Meters
The Channel Strip Meter display features dual 32-segment LED bar graphs for each channel, and can display pre- or post-fader lev-
els depending on the D-Command Meter Preferences setting. In Custom Fader mode, these meter displays can show plug-in input
and output meters, gain reduction meters for dynamics plug-ins, and other parameters. The top LED is red and indicates clipping
on the corresponding channel or parameter.
The Output Meter display includes eight 32-segment LED bar graphs with clip indication for displaying output levels or the level
of the track focused in the Focus Channel Strip, depending on the D-Command Meter Preferences setting.
For details on setting meter preferences, see “Meter Preferences” on page 27.
