Introduction
Welcome to the exciting world of digital home entertainment. The DSP-AX1 is the most complete and advanced AV amplifier
available. Though some of the more advanced features of this unit may not be familiar to you, they are easy to use. Incorporated state-
of-the-art technology such as Dolby Digital and DTS can bring the same audio experience to your home as they have brought to feature
films in quality theaters around the world. To make the listening experience even more enjoyable, the DSP-AX1 includes a number of
exclusive, digitally created listening environments known as digital sound fields. Choosing a sound field program is like transporting
yourself to such venues as an outdoor arena, an European church, or a cozy jazz club. Take some time now to read more about these
features and enjoy the new experiences the DSP-AX1 brings to your home theater.
Dolby Digital and Dolby Digital Surround EX
The DSP-AX1 is equipped with a Dolby Digital decoder which reproduces industry standard Dolby Digital surround sound for a
cinematic audio experience in your home. Dolby Digital is a 5.1 channel format because it uses five discrete channels (left and right
Main channels, Center channel, and left and right Rear channels) and a special low frequency channel (that is used only enough to merit
the “0.1” channel rating) to create incredibly realistic 360˚ surround effects. Recently, Dolby Digital Surround EX was introduced in
movie theaters as an advanced surround technology. The addition of a Rear Center channel makes front-to-back transitions more
realistic. You can enjoy the newest Dolby Digital Surround EX software with the CINEMA DSP programs in the DSP-AX1 such as
Dolby Digital/Matrix 6.1.
DTS and DTS ES
The DSP-AX1 is also equipped with a DTS decoder, which uses a 5.1 channel system to create a full surround sound environment. It
was developed as a way to replace the analog soundtracks of movies with six channels of digital sound. In comparison with Dolby
Digital, DTS uses less compression to store the sound information. The newly presented DTS ES system reproduces digital sound
similar to Dolby Digital Surround EX. The use of the Rear Center speaker along with the existing 5.1 channel speakers provides a fully
immersive cinematic audio experience.
Comparing Surround Technologies
To enjoy dynamic feature film sound at home, you should have the appropriate sound reproduction system for your home theater. The
traditional standard for home surround systems was called Dolby Surround and consisted of four channels (left and right Main channels,
a Center channel, and a Surround channel for effects). The new home theater standard is Dolby Digital and consists of 5.1 channels (left
and right Main channels, a Center channel, left and right Rear channels, and an LFE (low frequency effect) channel). The newer DTS
surround technology also makes use of a 5.1 channel system. The 6.1 channel system which adds a Rear Center channel to the 5.1
channel configuration is the latest advancement in surround sound technology, and is employed by Dolby Digital Surround EX and DTS
ES.

