These choices affect the scaling and ballistics of the meters.
0 on each scale is defined differently for each type of meter relative to 0dBFS. 0dBFS will relate to absolute values
when converted to or from analogue at the I/O stages depending on what reference level has been set in hardware on
the system. In a standard, unmodified system, 0dBFS equates to an Input/Output level of +22dBU (+18dBm). Com-
mon alternative reference levels for 0dBFS are +18dBU (+14dBm) and +12 dBU (+8dBm). Check to see what your
standard is using external analogue meters. In all cases, the value given below represents the amount of digital
headroom left in the system when the meters are registering 0. The 0 levels for each different type of meter in
Prodigy (relative to 0dBFS) are:
