Operating display – EBU R128 Meter 

 

 

The meter style (ITU BS.1770-x / ATSC / EBU etc.) is defined by the settings of: 
AUDIO PROCESOR > Level Magic > Loudness Mode (example is for EBU R12().  
The above menu serves as a display of measurement values and offers the metering control buttons 
(reset & pause / continue). 
<ESC> returns to the main operating display. 

 
Operating display – Audio Processor 

 

 

<ESC> returns to the operating display.  
This menu gives access to tweak the various function blocks. The active <Shift>       button indicates that 
there is another page (2/2): 

 

 

 
The example below explains how to set parameters via the X*AP. E.g. if you press <Input> 
all parameters for the input function block will be accessible: 

 

 

Here you are at the input      section of the first program. The <Shift>       button  
again toggles between two pages and gains access to the remaining parameters:
