The sound level for each channel (after adjusting input levels) is shown in real 
time.
The markings are relative to 0 dBFS (Full Scale) of the digital signal. For exam-
ple, 12 indicates -12 dBFS. C is the clipping level (0 dBFS).

Channel level meters
Channel names
Displays up to four channel names. If you’re using one stereo channel, 1L and 
1R are shown. If you’re using two stereo channels, 1L, 1R, 2L, and 2R are 
shown.
For monaural project, 1, 2, 3, and 4 are shown according to the number of 
channels.
When the sensitivity setting is too large and clipping occurs the display is 
shown in inverted black and white.
Output assignments
The output assignments show how the audio of each channel is assigned to 
the L/R output channels. L means that the audio is output to the left channel, 
R to the right channel, and LR to both left and right channels. Channels that 
are not shown are not output. From the main screen, you can use the [CUR-
SOR] up/down buttons to select the channel that you want to monitor.
The output is sent to the PHONES jack, line output jacks, and digital output 
connector.
* When Output Sel (p. 75) in the system settings is set to "monitor," the 
line output jacks output sounds as set in the output assignments.
