Level Meters
Full scale samples for OVR. Number
of consecutive samples to trigger an
over detection (1 to 10).
Peak Hold Time. Hold time of the
peak value. Adjustable from 0.1 up to
9.9 s.
RMS +3 dB. Shifts the RMS value by
+3 dB, so that full scale level is
identical for Peak and RMS at 0 dBFS.
Mixer Views
FX Send follows highest Submix.
Locks the FX Send knob to the
channel fader. As TotalMix supports
multiple routings
definition is needed which fader (only
one is visible) is the one that FX Send
will follow. This is always the one with
the highest fader position, means the
highest gain.
Center Balance/Pan when changing
When
Mono/Stereo.
stereo channel into two mono channels
the pan-pots are set fully left and right.
This option will set them to center
instead.
Disable double click fader action.
Prevents unintentional gain settings,
for example when using sensitive
touchpads.
Dynamic Meters
Compressor/Expander. Activates the display of the Compressor/Expander's gain reduc-
tion as thin blue line in the level meters of the corresponding channel.
Include Gain setting. The currently set fixed amplification value (by the Gain knob) is in-
cluded in the display. This can lead to positive values, with the display limited to +6 dB. In
case the option Compressor/Expander is deactivated this option is also not available, there-
fore grayed out.
Auto Level. Activates the display of the variable amplification of the Auto Leveler. As Auto
Level can both amplify and attenuate the audio signal, depending on its configuration, the
display can show negative (typical gain reduction) as well as positive (above 0 dB, amplifi-
cation) values.
Snapshots
Do not load Main volume/balance. The values stored in the Snapshot are not loaded for
the Main Out, so the current setting is not changed.
Device Handling
Always init DSP devices with TotalMix FX settings. Used to suppress the mismatch
message after using the unit stand-alone. Settings in the unit are lost.
Graphics
Use D2D (Change requires restart). Default on. Can be deactivated to use a compatible
but CPU-taxing graphics mode, in case graphics problems show up.
