Metering - Appearance
On this page you can assign colors to level meter values to quickly identify what levels are reached. You can adjust the colors for the channel meter or the master meter. For the master meter you can only make changes for the Digital Scale scaling mode. Changes take effect when you click Apply or OK.
To adjust the levels and colors, activate the channel meter or master meter option and proceed as follows:
To specify the level for a color change, double-click a handle to the right of the meter scale and enter the level (dB) value. Note that for dB values less than 0, you must add a minus sign before the entered number. You can also click a handle and drag it to a specific level. Press Shift for more accurate positioning. Alternatively, you can nudge with the Up Arrow/Down Arrow keys. Press Shift for faster positioning.
To assign a color, click the upper or lower part of a handle, and use the color selector pane to select a color. Selecting the same color for the upper and lower part of the handle results in a meter that changes its colors gradually, while different colors indicate level changes even more precisely.
To add more color handles, click Add, or Alt-click at a level position to the right of the meter scale. Each new handle is automatically associated with a default color.
To remove a handle, select the handle and click Remove, or Ctrl/Cmd-click the handle.
