Displays the inherited label of the assigned channel or of the monitored

OVERLOAD: HOLD
Activates the hold function for all overload LEDs in the console. If active,
even overloads in sections that are currently not visible are held. Therefore it
is possible to scroll through the sections and check whether overloads have
occurred.
OVERLOAD: OVER RESET
The overload indicators display clipping of any DSP core output interface.
Since the DSP core holds all audio in floating-point format, basically no clip-
ping can occur within the core. Clipping only occurs when sending a signal
through a 24-bit output interface. Therefore, this indicators show real clipping
somewhere on an output.
If OVERLOAD: HOLD is on, this LED is held as well. Pressing this key will
reset all held overloads.
PEAK: HOLD
Toggles the peak hold function through off, TEMP (temporary hold), and CONT
(continuous hold).
Channels with a continuous peak hold condition will indicate the amount
of dB above clipping level in the generic display area of the Vistonics™
screen.
PEAK: RESET
Pressing this key will reset the peak hold indication, if continuous hold has
been activated with PEAK: HOLD.
