ADjUSTING CHANNEL LEVELS 'ON THE FLY'

You can make changes to the relative levels of center, surround and
subwoofer outputs without having to go into the 'Speaker Levels' menu.
This is very convenient in circumstances like increasing (or tone down)
a film's dialog level by raising (lowering) the center channel or reducing
excessive deep bass (or enhance deep bass) by lowering (raising) the
subwoofer level.
Use the HTRC 1's 'SURR, ' 'CENT' and 'SUB' keys for direct-access level
adjustment of these channels over a range of ±6 dB.
The surround back channels (if any) adjust in lockstep with the surround
channels.
NOTE
Level settings adjusted 'On the Fly' are added or subtracted to the setup
levels established at the T 785 level-calibration routine as invoked by the
HTRC 1 'Test' key. However, selecting any Preset will revert the channel
levels to those stored in the preset. It will also take T 785 off the levels set
via Audyssey Auto Calibration.

ZONE SETUP

The Zone feature allows one to simultaneously experience in different
zones of the house multiple sound and applicable video sources from all
enabled Sources as well as from Front Input, Media Player and Tuner.
The T 785 has three configurable Zones – Zone 2, Zone 3 and Zone 4. Use
a combination of or ENTER and
Setup menu parameters.
6
keys to navigate through the Zone
VOLUME
Zone 2 have Fixed and Variable volume control. When set to 'Variable'
and while at the 'Zone Controls' menu OSD, the Zone 2 Volume level can
be adjusted using the HTRC 1's or the corresponding front panel
navigation buttons or directly via ZR 4's VOL
On the other hand, if Volume is set to 'Fixed, ' the Zone 2 Volume is set to
a preset dB level and thereafter the Zone's volume can be varied via the
volume control of the separate amplifier it is fed into.
MODE
Zone 3 and Zone 4 can be configured into two modes – Record Out and
Zone (Audio Only). If the selected mode is Record Out, the audio and
applicable video signal of the assigned Source are directly sent out to the
applicable Audio/Video Output (See Item 5. AUDIO 3 OUT/VIDEO 3 OUT/S-
VIDEO 3 OUT, AUDIO 4 OUT/VIDEO 4 OUT/SVIDEO 4 OUT of REAR PANEL
discussion.) When Zone 3 or Zone 4 is set to 'Record Out' mode, they will not
be available at the 'Zone Controls' section of the Main Menu window.
'Record Out' setting is ideal for making recordings with a VCR or other
similar devices. This setting is also used for multi-zone installations using
passive 'impedance matching' volume controls. See your NAD dealer for
specific information about integrating your NAD Receiver into a multi-room
audio distribution system.
Zone 2 and Zone 3 'Volume' will function the same way as that of Zone 2
when 'Mode' is set to 'Zone (Audio Only). '
See discussion also on 'Zone Controls' at the Main Menu.
NOTE
The ZR 4 remote control will only control Zone 2 applications.

AMPLIFIER SETUP

If the surround back speakers are not used in the main zone, their surround
back amplifier channels could be assigned for Main back, Main Front (Bi-
Amp) and multi-zone use.
The Surround Back amplifier is configurable through the following settings
• Main Back: Assign as surround back speakers.
• Main Front (Bi-Amp): Provide a bi-amp mode for the Main Front
speakers (Left and Right) speakers thus reproducing the Front Left and
Front Right amplifier channel outputs.
• Zone 2: Assign the surround back amplifier channels to supply Zone 2
speaker level outputs from the surround back speaker terminals.
• Zone 3: Assign the surround back amplifier channels to supply Zone 3
speaker level outputs from the surround back speaker terminals.
• Zone 4: Assign the surround back amplifier channels to supply Zone 4
speaker level outputs from the surround back speaker terminals.