Features
Digital Sound Fields (DSP)
Technological advances in sound reproduction over the last 30 years have enhanced the listening experience with improved clarity,
precision, and power. However, something has been missing: the atmosphere and acoustic ambience of the public venue. Our Yamaha
engineers have extensively researched the nature of sound acoustics and the way sound reflects inside a room. We sent these engineers
to famous theaters and concert halls around the world to measure the acoustics of those venues with sophisticated microphones. The
data they collected is used to recreate these environments in digital sound fields. Some of these digital sound fields have been created
using data measured at the original venue; others have been created from combinations of data to form unique environments for specific
purposes. Some have been designed especially for music, and others especially for movies. Of course, this only solves half of the
problem. Because these engineers have no way of knowing the acoustics of your entertainment room, we have made it possible for you
to adjust the various parameters of this data to tailor each virtual venue to your taste. You can use these sound fields to enhance any
source and in combination with any of the following surround sound technologies.
CINEMA-DSP: Dolby Digital + DSP and DTS + DSP
The Dolby Digital system and DTS system show their full capability in large movie theaters, because feature film soundtracks
are designed to be reproduced in such environments. It is difficult to recreate a sound environment similar to a movie theater in
your entertainment room because of the room size, wall materials, and the number of speakers in your entertainment system.
Yamaha DSP technology makes it possible for you to enjoy nearly the same sound experience as that of a large movie theater in
your entertainment room by compensating for lack of presence and dynamics in your entertainment room with Yamaha's original
digital sound fields combined with Dolby Digital or DTS soundtracks.
Virtual CINEMA DSP and HP CINEMA DSP
Yamaha developed the Virtual CINEMA DSP algorithm which allows you to experience the virtual sound fields without
surround speakers. This makes it possible for the DSP-AX1 to produce a full surround sound catering to the number of speakers
you have. The DSP-AX1 also has an HP (Headphones) CINEMA DSP algorithm which is achieved by the crosstalk processing
applying the precise Head Related Transfer Function. You can therefore enjoy listening to the CINEMA DSP soundfields on
headphones.
Multi-function remote control
The remote control can operate other audio-video components once you program the remote control using the manufacturer code and
Learn feature.
Various Input and Output Jacks
The DSP-AX1 has various output jacks for audio and video signals as well as a digital recording output jack. Many input jacks are also
available for connection to multiple audio-video sources. All the video inputs and outputs have S-video jacks in addition to standard
composite video jacks for improved video picture quality. Component video input and output jacks are also available to deliver the
excellent video signals from DVD players and other high quality video sources. The coaxial and optical digital signal jacks (provided
for direct transmission of digital signals) automatically detect Dolby Digital, DTS, and PCM signals. A demodulator circuit is built into
the Dolby Digital RF input so you can connect it directly to the Dolby Digital RF signal output on your LD player. Additionally, there
are six audio inputs for disscrete multichannel reproduction from an external decoder.
The DSP-AX1 also comes with a monaural subwoofer jack and split subwoofer jacks which can reproduce delicate but powerful low
frequency effects.

Remote Control
Installing Batteries in the Remote Control
Insert the batteries in the correct direction by aligning the + and – marks on the batteries with the polarity illustrations (+ and –) inside the
battery compartment.
Change the batteries periodically. Do not use old batteries together with new ones.
Do not use different types of batteries (such as alkaline and manganese batteries) together. Read the packaging carefully as these different
types of batteries may have the same shape and color.
■ About Changing Batteries
As the batteries wear out, the operating range of the remote control decreases and
the TRANSMIT indicator does not flash or its light becomes dim. When you
notice any of these conditions, change all of the batteries.
Reset button
Notes:
• If the remote control is without batteries for more than 20 minutes, or if worn out
batteries remain in the unit, the contents of the memory may be cleared.
If the memory is cleared, insert new batteries and reprogram any functions that may
have been cleared.
• After you insert new batteries, be sure to push RESET in the battery compartment
using a ball point pen or similar object before using the remote control. (This does not
clear the contents of the memory.)
Using the Remote Control
The remote control transmits a directional infrared beam. Be sure to aim the remote control directly at the remote control sensor on this unit
during operation. When the sensor is covered or there is a large object between the remote control and the main unit, the sensor cannot
receive signals. The sensor may not be able to receive signals properly when it is exposed to direct sunlight or a strong artificial light (such as
a fluorescent or strobe light). In this case, change the direction of the light or reposition the main unit to avoid direct lighting.

Speaker System Configurations
The most complete speaker configuration consists of eight speakers: the left and right Main speakers, a Center speaker, the left and right Rear
speakers, the left and right Front Effect speakers, and a Rear Center speaker. If you do not use eight speakers, you can direct the signals for
speakers that are not in your system to other speakers in your configuration. A Subwoofer can be used with any of these configurations to
produce a fuller sound.

