B.Groupe d'indicateurs (un par canal)

Indicateur thermique : la diode rouge s'allume en cas de température excessive.

Indicateur Clip : la diode rouge s'allume lorsque le seuil de distorsion des sons toléré est atteint.

Indicateur –10 : la diode verte clignote lorsque le signal de sortie dépasse -10 dB sous écrêtage.

Indicateur –20 : la diode verte clignote lorsque le signal de sortie dépasse –20 dB sous écrêtage.

Indicateur Signal : la diode verte clignote en présence d'un signal de niveau très faible à l'entrée. Peut être util- isé pour les pannes sur les câbles.
