Re: Finally pulled the trigger on a StudioLive 24.4.2
Ah, you're right, I was mis-reading the metering of each channel. I assumed that due to the 2 different metering methods, the screens represented the 2 different reading types. I got this impression because if I fed a signal into a channel and had the channel at unity, and the mains at unity, when the channel reads around 0 (mid-point of the channel meter) I would get to 0db on the mains output. Now, since 0db on the mains is +- 5dB, it's hard to have a true comparison.
Dick, your argument that the meter on the board is only to tell you if you are in trouble is pretty weak. If that's the case, why not just put a piece of tape over everything except the clip light? Actually, on the baby 16.0.2, they did eliminate the main metering section. Reality is, the decision that Presonus made in the range of that meter pretty much sucks. They could have easily programmed the resolution to be more sensitive in the normal operating range.
But, on a positive note, if you attach your computer, the metering on there works as you'd expect. Go figure.
