Level Meters
Audio level meters appear at the right side of the Audio Editor controls. There are two
vertical bars that show the level at the current playhead position. The left bar shows
the levels for the left audio channel and the right bar shows the levels for the right
audio channel. As you play, the meters change to indicate the changing audio level.
Peak indicators appear at the top of the meters. These small lights illuminate red when
the volume exceeds acceptable levels (called peaking). They remain red for a short time
after the peak occurs.
Audio Editor Keyframe Graph
The remainder of the window contains the keyframe graph. This area contains the
curves and keyframes for the level and pan of the selected track. Keyframes appear as
diamonds, and curves appear as solid lines. Areas before the first keyframe and after
the last keyframe are represented with dotted lines. The waveform of the selected track
is displayed behind the curves.
