Metering
The key to successful DN530 operation is to know when signals are above or below
threshold. This is especially true if the accent feature is used with low range settings or
with no gating action at all. This style of metering provides an intuitive moving LED
indication that ramps up and down as the signal level moves around the threshold
point.
The metering comprises the following LEDs:
Label Colour Function
CLIP Red Clip LED for showing when the signal is being clipped.
Clip LED threshold is +21dBu.
ACC Blue Accent LED for showing when the ACCENT control is
applying positive signal gain.
THR Green Over threshold LED for showing when the signal has
gone over threshold.
HLD Yellow Hold LED for showing when the HOLD control is
delaying gate closure.
REL Orange Release LED for showing when the RELEASE control
is delaying gate closure.
SHUT Red Shut LED for showing when the gate is closed to the
level set by the RANGE control.
