8. EDIT Button
Pressing this button will enter Edit mode. Once in Edit mode, the UP/DOWN buttons and SELECT wheel can be used
to select the desired on-screen processing module for editing or copying and pasting. Pressing and holding this button
when in a processing module’s edit menu will jump between the selected column’s processing edit menus, for fast
in-menu navigation of like processing modules. For more information on using Edit mode, see ‘Editing Processing
Module Parameters (Edit Mode)’ on page 43.
9. PRESET RECALL & STORE Buttons
These buttons are used to store and recall presets. For more information on managing presets, see ‘Managing
Presets’ on page 45.
10. MIX/ROUTE Meters & CLIP Indicators
These 6-segment LED meters
display the input signal level
strength and available headroom,
and range from SIG (signal present)
to 0 (dBFS). These meters monitor
the signal level at the 1/2/3 bus
points immediately after the input
Mixers/Routers (see ‘DSP Block
Diagram’ on page 118 to see a
diagram of the signal flow). They will
light when the signal level is greater
than or equal to the values shown in
the table to the right.

The LEDs located at the top of the Mix/Route meters are clip indicators. When these LEDs light, it indicates that the
VENU360’s inputs are being overdriven – either at the physical XLR input or in the input Mixers/Routers. These LEDs
feature a peak hold function, so they will remain lit for a short period of time after the signal level drops back below
the clip point. The dbx Type IV™ conversion system built into the VENU360 will clamp down on excessively loud input
signals to prevent the A/D converters from clipping. If these LEDs light consistently, check to see if any dramatic gains
are being applied in the VENU360’s input Routers/Mixers. If input Router/Mixer gains are not causing the issue, you
may need to change the analog input clip level settings in the Utility menu (see ‘Utility Menu’ on page 92 for more
information) or lower the output signal level from the sending device.
11. OUTPUT Meters & LIMITER THRESHOLD Indicators
These 6-segment LED meters display the output signal level strength and available headroom and range from SIG
(signal present) to 0 (dBFS). These meters monitor the signal level post the output processing and MUTE buttons and
before the D/A converters. They will light when the signal level is greater than or equal to the values shown in the
following table.
