Using The Music Optimizer; Specifying The Digital Signal Format - Onkyo 29344937 Instruction Manual

Basic Operations—Continued

Using the Music Optimizer

The Music Optimizer function enhances the sound
quality of compressed music files. Use it with music files
that use "lossy" compression, such as MP3.
(North American models) To turn
the Music Optimizer "On" or
"Off", use the AV receiver's
[MUSIC OPTIMIZER] button .
The setting is stored individually for
each input selector.
Off: Music Optimizer off (default).
On: Music Optimizer on.
Tip:
This procedure can also be performed
on the remote controller by using
[AUDIO] button (see page 74).
Note:
The Music Optimizer function only works with PCM
digital audio input signals with a sampling rate below
48 kHz and analog audio input signals. The Music
Optimizer is disabled when the Direct or Pure Audio
listening mode is selected.

Specifying the Digital Signal Format

The following table shows the display indicator for each
digital signal format.
Format
Dolby Digital
DTS
PCM
Normally, the AV receiver detects the format of digital
input signals automatically. However, if you experience
either of the following issues when playing PCM or DTS
sources, you can specify the signal format manually.
• If the beginnings of tracks from a PCM source are cut
off, try the PCM setting.
• If noise is produced when fast forwarding or
rewinding a DTS CD, try the DTS setting.
• The setting is stored individually for each input
selector.

indicator will flash and there will be
no sound.
DTS:
Only DTS format input signals will
be heard. If the input signal is not
DTS, the DTS indicator will flash
