Session Statistics

The session display reports these values for the four input channels:

H Highest true peak in the session. It is equal to the highest peak

indicator reading on the corresponding level meter, and does not
depend on the meter Scale & Ballistics selected through the
Level Meters submenu.

H Highest meter bar reading (“bar rdg”) of the session. This

corresponds to the highest reading of the meter bar, which — for a
given audio program — may depend on the meter Scale &
Ballistics selected through the Level Meters submenu.
