6.9 Dynamic Range Control (DRC)

The dynamic range for each radio programme is determined by the broadcaster and can be different for the types of
programmes broadcast, e.g. pop or classical music or a chat show.
The control signal for the dynamic range is transmitted in parallel to the audio signal for each programme.
You can use this control signal with your radio to expand or compress the dynamic range (the difference between
the loudest and softest sounds) of the audio signal being played back.
By changing the dynamic range you can influence the 'volume' and/or 'sound quality' of the programme and adapt it
to your own personal requirements.
There are 3 levels of compression:
• DRC Off: no compression. This is the default setting.
• DRC Low: medium compression.
• DRC High: maximum compression.
