Hello

Can I find a reference to the meanings of the ST front panel graphs that aren't labeled?

Specifically, referring to the two sets of horizontal VU - Above Noise Gate, and Below the Bass Boost indicators...

The top set of graphs -- I see this graph sometimes go Red. Is that a problem?

And, the bottom graph - can I assume this is "final output" VU?

And, in the multiband limiter section, I occasionally see vertical black bars dropping from the top. Is this OK? Is is indicating that I have too much or too little of something?

I'm running with slight tweaks to Bojcha's B-Town settings for reference.

Top 2 bars: Input level. Red means (potentially) clipped input. Not necessarily a problem, you often cannot fix it anyway (for example if you have a clipped CD or MP3 file).

Bottom 2 bars: Output level.

Black bars from top means that multiband clipping is active. This makes the sound smoother - if it's used too much though it might remove punch and cause the sound to be more 'noisy' (distortion-like).
