How do I Show Mixer Output Levels on the Level Meters?
If you have not done so already, you first need to set up a free mix in the output
card. Please refer to How Do I Mix Any Input(s) to Any Output(s)? in this chapter
and set up the needed output mix.
To show mixer output levels, certain configurations must be avoided so that
potential internal feedback loops will not exist within the digital mixer. Output levels
cannot be displayed if:
1.
The monitor mix output pair appears as one of the inputs to the output
mixer, or
2.
The output mixer is in Follow Monitor mode.
Analog I/O Cards with the TOSLINK option will not allow the analog outputs to be
routed back to the monitor mixer to be metered. The internal pathways used for
this feature are also used by the TOSLINK Card.
Output free mix channel pairs will appear as sources in the Monitor Mixer
