Meters
The Meters screen lets you view signal activity for the inputs, mixes and FX. Indicators below the meters show Gate, Compressor and Limiter gain reduction activity. These light red when switched IN or grey when switched out.
Input Meter pages provide an option at the top to select the metering point source within the channel signal path. This does not affect the fader strip meters.
User Meter pages let you assign up to 16 meters in any combination. 4 User pages can be named and assigned.
RTA
An RTA (real time analyser) is built into iLive. This provides a real time meter display across 1/3rd octave frequency bands, useful for helping you check response and identify problem frequencies while testing the PA or ringing out monitors on stage.
Access the RTA using the Surface Status or Meters screen or Editor RTA toolbar button.
RTA source
The RTA always follows the signal on the PAFL mix bus.
RTA display
The RTA response is displayed in stereo within the Surface TouchScreen or Editor RTA window. In GEQ on Faders mode the RTA is presented on the strip meters above the faders for each frequency band.
RTA peak display
The dominant frequency of the PAFL'd signal is displayed as a moving red bar on the screen or top red strip LED indicator in GEQ on Faders mode.
There is an option to turn off the peak frequency display. This is in the SURFACE / Preferences screen or Editor Options menu.
