I figured that you were, but just in case, I thought I'd better explained.
Hopefully, someone else who does! seriously find it hard may get some value
out of this. Though I don't find it hard, I do! find it confusing, at best,
and I hate that in my head I have to take time to convert. OK, I'll admit,
I'm just lazy. guilty as charged. What I wonder is, and Slau, you or
someone may have to confirm this, but did they visually change something
with the meters?
In other words, did they change the meters so that they read a little
differently, or did the meters themselves not change as much as Voiceover
changed the way it reads.
In other words, for -12DBFS, is it really actually showing -1.2 visually,
and a sighted person like us, just has to know to convert that, or is it
something where visually it really indeed does! show -12, it's just that
Voiceover doesn't know this.
I'm just ultimately trying to pinpoint down if this is actually a bug, or if
Voiceover's actually reporting it exactly as is; we just have to know that
this is the case.
I'm just glad that I'm nhot the only one on this list who saw this. I
thought I was going crazy!
Chris.

I was kidding by the way. But yes, that's a simple solution.

Write an apple script to convert the value? :P

>> As I mentioned a few days ago, it's an issue with the way the
meter is displaying only 14.4 dB of range. Between version 10 and 11, the
meter display changed and, as I mentioned before, it's something that
needs to be fixed. Think of everything as being one decimal spot off. In
other words, if you get a reading of -2 dB, what the meter is really
saying is -20 dB. If you're shooting for -15 dB, make sure your meter
reads -1.5 dB. Move the decimal one spot to the right in your mind. If
anybody wants to verify, create a track with a signal generator putting
out a tone at -20 dB and check the meter on the track and you'll see that
it displays -2.0. Adjust the output of the signal generator and it'll
follow the behavior I've outlined above.

the exact model, as it was donated to me by a studio in my area which is
going out of business unfortunately, however I have some form of a
Scarlet. I think it's made by Focusright. Anyway, I can confirm with this
interface that like Christopher, I too am seeing the same problem with my
meters in PT11. I'm not getting identically the same readout as he
obviously, but it's definitely showing a much hotter signal than what I
know beyond a doubt is coming in. In PT10, like Christohper, I do not
have this situation either. My meters read fine over there. So, Slau,
with the utmost respect, I think you saying there are things Christopher
doesn't yet understand is a little bit harsh. I earnestly don't think
Chris is doing anything wrong. If he is, then why am I also having the
same problem with a completely different interface, not even made by the
same manufacturer? That just seems a bit odd to me that this would be
opporator error. I can't speak for Christopher, but I can tell you from
my part at least that I'm not doubting your experience nor credibility,
and if I implied in any way that I did, I apologize. I just find it
coencidental that he's having this issue, and that I am as well.
