Surround Metering
Soundtrack Pro provides a variety of level meters to monitor output levels as you make
surround panning adjustments.
Surround Panner HUD Meters
The Surround Panner HUD includes level meters that show volume information from
the specific track or bus that you are panning. These meters can be hidden or displayed
by using the disclosure triangle. Track-specific meters are a useful reference given the
possible psychoacoustical “illusions” in surround mixing, such as the phantom center.
Meters Tab
The Meters tab displays levels for the current multitrack project. The channels displayed
in the Meters tab and in the Mixer meters (described in “
Mixer Meters ” on page 305)
depend on the audio interface connected to your computer, the current panner
settings, and the current output settings in System Preferences.
