98 Chapter 7 Metering Tools • Sum and Max buttons: Determine whether a summed or maximum level is displayed in the Analyzer results in the main display. These buttons are relevant only when multiple channels are selected with the channel buttons. • Channel buttons: Used to select a single channel or a combination of channels for metering. The number and appearance of these buttons varies when different surround modes are chosen. • View fields: Alter the way that values are shown in the Analyzer by setting the maximum level displayed (Top) and the overall dynamic range (Range). • Mode buttons: Determine how levels are displayed. You can choose from Peak, Slow RMS, or Fast RMS characteristics. • The two RMS modes show the effective signal average, and provide a representative overview of perceived volume levels. • The Peak mode shows level peaks accurately. • Scale (shown in the main display): Indicates the scale of levels. Adjusting the scale is useful when analyzing highly compressed material, as it makes it easier to identify small level differences. Drag vertically on the scale to adjust it. Using the Surround MultiMeter Goniometer A goniometer helps you to judge the coherence of the stereo image and determine phase differences between the left and right channels. Phase problems are easily spotted as trace cancelations along the center line (M—mid/mono). The idea of the goniometer was born with the advent of early two-channel oscilloscopes. To use such devices as goniometers, users would connect the left and the right stereo channels to the X and Y inputs, while rotating the display by 45° to produce a useful visualization of the signal’s stereo phase. The signal trace slowly fades to black, imitating the retro glow of the tubes found in older goniometers, while also enhancing the readability of the display.
Because the Surround MultiMeter Goniometer is dealing with multichannel signals, the display is divided into multiple segments, as shown in the image. Each segment indicates a speaker position. When the surround panner is moved in a channel strip, the indicator changes accordingly. This indicates not only left and right channel coherence, but also the front-to-rear coherence. • Goniometer button: Displays the Goniometer results in the main display. • Auto Gain field: Sets the amount of display compensation for low input levels. You can set Auto Gain levels in 10% increments, or set it to off. Note: To avoid confusion with the Auto Gain parameter found in other Soundtrack Pro effects and processors (such as the compressors), Auto Gain is only used as a display parameter in the meters. It increases display levels to enhance readability. It does not change the actual audio levels. • Decay field: Determines the time it takes for the Goniometer trace to fade to black. • L–R, Ls–Rs, Both buttons: Determine which channel pairs are shown in the main display. When you are using the Surround MultiMeter in configurations with exactly two channel pairs (quad, 5.1, and 6.1 configurations), the Goniometer can display both pairs if you select Both. One pair (for L-R) appears in the upper half of the main display, and one (for Ls-Rs) appears in the lower half. Chapter 7 Metering Tools 99