Rear Subwoofer
■
Eight or Seven Speaker Configuration –Full Cinema DSP–
When you reproduce feature film software, this configuration fullly expresses the
powerful and realistic sound qualities of 70 mm multitrack audio. The dialogue is
positioned as if it were coming from directly on the screen, the sound effect is
positioned slightlly behind the screen, and the soundtrack music is positioned
even further behind the screen to express the width and depth of the overall
presentation. This configuration makes the most of this unit's capability.
(
)
The Rear Center speaker is useful for playback of Dolby Digital Surround EX or
DTS ES.
■ Six Speaker Configuration –Hi Fi DSP–
This configuration is used the most for audio playback with HiFi DSP. It does not
position the dialogue sound as well as a seven or eight speaker configuration.
However, it creates a dynamic DSP (Digital Sound Field Processor) sound field
which adds depth to the sound.
For this speaker configuration, change SET MENU item 1A. CENTER SP to
“NONE” and 1D. REAR CT SP to “NONE” (see page 37).
■ Five Speaker Configuration –Standard 5.1 Channel–
This configuration does not express the height of the sound field as well as the
seven or eight speaker configuration. However, it positions the dialogue sound as
coming directly from the screen.
For this speaker configuration, change SET MENU item 1F. FRNT EFCT SP to
“NONE” and 1D. REAR CT SP to “NONE” (see page 37).
■
Four Speaker Configuration –Minimum Requirement–
In this configuration, the Center speaker signals and Front Effect speaker signals
are directed to the left and right Main speakers.
For this speaker configuration, change SET MENU item 1A. CENTER SP to
“NONE,” item 1F. FRNT EFCT SP to “NONE,” and item 1D. REAR CT SP to
“NONE” (see page 37).

Speaker Placement
Where you place your speakers has a tremendous effect on how well your system sounds.
■ Placing the Main Speakers
Main
speaker
Main
speaker
TV or Video
monitor
Place the left and right Main speakers an equal distance from the main listening
position.
If you have a TV or video monitor in your system, the distance of each speaker
from each side of the TV or video monitor should be the same.
■ Placing the Center Speaker
TV or Video
monitor
If you have a TV or video monitor in your system, align the front face of the
Center speaker with the front face of the monitor. Place the speaker as close to the
monitor as possible, such as directly over or under the monitor. If you place the
speaker under the monitor, the Front Effect speakers can adjust the height of the
sound to correspond with the action on the screen (depending on the listener’s
position). If you have a projection screen in your system, place the Center speaker
under the screen. Be sure to align the speaker with the center of the screen.
Center speaker

1m 0.5~1m 1.5~3m 0.5~1m 1m
Speakers
(3ft) (1~3ft) (5~15ft)
(1~3ft) (3ft)
These speakers should be placed about 0.5~1m (1~3 feet) outside the Main
speakers and in the front of the room. They should be turned toward the main
listening position. Place the Rear speakers in the back of the room so they face the
main listening position. The Rear speakers can be placed farther apart than the
Front Effect speakers. The Front Effect and Rear speakers should be placed about
1.8m (6 feet) above the floor.
L
C
R
Once you begin listening to programs, continue to adjust the speaker placement
until you obtain a balanced sound from the Main speakers and the Front Effect
and Rear speakers.
■ When You Use a Projection Screen
Place the speakers as shown in the illustration.
The Main speakers should be placed about one-quarter of the way up from the
bottom of the screen.
1
L
R
1/4
Place the Center speaker in the center and directly under the screen. The Center
speaker provides precise dialogue localization.
C
When you use a projection screen with your system, the Front Effect speakers
provide better effect quality. The CINEMA-DSP sound field programs (see page
34) raise the sound from the Center speaker upward and provide natural sound
corresponding with the video images.
■ Placing the Subwoofers
Place the Front Subwoofer near the Main speakers. Turn it slightly toward the center of the room to reduce wall reflections.
If you use a Rear Subwoofer, place it behind the main listening position. The placement of the Rear Subwoofer is not critical because of
the ultralow frequencies of the sound being reproduced.
By adding a high quality Subwoofer to the speaker configurations shown on pages 21 and 22, you can enjoy more powerful and realistic
movie effects, even if your Main speakers are large.
Note:
Front Effect
speakers
Rear speakers
•
If you use different brands of speakers (with different tonal qualities) in your
configuration, the tone of a moving human voice and other types of sound may not
shift smoothly. We recommend that you use speakers from the same manufacturer or
speakers with the same tonal quality.
Main speakers
You can also adjust the output levels and equalization of your effect speakers using the
SET MENU (see page 37).
If you are using small speakers, the addition of a Subwoofer will reinforce the sound
effects of movies (see page 21).

