I reckon ALC meters are often too sluggish. TS830, for example: often
commented that it's cleaner with the processor on - actually, it's not, but
without clipping the ALC meter doesn't register short speech peaks until they
are grossly overdriving things. Set up the the mic level with a really loud
long whistle, then talk normally and the ALC meter doesn't twitch at all but
the 'scope and analyser say you are hitting peak power.
