39. PHONES Knob
This controls the volume at the phones output, from 
off to maximum gain.
WARNING: The headphone amp is loud, and 
can cause permanent hearing damage. Even 
intermediate levels may be painfully loud 
with some headphones. BE CAREFUL! Always turn this 
control all the way down before connecting headphones, 
or pressing a solo switch [34], or doing anything new 
that may affect the headphone volume. Then turn it up 
slowly as you listen carefully.
40. LEFT/RIGHT Level Meters
These peak meters are made up of two columns of 
twelve LEDs, with three colors to indicate different 
ranges of signal level, traffi c light style. They range from 
–30 at the bottom, to 0 in the middle, to +20 (CLIP) at 
the top.
If no source [35, 36] is selected in the control room/
phones, and no channels are in solo, the meters won’t do 
anything. To display signal levels, select one or more of 
the sources. For example, press main mix [35] to show 
the main mix level in the meters. While the listening 
levels are controlled by the control room and phones 
knobs, the meters indicate the source mix before these 
knobs, giving you the real facts at all times, even if 
you’re not listening at all.
When a channel is soloed, the left meter shows no 
reading, and the right meter shows the level of that 
channel’s signal level, pre-fader. The right meter's 0 dB 
LED is labeled "level set" to show where the level should 
be when adjusting a channel’s gain [21] in the solo 
mode (as described in “Set the Levels” on page 3).
When 0 dBu (0.775 V) is at the main mix outputs, it 
shows as 0 dB on the meters.
You can get a good mix with peaks fl ashing anywhere 
between –20 and +10 dB on the meters. Most amplifi ers 
clip at about +10 dBu, and some recorders aren’t so 
forgiving either. For best real-world results, try to keep 
your peaks between “0” and “+6.” Remember, audio  
meters are just tools to help assure you that your levels 
are “in the ballpark.” You don’t have to stare at them 
(unless you want to).
41. RUDE SOLO Light
This large LED fl ashes when one or more channel solo 
switches are engaged [34]. This acts as a reminder that 
what you hear in the control room and headphones is 
the soloed channel(s). If you forget you’re in solo mode, 
you can easily be tricked into thinking that something 
is wrong with your mixer. Hence, the rude solo light. 
Please forgive its rudeness, it is only trying to help, and 
wants to be your friend.