Hookups
Connecting to Digital Jacks
The DSP-AX1 has digital jacks for direct transmission of digital signals through either coaxial or fiber optic cables. You can use the digital
jacks to input PCM, DTS and Dolby Digital bitstreams. When you connect components to both the COAXIAL and OPTICAL jacks (for CD,
DVD, and CBL/SAT) priority is given to the input signals from the COAXIAL jack. All digital input jacks are acceptable for 96 kHz/24 bit
digital signals.
■ About the Dust Protection Cap
Pull out the cap from the optical jack before you connect the fiber optic cable.
Do not discard the cap. When you are not using the optical jack, be sure to put the
cap back in place. This cap protects the jack from dust.
About the Video Jacks
There are three types of video jacks. Video signals input through the VIDEO jacks are the conventional composite video signals. Video
signals input through the S VIDEO jacks are separated into luminance (Y) and color (C) video signals. The S-video signals achieve high
quality color reproduction.
Video signals input through the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks are separated into luminance (Y) and color difference (PB/CB, PR/CR) video
signals. The jacks are also separated into three for each signal. The description of the component video jacks may be different depending on
the component (e.g. Y, CB, CR / Y, PB, PR / Y, B-Y, R-Y/ etc.). Component video signals provide the best quality in picture reproduction.
Composite VIDEO terminal
Note:
• Each type of video jack works independently. Signals input through the composite
video, S-video, and component jacks are output through the corresponding composite
video, S-video, and component jacks respectively.
S VIDEO terminal
Caution:
• Use a commercially available S-video cable when connecting to the S VIDEO jacks,
and commercially available video cables when connecting to the COMPONENT
VIDEO jacks.
• When you are using the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks, check the details in the owner’s

DIGITAL OPTICAL or analog AUDIO jacks.
Caution:
• Even if you connect an LD player with an
RF (AC-3) output jack to this unit, you
cannot reproduce Dolby Digital sound from all LD discs. You must playback an LD
disc encoded with Dolby Digital signals in order to take advantage of the Dolby Digital
sound.

Connecting Speakers
This section explains how to connect speakers to the DSP-AX1. After you finish connecting your speakers, use the SET MENU to change
the signal output settings according to the number and size of the speakers in your configuration.
■ Using Speaker Cords
A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables running side by side. One of
the cables is colored or shaped differently, perhaps with a stripe, groove or ridge.
To make sure you always connect speakers with the correct polarity, determine
the difference between the cables of your speaker cord, make a note of which
cable you plan to use for which polarity (+ and –), and always connect the speaker
cords consistently.
1
2
Strip off 9 mm (3/8 in.) of insulation from the ends of the cables.
Twist the exposed wires of the cable together to prevent short
circuits.
BANANA PLUG
3
4
Loosen the terminal knob by turning it counterclockwise.
Insert only the exposed portion of the cable into the slot in the side of
the terminal, and tighten the terminal knob.
Note:
•
If your speaker cords have banana plugs, tighten the terminal knob and insert the
plug into the end of the terminal. (Except for Europe and UK Models)
[Except for Europe and UK models]
Caution:
•
Connect the speaker cords with care to avoid creating a short circuit. If you turn on
the power and there is a short circuit, this unit may be damaged even though the
protection circuit automatically shuts off the power.

