Chapter 13: Metering 115
Metering Section
The Metering section includes Bus and Main Outputs meters.
All of the 10-segment meters in the meter bridge show levels
according to the following scale:
Bus Output Meters
The eight output level meters in the meter bridge are assign-
able as a unit for metering of Groups, Auxes, Matrixes, and
Personal Qs.
The Bus Output meters can automatically follow the current
Output fader bank assignment (indicating level for the cur-
rently selected Output bus), or be assigned to a bus output for
persistent bus level indication.
Stereo Output Metering
With stereo Groups the output level meters in the metering
section show level for only the highest of the left and right
channels.
To see level for both the left and right channels of a stereo out-
put, refer to the on-screen meters, or target the channel on the
ACS and use the Selected Channel Level Meters.
Selecting Output Meter Display
To select an output type for metering:
Press the Select switch in the metering section to cycle
through available choices (Auto, Aux 1–8, Aux 9–16, Personal
Qs, Matrixes or Groups). The currently assigned bus is indi-
cated by its Meter LED lighting.
To set metering to follow the Output faders:
Press the Meter Select switch repeatedly so that the Auto
LED is lit.
Main Output Meters
The three Main output meters in the meter bridge show out-
put levels for the three Main outputs (either in L–C–R or in
L–R+M format).
The 10 LEDs show input levels from bottom to top, according
to the scale shown in Table 14 on page 115.
Metering the Solo Bus
Metering Soloed Channels
Solo bus metering depends on the type of channel being
soloed.
Single Channels
In PFL, AFL, or SIP (solo-in-place) modes, a single soloed chan-
nel is metered in the same way as if the channel were targeted
on the ACS.
