11.5 DRC (Dynamic Range Control)
Some DAB network radio stations support a volume control feature that actively takes effect during playback. If the volume suddenly increases, DRC automatically lowers it. If
the volume suddenly becomes quieter, DRC automatically raises it. The same happens when playback is suddenly quiet. The radio then increases the volume again.

DRC high:
total equalization of different volumes. Strong compression can audibly reduce the dynamics of a music title.
DRC low:
partial equalization of different volumes. More subtle compression, without too much loss of dynamics.
DRC off:
no equalisation.
Proceed as follows to do the settings:
