About the OL indicators and meters
The audio levels of this unit can be checked using
the OL indicators in the input section and the meters
on the Home Screen.
The meters allow the signal levels to be checked,
and they can also be used to conrm whether signals
are being input into the unit. For example, if the
input meters are moving a signal is being input into
the unit even if you cannot hear anything when you
are monitoring.
As shown below, if a “–” appears at the top of a
meter, the level is too high (when a “–” appears, it
will stay on screen for a while before automatically
disappearing). If the level is too high and a “–”
appears, the sound might be distorted, so lower the
level until a “–” stops appearing.
If an OL indicator lights, the signal from the input
source could be too loud or the LEVEL knob too high.
If the OL indicator lights even if the LEVEL knob is set
at 2–3 o’clock or less, the input signal is too high, so
turn down the volume on the input source.

Input meters (A, B)

sound sources.
