Dude, I was kidding. Moving the decimal one place to the left or
right is very basic!

I admit, Chris, it was a little confusing at first when I heard
his explination. Basically, I am not sure if you were being
sarcastic about math being difficult, or if you were serious. I'm
gonna assume the ladder.
So, look at t it this way... Let's say you have a double digit
decimal DB value. Let's use 12 just for example. So, forget for
a minute it being negative, or positive. Don't worry about
that. Just for now look from the bigger picture. Take the number
12, in general. 12 could also be written as 12.0.
So, 12.0 is no different than 12. Only thing is, with 12.0, we
now have a decimal place. So just move that decimal one place to
the left. So instead of 12, you now have 1.2. So think of it
this way, and this is what really helped me grasp it. The decimal
needs to be in between the two digits. So, say you needed
-16DB. That's kind of low, but just humor me here. So, what
makes up 16? 1, and 6, right? 16's written as 1 6. So, put a
decimal between those two digits. So, -16DB on the PT 11 meters
would equal -1.6DB. Hopefully, that makes sense.
Chris.

But but, math is difficult. LOL

Guys,
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.

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.
