METER AND MONITOR SECTION

METER SELECT SWITCH

This switch is used to select the signal to be monitored

by the Peak Level Meters

Stereo Position:

The level of the signal output through the ST OUT

jacks is indicated. The meter on the far left shows

the level of the Left channel of the stereo signal, while

the second meter from the left shows the level of the

Right channel. Setting to this position during ping-

ponging or mixdown operations enables easy reading

of the recording level.

4 TRK Position:

Set the switch in this position to display the level of

each track. Starting from the far left, each meter cor-

responds to tracks 1–-4. During playback, the play-

back level is displayed; during recording, the record-

ing level is displayed. Setting the switch to this posi-

tion during overdubbing enables easy reading of the

recording level.

PEAK LEVEL METERS

There are 14 LED indicators in each meter which show

a range from - 20dB to +6dB. During recording, setting

levels high (but below the point where the recording

becomes distorted) will ensure the greatest dynamic

range with the lowest possible noise. An ideal point is

when the LED indicators for 0dB and above flash occa-

sionally.

During stereo signal level indication, the actual specified

output from the ST OUT jacks is - 10dB (into a 50K

ohm load) when the LED indicators start to flash at 0dB.
