on CD. If this is desired, then the volume level at this position should be
monitored, since objects which are playing back simultaneously add to the
overall volume.

material for both stereo channels will be displayed separately.

Spectral display equates the X axis (horizontal) to the time dimension. In
contrast to the waveform display, whereby the height of the waveform only
