LH=Left High RH=Right High LM=Left Mid RM=Right Mid LL=Left Low RL=Right Low Note: You may see an "ML" rather than an "LL & "RL" for the subwoofer outputs. This means that a mono subwoofer was selected rather than stereo subs in the System Setup Wizard. Back To Virtual PA 55 Index Previous Page This is the PREV PG (Previous Page) button. [. . . ] These meters show the level of the audio that is driving the input stage of the DriveRack PA. Note: The +20 (red) LEDs at the top of the LED meters are your clip indicators. Back To Virtual PA 73 Index Limiter Threshold LEDs These are the OUTPUT LIMITER THRESHOLD indicators. They give you a visual indication when the output limiters are engaged. Note: These LEDs do not indicate clipping. The +20 (red) LEDs at the top of the meters are the clip indicators. Back To Virtual PA 74 Index Output Meters These are the OUTPUT METERS measured using the dBu scale. These meters show the level of the audio that is driving the output stage of the DriveRack PA. Note: The two far left meters correlate to the "Low" outputs, the two in the middle are for the "Mid" outputs & the two on the right are for the "High" outputs. [. . . ]
