Meter Bridge Overview

The Meter Bridge (illustrated below) is always visible at the top of the Console window.

It displays all non-hidden input channels (those that are not hidden with the Show/Hide

Inputs feature), signal activity at these inputs, and the Bank Bar, which is used to scroll

inputs that are out of horizontal view.

For detailed descriptions of all Meter Bridge elements, see Meter Bridge.
