Standard and useful metering for a lot of uses. The current level is the
solid lighted area, showing the "sort of RMS" value a VU meter would
show, as that's a good representation of the loudness of the channel.
The one segment lit up on the right is emulating the movement of a
standard PPM needle quite well, holding the peak long enough for it to
be seen clearly and slowly dropping back until the next peak resets it,
giving you the information you need to avoid clipping.
So what is the useful significance of the peak indicator slowly dropping
back (yes, hold it for a period for sure, to ensure it isn't missed),
when no signal is actually doing that ?
Surely the actual peak and the current signal are all that is
important, and the animated toy means nothing at all ?
