Behringer EPQ2000 - Limit light?

Hi all

 

Just been testing the EPQ2000. Does anyone know how the limit switch / light is supposed to work? There's next to nothing about it in the manual.

 

I switched it on on my amp and drove it up to 100% distortion but the limit lights didn't come on. Is that right?

 

Regards

with the limit switch engaged and each channel to maximum, I don't believe I have ever hit the limit lights in 7 years. at least I have not seen it lit. but then I don't push inputs heavily.

IOW if the limit switch is on, the amp is limited to avoid it being overdriven? Makes sense.

 

To me, it would have made more sense to call the Blue LEDs "Clip" or similar. Calling them "Limit" implies that the limiter is coming in, which it only does if the limit switch is ON and then you don't see the Limit LEDs light.

 

Bit arse about face if you ask me, but then it is a Behringer product :)

It's almost as if the lights are meant to tell you you need to switch the limier on or something.

Not the way I'd prefer it done either, but I can at least see a small shred of logic in it.
