Preface

The Tektronix 764 Digital Audio Monitor shown in Figure 1 is a tool
for monitoring the signal levels and stereo phase of digitally-encoded
(AES/EBU and IEC 958 “consumer use”) audio in a production
environment. The instrument can simultaneously display the levels
of two two-channel inputs, and the stereo phase relationship of any
two of the four input channels. It can also display numerical data
about the audio program material as well as “Channel Status” and
“User Data” information encoded in the digital audio signal.

Through on-screen menus and front-panel controls, the user may
configure the response dynamics (ballistics), reference levels, offset,
and scale of the meters to suit the monitoring needs of the particular
installation or situation. The user may also choose among several
types of stereo phase display.
