Selects how many audio meters you want to display.

You may select any number of channels from 1 to 16.

Active Channel Only

Allows a choice of All channels or Active channels only.

Selecting Active will override the Display Channels setting.

Meter Columns

Allows a choice of displaying Level Meters is Dual (2) or Quad (4) columns.

Display Type

Allows a choice between Overlap and Overlay modes. Overlap is opaque and will block part of the video

image where the Level Meters appear. Overlay is Halftone (semi-transparent) so video can be seen through the

Level Meters.

Front Volume

Adjusts Headphone and speaker volume on the front panel. This value is adjustable from 0 to 40. Setting to 0

will Mute the output.

Rear Volume

Adjusts the Line Output jack on the rear panel. This value is adjustable from 0 to 40. Setting to 0 will Mute the

output.

Headroom Start

Adjusts the point at which the level meters will change color from Green to Yellow. This is normally the level

used for alignment. For digital audio in the US, the SMPTE standard is -20dBFS = 0VU = +4dBu.

The European EBU standard is -18dBFS = 0VU. Other Alignment standards can be set using this menu.

Headroom End

Adjusts the point at which the level meters will change color from Yellow to Red. There is no official standard

to where this point should occur. This is an arbitrary setting to give visual warning that the program level is

peaking near the 0dBFS point at which there are no more bits and clipping will occur.

Left Channel / Right Channel

These menus are used to designate which one of the available 16 audio channels will be assigned to either the

Left, Right, or both outputs for listening. For example, the user can choose to send CH 1 to the left output and

CH 2 to the Right output, or the user can assign CH 1 to both Left and Right for a mono feed.

Load CH Preset From >

Use this menu to recall one of the 8 possible memory locations where the user previously stored channel output

assignments. Use of this Load command will override the current channel output assignments.
