HDD AUDIO PLAYERHAP-Z1ES

Using the Volume Normalization function (Volume Normalization)

If you set the Volume Normalization function to [Auto], the recording level of tracks or albums is analyzed when the music files are transferred and registered to the HDD AUDIO PLAYER, and the volume level is adjusted to minimize the difference in volume between each track or album during playback. Even if you play tracks from multiple albums with different volume levels in random order (shuffle play), this function stops the volume from increasing or decreasing for different tracks, allowing natural change in volume during playback.
When this function is set to [Off] (factory default setting), the volume level is not adjusted.

  1. Select [Settings] - [Audio Settings] in the Home screen.
  2. Select [Volume Normalization].
  3. Select [Auto].

Note

  • To use the Volume Normalization function, SensMe™ channel analysis of music files must be completed in advance as the Volume Normalization function determines the volume level of the music files based on the results of SensMe™ channel analysis.
  • The volume level will not be adjusted for music files that the HDD AUDIO PLAYER cannot analyze.
  • The volume level will not be adjusted for DSD format files.
