BS.1770 meter, but this is likely to cause program material with an usually low

Presets with the loudness controller off will produce wider source-to-
source loudness variation (as indicated on the L
than presets with the loudness controller on. When the loudness control-
ler is off, the five-band structure will control loudness better than the
two-band structure. When the loudness controller is on, both structures
have comparable loudness control.
If you chose an appropriate D
6300's limiting meters should rarely indicate any gain reduction.

To Create or Save a User Preset

Once you have edited a preset, you can save it as a user preset. The 6300 can
store more than 100 user presets, limited only by available memory.
The 6300 will offer to save any edited, unsaved preset when the main screen is
visible. To save a preset:
A) Press the ESC button repeatedly until you see the main screen, which shows
the current time and the preset presently active.
If there is an unsaved preset active, the rightmost button will be labeled
