System information
Monitoring bus levels with VU/PPM meters
When the VU Meters control region is visible, you can display volume unit (VU) and peak program (PPM)
meters to help you determine the perceived loudness of your audio signal (peak program meters provide
faster response times to volume increases than VU meters).
To show or hide the VU Meters control region, click the VU Meters button in the View Controls pane.
Right-click the meter and choose a setting from the shortcut menu (or hover over the meter and roll your
mouse wheel) to change the resolution and display options. For more information, see "Monitor track levels
with VU/PPM meters" on page 358.

If the Meters control region is not visible, peak meters are displayed in the Faders control region.
Right-click the meter and choose a setting from the shortcut menu to change the resolution and display
options.
