Meter
Metering settings provide the following options for meter bal-
listics, peak, and clip indication.
Ballistics This option lets you choose RMS or Peak ballistics
for the control surface and on-screen meters.
Input Clip Margin and Output Clip Margin These options set the
level, relative to the maximum (full scale) level, at which a clip
is reported on a channel. When a clip is detected, the entire
channel meter turns red.
To set Input or Output clip margin:
Click in the dB Below Max edit box for Input Clip Margin or
1
Output Clip Margin.
Enter a value or drag to change the value and press Enter.
2
The entered value is interpreted as a relative dB value from the
maximum (where "Max" is considered +20 dBVU). For exam-
ple, with the Input Clip Margin set to 6 dB below max (the de-
fault), peak levels within 6 dB of maximum level will trigger a
clip indication
Clip Hold Time and Peak Hold Time These options specify how
long clips and peaks are held. Default is 2 seconds for both
Clip and Peak hold.
Input Safe Switches
The Input Safe Switches let you control three independent
Safe functions: Automation Safe, Solo Safe, and Bank Safe.
Only one of these Safe functions can be viewed and controlled
at a time.
Act as Automation Safes When selected, this option sets the
console Safe switches and on-screen channel Safe buttons to
toggle the Automation Safe status of the corresponding chan-
nel. For more information, see Chapter 21, "Snapshots."
Act as Solo Safes Solo Safe applies only to Input Channels
and FX Returns. When selected, this option sets the Safe
switches to toggle the Solo Safe status of the corresponding
channel. See "Solo Bus Operation" on page 119.
Act as Bank Safes When selected, this option sets the Safe
switches of Input Channels and FX Returns to toggle that
channel's Bank Safe Status. (Bank Safe keeps channels at the
top fader layer, immune to input banking.) For more informa-
tion, see "Bank Safe Mode for Input Safe Switches" on page 44.
Ethernet Control
Ethernet Control settings let you configure ECx Ethernet Con-
trol for remote control of the VENUE system over a wireless
Ethernet network.
For more information, see Chapter 30, "ECx."