Input Modes and Indications
The DSP-AX1 comes with various input jacks. If your external component is connected to more than one type of input jack, you can set the
priority of the input signal. Press INPUT MODE on the front panel or an input button (press it repeatedly) on the remote control to display or
change the input mode.
AUTO: ................. This mode is automatically selected when you turn on the power of this
AUTO
unit. In this mode, the input signal is automatically selected in the
following order.
1) Dolby Digital or DTS encoded signals
2) Digital (PCM) signals
3) Analog signals
DTS: ..................... In this mode, only digital input signals encoded with DTS are selected
even if other signals are input at the same time.
ANALOG: ........... In this mode, only analog input signals are selected even if digital signals
are input at the same time.
<When LD is selected as the input source>
Dolby Digital RF
AUTO: ................. In this mode, this unit automatically selects the signal in the following
order.
1) Dolby Digital RF encoded signals
2) DTS encoded signals
3) Digital (PCM) signals
DTS
4) Analog signals
D.D. RF:............... This unit only selects Dolby Digital RF signals.
DTS: ..................... This unit only selects DTS signals.
DGTL:.................. This unit only selects digital signals input through the OPTICAL jacks.
ANALOG: ........... This unit only selects signals input through the ANALOG jacks. This unit
DIGITAL
will not select Dolby Digital RF or DTS signals.
Notes:
• For CD, DVD, and CBL/SAT sources, if digital signals are input from both the
OPTICAL and COAXIAL terminals, the digital signal from the COAXIAL terminal is
selected.
• When the “AUTO” mode is selected, the DSP-AX1 automatically determines the type
of signal. If the DSP-AX1 detects a DTS or Dolby Digital signal, the decoder
automatically switches to the appropriate setting and reproduces 5.1 channel sound.
• When you use functions such as pause, search, or disc change while playing a disc
encoded with DTS signals, the DTS indicator flashes until the next playback starts.
ANALOG
• If you play a disc encoded with DTS signals and the input mode is set to “ANALOG”,
this unit reproduces the noise of an unprocessed DTS signal. When you want to play a
DTS source, be sure to connect the source to a digital input jack and set the input mode
to “AUTO” or “DTS.”
• If you switch the input mode to “ANALOG” while playing a disc encoded with DTS
signals, this unit reproduces no sound.
• For LD software that does not contain a digital soundtrack, connect the LD player to
the analog jacks and set the input mode to “AUTO” or “ANALOG.”
• The input mode resets to “AUTO” after you turn off the power. When the current input
source is D-TV, CBL/SAT, and VCR 1, the input mode resets to the one set using the
15. INPUT MODE item in the SET MENU after you turn off the power (see page 48).
• If the LD player is transmitting signals in a non-standard method, the DSP-AX1 cannot
detect the DTS or Dolby Digital signal. In this case, the decoder automatically switches
to PCM or analog.
• Some audio/video equipment, such as LD players, output different audio signals
through their analog and digital jacks. Change the input mode as necessary.

•
If a DTS or Dolby Digital signal is input when the input mode is set to “AUTO”,
the sound field program automatically switches to the appropriate decoding
program.
Choose a sound field program based on your listening preference, not on the name
of the program. The acoustics of your listening room affect the sound field
program. Minimize the sound reflections in your room to maximize the effect
created by the program.
6.1/ES
If you want to utilize the Rear Center
speaker with a 5.1 channel program
source, press 6.1/ES. However, note
that to achieve the proper effect with the
rear center channel, Dolby Digital
Surround EX or DTS ES software
should be used.
•
•
•
When you select an input source, the main unit automatically selects the last sound
field program used with that source.
When you turn off the main unit, the current source and sound field program are
memorized and are automatically selected when you turn on the power again.
When high rate 96kHz sampling 24 bit digital signals are output from source
equipment, the DSP sound field cannot operate on the source sounds. In this case,
the sounds are reproduced as normal 2-channel stereo.

Caution:
• The
RF (AC-3) input signal cannot be output using REC OUT/ZONE 2.
■ Special considerations when recording DTS
software
The DTS signal is a digital bitstream. Attempting to digitally record the DTS
bitstream will result in noise being recorded. Therefore, if you want to use this
unit to record sources that have DTS signals recorded on them, the following
considerations need to be made.
For DTS encoded LDs, DVDs, and CDs:
Only 2-channel analog audio signals may be recorded as follows:
Laser Discs:
Set your Laser Disc player’s left and right outputs to the analog soundtrack.
DVDs:
Use the disc menu to set the DVD player’s mixed 2-channel left and right audio
outputs to the PCM or Dolby Digital soundtrack.
Compact Discs:
The DTS signal recorded on CDs can only be output as a digital bitstream, and
therefore cannot be recorded.

