A full set of Program Meters is installed above the Master Faders and Center Section.
The Program Meters can be fed from the following points:
•
Stereo Program Grand Master outputs
•
Surround Program Master outputs
•
Solo Bus
•
Lt Rt Fold Down Matrix outputs
The Program Meters are organized as follows:
•
LEFT and RIGHT (SOLO)
•
CENTER
•
LFE
•
LEFT and RIGHT SURROUND
•
LEFT and RIGHT (Lt Rt)
Under normal circumstances, the Program Meters display the level of the Stereo/Surround
Program Master outputs.
The LEFT and RIGHT (SOLO) meters are used for stereo only applications.
When a PFL or AFL SOLO is engaged, the LEFT and RIGHT (SOLO) meters display the
output of the Solo Bus.
The LEFT and RIGHT (Lt Rt) meters display the output of the A/B Program Master. When
the output of the Lt Rt Fold Down Matrix is engaged, the LEFT and RIGHT (Lt Rt) meters
display the Left Total and Right Total output of the matrix.
A -10 dB attenuator can be inserted before the Program Meters (MAIN VU 0=+10) for
better resolution of high-level signals.
The ballistics of the Program Meters can be changed from VU to peak hold (MAIN VU
PEAK).
