ABSTRACT
164When it comes to level meters, the abundance and different types of appearances of the scales are overwhelming. However, most of them share a common trait in that their scales use divisions that are based on units in dB. There can be a difference between the scales as far as the portion of the dynamic range that they cover. For certain purposes, it is important to be able to monitor the entire dynamic range. In other cases, it is only important to see what is occurring near full modulation. Some scales combine both properties.
