RMS
RMS (Root Mean Square) is a software-based implementation of an analog
style level meter. The RMS meter displays the average level calculated over a
short window of time. The result is a meter that is appropriate if you are inter-
ested in tracking the overall loudness.
RMS + Peak
This is a combined RMS and Peak meter. This meter displays a lower bar rep-
resenting the average level (RMS) and a higher bar representing peak level.
There is also a moving line above the bar representing the most recent peak
level or peak hold.
Peak Hold
By default, the meters will temporarily hold the peak values of your incoming
audio.
Clipping
Above the meter is a red LED that serves as a clipping indicator. If the level
exceeds 0 dB at any point, this LED will light up and remain lit until you double-
click anywhere on the LED itself.
