level meter features

level meter

Each input includes a five-segment

LED meter

for visually monitoring signal levels.This is essential for setting up and main-

taining proper gain structure.

peak indicator—PK

The input signal is monitored at several points throughout the chan-

nel.These points are the mic preamp, the EQ stage and the fader stage.

Overloads at any of these stages will cause the red peak-

LED to light.

Then the channel gain should reduced.

signal level LED’s

These three LED's light up at +8—yellow, 0—green, and -6 dB—

green. This level range -6 to +8 is the optimum operating range.

Compressed or relatively constant signals should remain close to 0.

signal present indicator—SIG

This green-LED varies in brightness in response to signal levels

between -40 dB and -6 dB.

LED

Occasional flashing of the

peak LED is acceptable,

but frequent flashes indi-

cate that channel levels

must be lowered.

If the channel peak

LED is illuminated,

first try lowering

the input gain control.

Only when this method is

unsuccessful should the pad

switch be engaged.
