this is not really a function of the fader directly, but of an arbitrary decision to have a static range of -inf to +6dB of applied gain. any such decision will be arbitrary - however, it being software it would be nice to be able to pick the range. > But what is really confusing is that the fader and > meter scales are different, while they are side by > side - it's quite easy to think that the meter's > scale ticks apply to the fader as well. i don't see any solution to this. AFAIK the specs for various standard meters and for various standard faders do not use the same scale. any time you put them side-by-side, there seems to be potential for confusion. ardour isn't use standards for either, but the same issue applies. if you have ideas i'm all ears (but no minutes to code it at present). _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-dev
