facej Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 I normally have my channel strip metering scale set to "Exponential: Provides higher display resolution in the upper level meter range." On my machines, 10.7.0 and 10.7.1, the "Scale" option in Preferences>Display>Mixer is missing. My fader scale is set to "Sectional dB-linear" which is not what I want. Am I the only one?

Atlas007 Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 I didn’t check (not being at the studio) but that option was apparently removed in those last versions. I don’t know why… Nevertheless, the documentation keeps mentioning about same… Perhaps an omission? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 I'm afraid they've just removed that feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mauveformation Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 I'm afraid they've just removed that feature. Hi David, should I keep the slider at the Zero at the very top? Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Hi David, should I keep the slider at the Zero at the very top? Thank you. I'm not sure I understand your question. You mean the volume fader? That volume fader is for adjusting the volume of the track, so you put it where you want so that you hear that specific instrument at the desired loudness.

GeeMan Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Wow, that's incredibly disappointing. In popular genres you're looking for detail in the signal in that upper region more than anything else. Why on earth would they chuck that simple functionality away?

Why on earth would they chuck that simple functionality away? If I had to guess I'd say it's most likely because of confusion with people changing the preference unwillingly or using a different system set to a different preference and thinking that something is wrong with their levels - only because they are displayed with a different ratio. But that's just a guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeeMan Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Right. It's a shame they didn't think to hide it for people/amateurs who don't turn on the advanced / enable complete features option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilM Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 I agree. I spent ages looking for it. Why they couldn't just keep it or at least document it confounds me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathbishop Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Wow, this is so frustrating. Crossing my fingers that adding exponential scale will be in an update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
