CALREC Putting Sound in the Picture 73
A dialogue box will appear which allows
the meter source to be chosen. Select
the required source from mains, groups,
tracks, auxes, channel inputs or other.
Subsequent columns will list the available
options for that source.
When all options are selected, APPLY
TO SELECTED will apply the source
to the selected meter position only. In
the case of TFT, twin or multiple-way
meters, APPLY TO ROW will allocate that
source to the selected meter position,
and subsequent sources in the list will be
applied to all the meter positions to the
right of the selected meter position in the
row, until the row is full, or you run out of
sources in the list.
When selecting channel inputs to be
metered, the fader number is selected,
and the path A or B. Alternatively, the
meter can be set to follow the fader’s
currently assigned path selection (A or B).
For surround CRLS and Meters 1-4, the
width of the TFT meter will automatically
change to match the source.
Clear All
“Clear All” resets all the meter positions,
clearing all settings on all meters in the
upstand. A confirmation box must be
accepted before this action is carried
out, this is to prevent against accidental
changes.
Tracks on TFT Meters
2 tracks can be displayed in any single
meter position. However, if the meter
position occupies a column which is
1/8 of the screen width (that half of the
screen being set to 4 columns wide),
then 4 tracks can be displayed allowing
the track metering to occupy a smaller
space. When selecting Tracks to meter,
the first available options column allows
two tracks to be selected for display in
that meter position. The next available
options column will then allow selection of
the next two tracks. It is useful to change
the colours for pairs of mono meters such
as tracks, so that the left of the pair is a
different colour to the right.
Copy to End
If a source has been allocated to a meter,
and that meter is selected, COPY TO
END can be used to allocate subsequent
sources in the list to all the meter positions
to the right of the selected meter position
in the row, until the row is full, or you run
out of sources in the list. This is similar to
APPLY TO ROW in the pop up dialogue
box, COPY TO END allows you to do this
after the first meter has had a source
allocated.
Change Scale
Each meter can be PPM, VU or Phase.
There can be up to 128 phase meters
assigned in the configuration, after all have
been assigned the option will no longer be
available. The scale type can be selected
individually for each meter or globally for all
meters. This applies for both standard and
TFT meters. Scales available to the user
are set in the Set-up Application from a list
which is longer than the system is capable
of.
