Title: VVR - What are folks calling it
Post by: sdp1234 on January 01, 2011, 07:48:40 pm

Any good ideas for labeling my VVR on the front panel?  VVR is too generic and I already have a master volume?

I don't know about "good ideas" but there's a lot that could be used like simple plain old watts, output, master, level, power, voltage, total. Then you could put any of them together - master output, output master, power volume, power output, power master, master power, power total, watts level, power level, master level, master voltage, voltage level, voltage power, total power, etc.

Since I use Dana Hall's VVR, I call mine "VVR".  That has fewer syllables then master volume does.

Having said that, I like the "B+" label also.

With respect, Tubenit

and if it's range was to be influenced by the listener (wife, kids, neighbors, bandmates working on song) it may not go much past 1.  :laugh:
