Adjusts the point at which the level meters will change color from Green to Yellow. This is normally the level
used for alignment. For digital audio in the US, the SMPTE standard is -20dBFS = 0VU = +4dBu.
The European EBU standard is -18dBFS = 0VU. Other Alignment standards can be set using this menu.
■ Headroom End
Adjusts the point at which the level meters will change color from Yellow to Red. There is no ofcial standard
to where this point should occur. This is an arbitrary setting to give visual warning that the program level is
peaking near the 0dBFS point at which there are no more bits and clipping will occur.
