Monitoring audio levels
You can monitor the audio levels of your input sources through VU meters by
setting the DIP switch setting accordingly on the Matrox MicroQuad unit (see
“Setting the Matrox MicroQuad DIP switches”
on page
15
) or in the Matrox
MicroQuad Remote Control Panel (see
“Using the Matrox MicroQuad Remote
Control Panel”
on page
17
).
Vertical colored bars indicate the input level. As the audio source is played, the
color of the input level is green at or below -18 dBFS, yellow between -17 to
-9 dBFS, and red above -8 dBFS. Gray boxes indicate that no audio is present. If
needed, adjust the audio level on your input source device to keep the average
input level between -60 and -18 dBFS. To select the audio input pair that you
would like to monitor, see
“Using the Matrox MicroQuad Remote Control Panel”
on page

. By default, input pair 1-2 will be displayed on the VU meters.