(Wide Band Noise Produced)
The test tone is produced by the tone generator.
The tone generator produces a narrow band noise centered at a specified
frequency by the band pass filter.
NOISE
You can change the center frequency from 35 Hz through 250 Hz in one-sixth
octave steps.
You can use the test tone not only for adjusting the subwoofer level, but also for

■ 4A. LFE LEVEL
Use this feature to adjust the output level of the LFE (low frequency effect) channel when playing back DTS encoded software. This
setting is effective only when this unit decodes DTS signals. The LFE signal carries the low frequency special effect sound which is only
added to certain scenes.
You can adjust the levels from –10 dB to +10 dB.
• Adjust the LFE level according to the capacity of your subwoofer or headphones.
5. SP DELAY TIME
Use this feature to adjust the delay of the Center and the Rear Center channel sounds. This feature works when this unit decodes DTS or
Dolby Digital signals. Ideally, the Center speaker and the Rear Center speaker should be the same distance from the main listening position
as the left and right Main speakers. However, in most home situations, the Center speaker or the Rear Center speaker is placed in line with
the Main speakers or the Rear speakers. By delaying the sound from the Center speaker and the Rear Center speaker, the apparent distance
from the Center speaker and the Rear Center speaker to the main listening position can be adjusted to make it seem the same as the distance
between the left and right Main speaker, and the left and right Rear speakers to the listening position. Adjusting the delay time for the Center
speaker is especially important for giving depth to the dialogue.
You can adjust the delay time from 0 ms to 5 ms for the Center speaker and from 0 ms to 30 ms for the Rear Center
speaker.
• Increasing the delay 1 ms simulates moving the speakers about 30 cm (one foot) farther away from the listening position.

9. CINEMA EQ
Use this feature to match the tonal quality of four groups of speakers: the Main and Center speaker group, the Front Effect speakers group,
the Rear speakers group, and the Rear Center speaker group. CINEMA-EQ consists of a high-shelving equalizer (HIGH) and a parametric
equalizer (PEQ). The high-shelving equalizer changes high frequency characteristics, and the parametric equalizer boosts or cuts any selected
frequency. The equalizer can be used for a variety of purposes, such as adjusting the tonal quality of differing types of speakers, adjusting the
tonal quality in different installation environments, or adjusting the source sound to your liking.
The CINEMA EQ characteristic charts below show the value of the CINEMA EQ factory settings for each speaker group for general
listening conditions.

Remote Control Features
The remote control can operate the main unit as well as other Yamaha audio and video components. To control the components of other
manufacturers (or some Yamaha), you must set up the remote control with the manufacturer’s codes. This remote control also has a
sophisticated Learn feature that allows it to acquire functions from the remote controls of other components in your system (or other
household appliances) equipped with infrared remote control receivers. The Macro feature allows you to program a series of operations in
sequence onto a single button, or use the factory preset macros to operate other Yamaha components. These features make it possible for you
to reduce the number of remote control units in your entertainment room.
Notes:

Remote Control Features
Setting the Manufacturer Code in the Remote Control
You can control other components by setting a manufacturer code. A code can be set up in each component controol area except for the
OPTN area. The Yamaha code is factory preset for DVD, LD, CD, MD, TUNER, and TAPE (Yamaha for LD, and Yamaha1 for others).
There is no factory preset code on VCR1/2/3, D-TV, CBSAT, V-AUX, and PHONO.

Programming a New Remote Control Function
If you desire to program functions not included in the basic operations covered by the manufacturer code, or a manufacturer code is not
available, the following procedure needs to be performed. The possible programming area is the same as a component control area, so
buttons are programmable independently for each source component area. It is also possible to program in the main unit control area.
(Refer to page 50 for details on component control area and main unit control area.)

