Apollo Software Manual Chapter 3: Console Application 40
Input Level Scale
The numerical labels represent digital signal levels. “0” represents 0 dBFS (digital full
scale, the maximum level before undesirable A/D clipping). If the level at the Apollo in-
put exceeds 0 dBFS, the meter’s clip indicator illuminates (reduce the preamp gain and/
or output level of the device feeding the input if this occurs).
These meters also have a peak hold feature, which “holds” signal peak values for a
specified period of time. The clip and peak hold times can be adjusted in the Console
Settings Panel.
Input Label
The name of the Console input is displayed beneath the channel’s fader and meter.
