Setting D-Command Meters for Different Reference Levels
The Pro Tools Reference Level meter preference lets you change the D-Command meter display to help monitor program material
with respect to different reference levels.
At each setting except 0 dB, a single LED lights continuously across the meter bridge at a fixed point to indicate that reference
level. You can then compare the peaks of the program material to the indicated level.
The following reference level settings are available:
0 dB
This is the normal setting used for referencing material to a 0 dB (full code) reference level.
–14 dB
This reference level setting lights a single LED at –14 dB across the meter bridge.
–18 dB
This reference level setting lights a single LED at –18 dB across the meter bridge.
–20 dB
This reference level setting lights a single LED at –20 dB across the meter bridge.
To set a D-Command meter reference level:
1
In the Soft Keys section, press the Meter switch.
2
Press the Soft Key that corresponds to “RefLvl” to cycle among the meter reference level settings.
3
Press the Meter switch to exit.
