Basic Operation<br />

Using Digital Signals<br />

Several programs in the <strong>480L</strong> allow you to increase the<br />

level of the digital signal beyond dBFS. For example, if<br />

the Parametric EQ program is loaded, and a low shelf<br />

filter is boosted +6dB at 250Hz, the potential headroom<br />

to dBFS is reduced accordingly. (See the figure below.)<br />

If the audio material fed through this program contains<br />

a large amount of energy in the region of the shelf<br />

boost, an overload in the digital domain may occur.<br />

When this happens, the last segments of the LARC<br />

display will illuminate.<br />

Many programs, such as Parametric EQ, have a master<br />

level control which can offset the overall gain to<br />

prevent this situation. If you consistently encounter<br />

such situations, contact <strong>Lexicon</strong> Customer Service.<br />
