Peak-level limiting
The
Max SPL
or
Bass limit
parameter allows you to set up
peak-level limiting for bass signals, and the setting applies to all
the discrete digital DSP presets.
If your loudspeaker layout includes one or more subwoofers the
parameter is named
Max SPL
, and it sets the peak-level limit for
the LFE channel.
If your loudspeaker layout contains no subwoofer the parameter
is named
Bass limit
, and it sets the peak-level limit of the bass
signal added to the main loudspeakers. For loudspeaker layouts
using Meridian DSP loudspeakers as the main left and right, or
centre speakers, the
Bass limit
value is fixed at -11dBFS and
you cannot adjust it.
