Figure 3-25 Production Maestro Pro Options Metering Scale and Ballistics

Metering scale and ballistics

The metering scale and ballistics options specify how the audio levels are scaled and
displayed.

Nordic N9

The Nordic N9 option displays the audio level as a peak programme meter (PPM) and
gives a better level reading. The scale is of the type used in Scandinavia.

VU

The VU option displays the audio level as a Volume Unit (VU) meter and uses Root Mean
Square voltage to display the audio level. This is a commonly used type of audio metering
but does not always give the most accurate reading.

The VU meter scale has zero point at +4dBu with a decibel scale ranging non-linearly from
20dB below this point to 3dB above.
