Historical Metering
To gain an overall picture of the levels in an en-
tire session, TL MasterMeter can be inserted on a
Master Fader track and the entire session played
from beginning to end. This is typically done
during final mix and mastering.
When session playback is complete, TL Master-
Meter shows historical peak and event informa-
tion for the entire session, as well as a historical
list of events in the browsers for both signal clips
and oversampled clips. You can then manually
examine the relevant parts of the session using
the timecode listed in the browsers to determine
any appropriate corrective actions.

Displays
Signal Clip Events Browser
The Signal Clip Events browser displays histori-
cal clip events from the current session. The col-
umns displayed show the relevant time code for
the beginning and ending of a clip event. When
used in a stereo track, the first column shows L
or R to indicate if the left or right channel has
clipped. The Min and Max values in this browser
will always be zero, unless the Clip level is set
below zero. The contents of this browser can be
sorted in ascending and descending order by
any column simply by clicking on the desired
column one or more times.
The time information displayed in this browser
is relative to where the transport started. The
Offset field can be used to adjust the timecode
values if TL MasterMeter is being used for histor-
ical metering but the session was started from a
point other than the beginning. If TL MasterMe-
ter is being used in real time, the timecode infor-
mation in this browser can be ignored.
At the bottom of the browser, the Peak field dis-
plays the highest dB value of the audio signal re-
ceived so far. The Events field shows the histor-
ical total of clip events in the audio signal. Once
TL MasterMeter reaches 2,000 clip events, it
ceases to record additional events. Although the
meters remain active and the Peak field contin-
ues to be updated, new events will not be added
to the browsers. The Events field flashes “2000”
to indicate this condition.
The information in this browser is cleared using
the Clear button, or is cleared automatically
whenever the Pro Tools transport is started.
