Hi all,  
what are the LV1 meters in the Faders and in the input section? Are they RMS, VU or some Peakprogramm? The scale of the Fader is infinity to +10. Does the meter in the fader ever go beyond 0, or is 0 the limit for the meter? So kind of dBFullscale? In the inputsection the meter does not have a scale at all. But there are color changes. What value do these indicate?  
Thanks for clearing this. Either the manual was not helpful here or I simply did not find it.
