Meters submenu
This submenu lets you congure how the Intelli-X
2
’s bargraph
meters function.
Fallback time – default setting is Normal, but may be set to
Fast if preferred; this may make monitoring of rapid, transient
signals easier.
Clip Hold – may be set at any time between 0.2 s and 3 s.
The default is 2 s.
signal level will depend on the setting of Max. Analog out level
parameter which was set in the Local I/O submenu for the
particular Output Channel. With the default value of 21 dBu,
a digital output level of 0 dBFS is equivalent to an analogue
signal level of +21 dBu, and the two methods of setting the
limiter threshold will retain this relationship.
Peak Threshold – this is set in an identical manner to RMS
Threshold. The software prevents the Peak Threshold from
being lower than the RMS Threshold; if this were possible, the
peak limiter would be unable to operate. When the signal level
exceeds either threshold – i.e., when the limiter is working – the
Limit LED at the top of the output signal meter [12] illuminates.
Attack – this sets how rapidly the RMS limiter acts when the
programme level exceeds the RMS threshold. The default
value is 0.5 ms, and attack can be set in the range 0.1 ms to
100 ms. The attack time of the Peak Limiter is xed (and very
fast!)
Release – this sets how long it takes the gain reduction applied
by the RMS limiter to be removed after the signal level has
dropped below the relevant threshold. The default value is 5
ms, and release can be set in the range 5 ms to 10 s.
The release time of the Peak Limiter is xed.
Output channel submenu softkeys – Copying and Reset-
ting menu items
From within any of the Output Channel menu items, two further
softkey functions are available in addition to Copy Channel and
Gang/Ungang:
– Copy single menu item parameters. This function is
similar to Copy Channel, but only copies the parameters for the
currently-selected Output Channel menu item – e.g., if selected
from the X-Over screen, only the X-Over block’s parameters
will be copied.
– Reset single menu item parameters. When Reset
is selected, a Yesh or No i choice is offered; on selecting
Yes, the parameters for the currently-selected menu item are
reset to those stored in the currently-loaded Preset, effectively
cancelling any alterations that have been made since the
Preset was loaded.
