These two modes are disabled when
MixView is running dynamics (so that
MixView graphics display meters
correctly). They are currently for
diagnostics only and cannot be ac-
cessed during normal operation.

The Top button in the middle of the panel cycles through the following Meter Display modes:
Input level disabled meter mode is offered so that the user can easily identify gain reduction activity on all
dynamics channels at a glance, without being distracted by input level metering.
Output level is calculated as input level offset by gain reduction. Detector level is the same as side chain
level, and is always displayed by horizontal position of GainBall on DSC screen.
Note that detector level is not necessarily the same as input level due to sidechain switching and filtering
options (see diagram below).
The bottom button cycles through LED modes:
Normal - operating mode
Vegas - all LEDs flash in random pattern
All On (press and hold) - all LEDs light at once
