The Meters tab
The Meters tab (Figure 9-22) serves as a
comprehensive meter bridge for all inputs, outputs
and mix busses in the Track16. This tab gives you a
“bird’s-eye” view of all signal activity in the
Track16; it is ideal for confirming your signal
routing programming and for troubleshooting.
Figure 9-22: The Meters tab.
Channel meter display
The channel meter display (Figure 9-22) provides a
long-throw meter for the input or output that
currently has the focus in the Input/Output tabs.
Bus activity LEDs (inputs only)
The Bus activity LEDs (Figure 9-22) are present
only for inputs. See “Input meter and bus activity
LEDs” on page 67.
Pre/post processing switch
The pre/post processing switch (Figure 9-22) affects
all input meters (and the meter in the channel
meter display above the tab, if this area is
displaying an input meter). Click Pre to view levels
before any input channel processing besides trim;
click Post to view levels after all channel processing
(EQ, compression, M/S decoding, L/R swap, etc.)
The Reverb tab
The Reverb tab (Figure 9-23) provides access to the
Track16’s single, global reverb processor, which
provides high-fidelity reverberation and graphic
control over its parameters.
Figure 9-23: The Reverb tab.
Enabling reverb
Use the enable/disable button (Figure 9-23) to turn
the reverb processor on or off. Since reverb uses
considerable DSP resources, it is best to leave it off
when you are not using it.
