Using Blackmagic Audio Monitor

Using the Control Panel

Blackmagic Audio Monitor's control panel provides fast access to critical functions and status.

LCD

The built in color LCD features a text overlay that displays your selected input, the video format if SDI is
connected, selected audio channels, and the volume level for your speakers or headphones. The LCD will
also display the incoming video signal if SDI video is connected and selected. Otherwise a music icon will
be displayed.
The following information is displayed for the selected input:
SDI input - SDI, video format, selected audio channels.
Balanced AES/EBU XLR input - AES/EBU, selected audio channels.
Balanced XLR analog inputs - ANALOG, selected audio channels.
Unbalanced RCA analog inputs - HiFi, selected audio channels.

Audio Level Meters

Blackmagic Audio Monitor's VU meter features two banks of green, orange and red LEDs that show the
strength of your audio levels. If all LEDs are lit, your audio levels are too high and are clipping. To ensure
your audio is at the highest quality, adjust the output levels on your audio equipment so Blackmagic Audio
Monitor's VU meter peaks at the 0dB indicator on the control panel. If your audio peaks beyond the 0dB
indicator there is a high risk of sound distortion.
