Resolution: Invalid Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: João Pais (jmmmp) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: general audio meter

Initial Comment: audio meters are very nice, but not 100% helpful. the sound level is connected to the actual sound volume of the system, and not to pd dac~ output (independently of how many there are). wouldn't the latter make more sense?

Message: I probably was high or drunk when I filed that report, then. (curious, I remember double checking). I'll try to erase it and don't waste anyone's time.

Message: those meters have not been added in 0.43; but have always been there

older implementations would just display the levels as numbers, whereas the gui-rewrite gives you a (hopefully more appealing) graphical representation.

anyhow, looking at the code, the levels are calculated in the code that sends signals to the [dac~] (resp. fetches signals from the [adc~]), so no system-levels are involved at all: whatever you see are numbers only related to Pure data (which i think is the correct behaviour)

Message: Hi. Ooops, yes. I meant the audio meters of the Pd window, the ones added in version 0.43. Hmm, I just tested them again with 0.43.0-devel-20100315 windows, and it doesn't behave as I say initially. I can't test on ubuntu now, but either it got corrected, or I submitted a false error.

Best,

João

Message: I am not sure which audio meters you mean. As far as I know, the meters in the Pd window are related to dac~ output, but I could be wrong.
