Chapter 3 – Controls and Interface
3.1 Global Limiter Section
This section consists of controls that globally affect all of the L3-16’s bands.
Threshold/Input Meter
-Range -30dB to 0dB
-Default 0dB
Threshold is probably the most important control of the L3-16, as it sets the global limiting threshold as the reference threshold for all 16 bands. Once set, any signal that goes above the threshold is limited, and gain is automatically made up by the same factor; i.e., if Threshold is set to -6dB, then automatic makeup gain will accordingly be 6dB.
