Thank you for the 'logarithmic and perceived loudness' part. I'd heard something like that, before, but my failure to internalize it makes it difficult to use compressors effectively without some kind of graphic. But no longer. NO LONGER.

hmmm, if you know that your studio tends to have lower bass response than in the car or other speakers i would just keep that in mind during the mixing phase and lower your bass track accordingly.

Yo Underbelly, when you say the solid green bar is the average level of the clip I'm a little confused. If it was the average of the whole clip it would always be at the same level right? So what exactly is it representing? Is it like the average of a specific time interval or from that instant on or something? I know this vid is 4 and a half years old lol but if you or anyone sees this I'd be happy to learn
