Hi Jonathan

Yes, the crossbar router is part of ffado-mixer for the Saffire Pro24.

But I see no "VU button" in the crossbar router. I only see a button 
labeled "Switch peak meters". When I click on this button, nothing 
happens, and jackd does not stop. I do not see any peakmeters in 
ffado-mixer. If this makes reference to the LEDs on the Saffire Pro24, 
then it has no effect on these LEDs.

Can someone tell me what is supposed to be the effect of this button? 
Could this button be an old trick to bypass the bug that existed with 
these LEDs some time ago (ticket #347 solved by r2098)?

As far as I understand, ticket #282 may be closed.
