of compression applied since the
emphasis is on a constant high listening level, whereas a station broadcasting classical music will have little or no
compression as the listener requires all of the highs and lows in the music to define the detail.
There are three levels of compression:
• DRC 0 No compression applied.
• DRC 1 Maximum Compression applied (this is the default).
• DRC ½ Medium Compression applied.
The best way to determined which of these settings suits you best is to experiment with them on a variety of
source material.
1. Press the Menu Button to access the Menu control.
2. Press the Navigation Buttons until ‘DRC value’ is displayed.
3. Press the Select Button to access ‘DRC value’. The current DRC level will be displayed on line 2 of the
display.
4. Press the Navigation Buttons to select between the three DRC values. The available option appears on
line 3 of the display.
5. When the required DRC value is displayed press the Select Button to confirm. You should be hear the
difference in compression immediately.
6. Prune Station – No or Yes.
