The main level meters in Normal mode, and the gain reduction meter in both
Normal and Zoom modes, are linear (level differences between LED segments
is the same). In PK-RMS and K-20 Zoom modes however, the main level
meters use two different linear ranges for increased accuracy.
The ranges and response for each meter type and scale is detailed below.
PK-RMS
In Normal mode, the meter range is –60 dB to 0 dB with a linear response of
0.5 dB per segment. In Zoom mode, the range is –18 dB to 0 dB with two dif-
ferent linear responses: 0.2 dB per segment from –18 to –6 dB, and 0.1 dB
per segment from –6 to 0 dB.
K-20
In Normal mode, the meter range is –40 dB to 20 dB with a linear response
of 0.5 dB per segment. In Zoom mode, the range is –8 dB to 20 dB with two
different linear responses: 0.2 dB per segment from –8 to 15 dB, and 0.1 dB
per segment from 15 dB to 20 dB.
K-14
In Normal mode, the meter range is –46 dB to 14 dB with a linear response
of 0.5 dB per segment. In Zoom mode, the range is –10 dB to 14 dB, with lin-
ear response of 0.2 dB per segment.
K-12
In Normal mode, the meter range is –48 dB to 12 dB with a linear response
of 0.5 dB per segment. In Zoom mode, the range is –12 dB to 12 dB, with lin-
ear response of 0.2 dB per segment.
