Meter Settings Pane

• To open the Meter Settings pane, click Configure Meter Settings on the Master tab or Configure Loudness Settings on the Loudness tab.

In the Loudness Settings section, the following parameters are available:

Save Preset/Remove Preset

Allows you to create, load, and remove loudness presets.

Momentary Max

Allows you to specify a reference value and a tolerance value for the maximum momentary loudness. If higher values are detected, the clipping indicator in the loudness meter turns red.

Short-Term

Allows you to specify a reference value and a tolerance value for the short-term loudness. If higher values are detected, the clipping indicator in the loudness meter turns red.

Integrated

Allows you to specify a reference value and a tolerance value for the integrated loudness. If higher values are detected, the clipping indicator in the loudness meter turns red.

True Peak

Allows you to specify a reference value and a tolerance value for the true peak level. If higher values are detected, the clipping indicator in the loudness meter turns red.

Switch between LU and LUFS

Allows you to switch the meter scale between LUFS (absolute values) and LU (relative values).

Switch between EBU +9 Scale and EBU +18 Scale

Allows you to switch the meter between the EBU +9 scale and the EBU +18 scale.

Reset on Start

Activate this option to reset all values on playback start.

In the RMS Settings section, the following parameters are available:

AES 17

Activates the AES17 standard that adds an offset of 3 dB to the RMS value.

Resolution

Allows you to set the length of audio that is measured and averaged between 1 ms and 1000 ms. Lowering the resolution raises the influence of short passages of loud/weak audio on the RMS value and vice versa.
