Multi Input Setup - Rotel RSP-1098 Manuel De L'utilisateur

CINEMA EQ: The RSP-1098 includes a CIN-
EMA EQ feature which reduces the high-fre-
quency content of movie soundtracks to simulate
the frequency response of a large movie the-
ater and/or eliminate sibilance. You can turn
the CINEMA EQ on or off as the default set-
ting for the selected input using this menu
choice. In general, this setting should be OFF
for most source inputs, unless you are consis-
tently bothered by excessively bright sound from
movie soundtracks.
12V TRIGGER: The RSP-1098 has four 12V
trigger outputs (labeled 1, 2, 3, and ZONE2)
that supply a 12V DC signal to turn on Rotel
components and other components as needed.
This menu item turns on specific 12V trigger
outputs whenever the indicated source is se-
lected. For example, you set up the VIDEO 1
input to turn on the 12V trigger for your DVD
player. The options for this menu item are:
1/2/3/1+2/1+3/2+3/ALL/NO.
DEFAULT MODE: The DEFAULT MODE set-
ting allows you to set a default surround sound
mode for each source input. The default set-
ting will be used unless the source material
triggers automatic decoding of a particular type
or unless the default setting is temporarily over-
ridden by the front panel or remote surround
mode buttons.
: Default surround modes are stored in-
NOTE
dependently for the analog and digital inputs
for each source.
Options for the default surround modes are:
Dolby Pro Logic II, Dolby 3 Stereo, Music 1,
Music 2, Music 3, Music 4, 5ch Stereo, 7ch
Stereo, PCM 2 Channel, DTS Neo:6, Bypass
(for analog input only), and Stereo.
: The following types of digital discs or
NOTE
source material are generally detected auto-
matically and the proper decoding activated
with no action or setting required: DTS, DTS-ES
Matrix 6.1, DTS-ES Discrete 6.1, Dolby Digi-
tal, Dolby Digital Surround EX, Dolby Digital
2-channel, MPEG Multichannel, PCM 2-Chan-
nel, PCM 96kHz, MP3, HDCD, and HDCD
96kHz.
Since Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS sources are
detected and decoded automatically, the de-
fault setting typically tells the RSP-1098 how
to process a 2-channel stereo signal. For ex-
ample, you might have your CD input default
to 2-channel stereo, DVD and VCR inputs default
33
to Dolby Pro Logic II processing for matrix-
encoded Dolby surround material, and TUNER
input default to one of the MUSIC modes.
In some cases, the default setting can be manu-
ally overridden by the front panel MODE button
or the SUR+ button on the remote. See the
Manually Selecting Surround Modes section
of this manual for more information on which
settings can be overridden.
Two of the default surround mode settings
available on this menu offer additional choices.
Dolby Pro Logic II decoding offers a choice
of CINEMA, MUSIC, or EMULATION settings.
DTS Neo:6 decoding offers a choice of CIN-
EMA or MUSIC settings. When either Dolby
Pro Logic II or DTS Neo:6 is selected with this
menu item, the current setting choice will also
be displayed. In addition, the function of the
ENTER button changes, taking you to a sub-
menu where you can change the settings and/
or additional parameters for Dolby Pro Logic
II or DTS Neo:6 decoding. See the following
section for details.
GROUP DELAY: Also known as "lip-sync"
delay, this setting delays the audio signal for
an input by the specified amount to match the
video input. This feature can be useful when
the video signal is delayed more than the audio
signal as sometimes happens with upconverted
digital TV processors or when trying to match
a radio broadcast with the video from a sports
event.
The range of available settings is from 0ms
to 500ms, in 5ms increments. The setting is
individually stored for each input and is the
default group delay each time that input is se-
lected. The setting can be temporarily over-
ridden from the front panel or the remote.
OPTIONS: This selection is only visible when
Pro Logic II or Neo:6 surround mode is selected.
Highlight this line and press ENTER to go to
submenus with additional options for these
surround modes. See below.
To return to the MAIN menu from the INPUT
SETUP menu (except when Dolby Pro Logic II
or DTS Neo:6 is selected in the SURR MODE
field), press the ENTER button. Press the MENU/
OSD button on the remote to cancel the menu
display and return to normal operation.

MAIN MENU
When the MULTI INPUT source is selected on
the INPUT SETUP menu, the available options
change to reflect the fact that these inputs are
direct analog inputs and bypass the RSP-1098's
digital processing. The INPUT, CINEMA EQ,
and DEFAULT MODE options are not available
since these are all digitally implemented fea-
tures.
The VID INPUT, INPUT LABEL, and 12V TRIG-
GER options are still available and work as
described on the previous menu.
One additional option, LFE REDIRECT, provides
an alternative bass management configura-
tion. Typically, the eight channels of the MULTI
INPUT are configured as pure analog bypass
signals, going straight from the inputs to the
volume control and the preamp outputs, by-
passing all of the digital processing. There are
no crossovers and no bass management; there-
fore, whatever signal goes into the subwoofer
channel will be sent to the subwoofer preamp
output.
This configuration may not be ideal for multi-
channel systems configured with high-pass
speakers, redirecting bass to a powered sub-
woofer. An option, called LFE REDIRECT, sends
the seven main channels directly to the out-
puts as usual. In addition, it takes a duplicate
copy of these seven channels, combines them
into mono, and routes them through a 100
Hz analog low-pass crossover to the subwoofer
preamp output. This creates a summed mono
subwoofer signal, derived from the seven main
channels of the MULTI INPUT.
Use the LFE REDIRECT off for the pure analog
bypass configuration. Use the LFE REDIRECT
on setting to derive the mono summed sub-
woofer output.
