EFFECT +/– button
Use these buttons to increase or decrease the
amount of effect applied in a DSP or Advanced
Theater mode. When the amount of effect is
increased in a DSP/Advanced Theater mode the
characteristics of that mode become stronger and
more noticeable. The scale ranges from 10-90 with
70 as the default setting.  First turn on the DSP/
Advanced Theater mode you want (by pressing the
DSP/Advanced Theater button until you get the
mode) and then increase or decrease the amount
of effect.
