Notes:

1.The X-over (output) settings are stored / loaded independently (using ‘store / load a X-over’) from the input settings (using ‘store / load input memory’).

2.The output meters show level, in dB’s, from limiter threshold. The input meters show level, in dB’s, from input clip.

3.HPF’s and LPF’s are defined independently on each channel.

4.To get access to the limiter attack and release, select ‘Auto Limiter TC’ No, when designing a X-over

5.To show parametric filters in bandwidth (‘BW’), rather than Q, go into the ‘system sub-menu’, select ‘filter Q or BW’, select BW.
