Limiter Lights blinking on sub outs

No matter what I do, the limit lights keep blinking on the sub outs, even though I have the limiter turned off. The interesting thing is, it even blinks when I have the sub out set to -8.0 dB. All levels are at unity on my mixer, and I am positive that I am not sending a hot or distorted signal. Please help!

P.S. I am using two JBL PRX518 subwoofers with the built-in preset.

    Randomly or rhythmic?
    What about where you turn down the source?
    Wait! Limiters flashing on the sub, or the PX sub output meters?

  • The limit lights located on the DBX unit blink rhythmically, and are present unless I turn the bass output on the DBX waaaay down (-8.0 dB). I think my unit might be bad because every time I turn it off, it erases all of my profiles. (Unless there is an extra step I am not aware of that is required to hard-store my profiles?) The sub woofers themselves sound fine, no clipping or limiting on the units themselves.

    When storing a preset you need to press the \"STORE\" button 3 times...this also requires you to answer 3 questions...

    Name the preset

    Where do you want to put the preset

    Are you SURE you want to replace the preset in this location ?

    As for the other question... are you using the limiters or compressors? Those could cause the lights to indicate activity...