•
If you do not press any button within 30 seconds, the learning process is canceled.
This remote control transmits infrared rays. If the other remote control also uses infrared rays, this remote control can learn most of the other remote
control’s functions. However, you may not be able to program some special signals or extremely long transmissions. (Refer to the operation instructions for
the other remote control.) When the memory is full, “FULL” appears in the display window, and this remote control cannot acquire any more functions.
Clear unnecessary programmed functions to allow the unit to acquire new functions.
•
Even if the batteries in the other remote control have enough power to transmit signals for operation, they may not have enough power to transmit signals to
this remote control.
•
•
•
When the remote controls are either too close together or too far apart, you may not be able to program this remote control.
Direct sunlight interferes with infrared rays.
“ERROR” appears in the display window in the following conditions: when pressing more than one button at once; and when MACRO ON/OFF is
switched to another position.

Remote Control Features
Using the Macro Feature
The Macro feature makes it possible to perform a series of operations by pressing just one button. For example, when you want to play a CD,
normally you would turn on the components, select the CD input, and press the play button to start playback. Using the Macro feature, you
can perform all those operations by simply pressing the CD macro button. The macro buttons (the input buttons and SYSTEM POWER
ON/STANDBY) are factory preset with macro programs. You can also program your own macros (see page 60).

■ Special considerations when using DTS software
The DTS signal is a digital bitstream. Therefore, if you attempt to send the DTS signal to Zone 2, you will only be able to hear the digital
noise that could damage your loudspeakers.
Due to this characteristic of DTS encoded discs, the following considerations and adjustments need to be made.
For DTS encoded LDs or DVDs
Only 2-channel audio signals may be sent to Zone 2, as follows:
• Laser disc – Set your Laser Disc player’s left and right outputs to the analog sound track.
• DVD disc – Use the disc menu to set the DVD player’s mixed 2-channel left and right audio outputs to PCM or Dolby Digital.
For DTS encoded compact discs
DO NOT USE the Zone 2 feature with DTS encoded compact discs.

Digital Sound Field Processing (DSP)
Understanding Sound Fields
A sound field is defined as the “characteristic sound reflections of a particular space.” In
concert halls and other music venues, we hear early reflections and reverberations as well
as the direct sound produced by the artist(s). The variations in the early reflections and
other reverberations among the different music venues is what gives each venue its
special and recognizable sound quality.
Yamaha sent teams of sound engineers all around the world to measure the sound
reflections of famous concert halls and music venues, and collect detailed sound field
information such as the direction, strength, range, and delay time of those reflections.
Then we stored this enormous amount of data in the ROM chips of the DSP-AX1.
Recreating a Sound Field
Recreating the sound field of a concert hall or an opera house requires localizing
the virtual sound sources in your listening room. The traditional stereo system that
uses only two speakers is not capable of recreating a realistic sound field.
Yamaha’s DSP requires four effect speakers to recreate sound fields based on the
measured sound field data. The processor controls the strength and delay time of
the signals output from the four effect speakers to localize the virtual sound
sources in a full circle around the listener.
FR
FL
The DSP sound field programs can be classified in two types based on the sound
field processing method: programs that use early reflections only and programs
that use both early reflections and reverberation.
RL
RR
E/R (Early Reflection)
Each sound field is distinguished by the structure of the reflected sound. The increased processing capability of DSP technology enables
Yamaha engineers to incorporate even minute reflections with long delay times into the sound field data.
4ch REV. (Four Channel Reverberation)
This type of program consists of early reflections and high quality digital reverberation processing. Reverberation is the most important
element for recreating the sound field of a church. To recreate a realistic spatial sound image from reverberation data, Yamaha has adapted
the four-channel-output reverberation technology.
Illustration of the Virtual Sound Sources and Echo Patterns
The virtual sound sources and echo patterns for the DSP sound field programs are shown below. The illustration of the virtual sound sources
shows early reflection sound only and the illustration of the echo patterns shows both reflected sound and reverberation.

CINEMA-DSP
The Sound Design of CINEMA-DSP Sound Field Programs
Filmmakers intend the dialog to be located right on the screen, the effect sound a little farther back, the music spread even farther back, and
the surround sound around the listener. Of course, all of these sounds must be synchronized with the images on the screen.
CINEMA-DSP is an upgraded version of YAMAHA DSP specially designed for movie soundtracks. CINEMA-DSP integrates the DTS,
Dolby Digital, and Dolby Pro Logic surround sound technologies with YAMAHA DSP sound field programs to provide the surround sound
field. It recreates the most complete movie sound design in your audio room. In CINEMA-DSP sound field programs, Yamaha’s exclusive
DSP processing is added to the front left, center, and right channels, so the listener can enjoy realistic dialogue, depth of sound, smooth
transition between sound sources, and a surround sound field that goes beyond the screen.
When a DTS or Dolby Digital signal is detected, the CINEMA-DSP sound field processor automatically chooses the most suitable sound
field program for that signal.

Each CINEMA-DSP program has its own type of sound field processing block. The sound field data, including the presence and surround
sound fields, are based on actual measured data. The presence and surround sound fields can be expressed in the distribution of virtual sound
sources and echo patterns. However, as these two types of sound fields are processed with complex elements such as energy balance and
mixing signal ratios, they are expressed as a sound field based on auditory perception.

Movie Theater Programs
Most movie software has four-channel (left, center, right and surround) sound information encoded using Dolby Surround matrix processing
and stored on the left and right tracks. These signals are processed by the Dolby Pro Logic decoder. The Movie Theater Programs are
designed to recreate the spaciousness and delicate nuances of sound that tend to be lost in the encoding and decoding processes.
The six-channel soundtracks found on 70 mm film produce precise sound field localization and rich, deep sound without using matrix
processing. The DSP-AX1’s Movie Theater 70 mm Programs provide the same quality of sound and sound localization that six-channel
soundtracks do. The built-in Dolby Digital decoder brings the professional quality sound designed for movie theaters, into your home. With
the DSP-AX1’s Movie Theater program, you can recreate a dynamic sound that gives you the feeling of being at a public theater in your
living room using the Dolby Digital technology.

Control Range ........... 0.1 - 2.0
Description ................ As the sound is repeatedly reflected around a room, the larger the hall is, the longer the time between the original
reflected sound and the subsequent reflections. By controlling the time between the reflected sounds, you can
change the apparent size of the virtual venue. Changing this parameter from one to two, doubles the apparent
length of the room.

Function .................... This parameter adjusts the apparent size of the rear center sound field.
Control Range ........... 0.1 - 2.0
Description ................ The larger the value, the more reflective the presence sound field walls become.
S. ROOM SIZE (Surround Room Size)
Function .................... This parameter adjusts the apparent size of the surround sound field.
Control Range ........... 0.1 - 2.0
Description ................ The larger the value, the larger the surround sound field becomes.
LIVENESS
Function .................... This parameter adjusts the reflectivity of the virtual walls in the hall by changing the rate at which the early
reflections decay.
Control Range ........... 0 - 10
Description ................ The early reflections of a sound source decay much faster in a room with acoustically absorbent wall surfaces
than in one which has highly reflective surfaces. A room with acoustically absorbent surfaces is referred to as
“dead,” while a room with highly reflective surfaces is referred to as “live.” The LIVENESS parameter lets you
adjust the early reflection decay rate, and thus the “liveness” of the room.

CINEMA - EQ Frequency Characteristics
Cinema EQ is a digital equalizer that lets you independently adjust the sound quality of each speaker.
■HIGH (High Shelving Filter): Adjusts high
frequency response smoothly. There are 16
responses affecting frequencies in the 1 to 12.7
kHz range, while gain is adjusted between +6 and
–9 dB.
■PEQ (Parametric Equalizer): Allows
smooth boost and cut at an arbitrary frequency
range. The center frequency can be in the 1 to
12.7 kHz range, with gain between +6 and –9 dB.
