Bit Meter Settings

In the Bit Meter Settings dialog, you can adjust the behavior and display of the Bit Meter.

  • To open the Bit Meter Settings dialog, open the Bit Meter window, and select Functions > Settings.

Colors

You can adjust the colors of the meter segments, grids, background, etc. by clicking the corresponding color buttons.

Bit Hold Time

Determines for how long peak values are held by the outer meters.

Bit Display

Determines how the bits are displayed. In Intuitive Mode (Proportional to Signal Level), the absolute value of the signal is shown. The bar graph goes higher with higher signal levels, similar to a common level meter.

In True Mode (Signed Samples), the meter shows the direct mapping of the bits. However, because the actual values may be negative, there is no intuitive relationship with the level. This mode is useful if you want to check the full range, because all bits are displayed, regardless of the audio signal level.
