This mastering quality meter has ballistics
and overload indication same as Sony 1630
plus additional very useful peakcounter
and phase meter.
normal "peak mode" shown only:
(there are two more modes:
"peak+VU" and "calibration")
Overload counter counts every time the "over" l.e.d. is lit. The
counter counts up to 10. "E" reading means 10 or more. The counter
can be cleared by "clear" button.
"Over" l.e.d. shows true digital overload (after 3 subsequent samples
exceed max. range).
The L and R bargraph indicates peak value of the signal. The meter
ballistics are carefully managed by internal software to naturally
represent incoming sound.
The highest lit l.e.d. (including "over" l.e.d.) can be held for 1 sec.,
memorized or immediately turned off. These functions are controlled
by switch A. Memorized segment can be cleared by "clear" button.

In the "phase" mode it serves as a phase correlation meter. In the

The front panel finish is black anodized aluminium. The unit is powered through an
external international (100-240 VAC) power adaptor (included). Another type external
+5V regulated power supply (1.5 Amp per meter) can also be used. DDD-603 is
portable, can be placed ontop of a console bridge, mounted into console or in a 19" rack
(w/ optional hardware). Both digital input and digital throughput are provided on two
XLR connectors mounted in the back. The meter accepts AES/EBU or SPDIF inputs.
An RCA to XLR adaptor is required for SPDIF signals.
