Metering Improvements of your plugs

[Svama]

Hi Vojtech,

especially for your dynamics plugin it would be great to have some more steps beside the visual metering. Your first number is 10, but I think mostly you are using a computation between 1-6db. These numbers would be very interesting to see at the side of the metering and the distance should grow with err numbers, so you have more visual control for the subtle movements. Take the stock pro Tools compressor as an example for this feature.

Thanks and greets

Hi Svama,

I'm a little lost here , perhaps a screenshot?

Screenshot. The metering is much more accurate then yours

I did wonder too, but it looks like Svama is suggesting a (semi-?) logarithmic display so that more height is used for the levels as they approach 0 dB, making it easier to see the levels. Currently the meters have a linear dB scale, so 0 to -10 uses the same vertical space as -70 to -80:

Thanks darkstar, you nailed it.

Aaaaha, well, sorry, but it won't happen, the meters are generally tunes to be as general as possible. Sometimes it is -40..0dB, sometimes -80..0dB it depends, but all is logarithmic as it just makes it easier to understand. I don't even think it makes sense to worry about each dB, use your ears, we are making music!!
