The yellow segment indicates that limiting is being applied to the output channel. It is important to understand how the
meters work and what they are displaying. The Output Meters are displayed as „dB to Limiter Threshold” or „dB to D/
A clip”. In other words, these meters will display the headroom between the output level and the limiter threshold or
clip threshold of the D/A converter. When viewed in conjunction with the Gain Reduction meters, this provides a com-
plete display of level and headroom before and after limiting has been engaged to allow system levels to be optimized.
This also means that the output metering will be displayed differently depending on the limiter threshold setting. The
red segments indicates clipping of the output signal and should be avoided by adjusting the Output Level setting of the
output channel.
5.3 Output Gain Reduction Meters
Each output channel has a four-segment gain reduction meter that shows the effect of the output channel Limiter on
output signal; from -3dB to -12dB. Output limiting can be bypassed by entering Edit mode, selecting Output Channel
Limiter and selecting the Bypass parameter.
5.4 Output Channel Mute Buttons
Each output channel has a lighted Mute button . Pressing the Mute button turns off the output of that channel.
The button lights red as an alert. Press the Mute button again to restore the output channel’s signal.
5.5 Output Channel Function Indicators
Each output channel has a four-segment function display for informational purposes only. For any given configuration
possible with the DSP 600, an output channel may be identified as a sub, low, low/mid, mid, mid/hi, hi or full range
output. One or two adjacent LED’s are displayed to indicate all possible output bandpasses. (Full range is indicated by
all lit LED’s.)
