Lake LM Series Operation Manual Rev 1.3.5
Module input mutes are only available in Contour Mode; Module input mutes are not applicable in Mesa
Mode. The quantity and position of the output mute buttons changes as shown in Figure 6-4 depending on
whether the device is configured in Contour Mode (six outputs) or Mesa Mode (four outputs).
Please refer to the Lake Controller Operation Manual for details of Module mute controls via the software.
6.8.2 Clip Indication
The dedicated 5-segment metering LEDs (Figure 6-4 ) display Module input and output clip or pre-clip
conditions. Additionally, the faults and warnings LED described in section 6.7.2 provides clip warnings for
input mutes, or GPIO protective mutes, along with confirmation text on the LCD screen.
Clipping is monitored at the following positions in the signal chain:
▸
Analog Inputs: If the input signal exceeds 12 dBu or +26 dBu (according to analog sensitivity
setting), a clip indication will be given. This does not apply if digital inputs are selected.
▸
Module Inputs: If the signal level at this point e25 dBu, a clip indication will be given.
▸
Module Outputs: If the signal level at this point e21 dBu, a clip indication will be given.
6.9 Meter Mode
6.9.1 Home View (Contour Mode)
The default view when powering on an LM Series device device configured in Contour Mode is the Meter
Mode > Home View as shown in Figure 6-7.
Figure 6-7: Meter Mode > Home View
Home View (Contour Mode) provides a summary of Module I/O gain level and limiter gain reduction, along
with frame, module and channel labeling information.
