I missed the tutorial message that says left clicking after ctrl+f2 will show
meter option.
Basically, I guess I can read how hard I'm driving the bus by setting the bus
meter to pre fader.

Subject: [ddots-l] Found Solution To Reading Bus Input Meter
Ah, I think I found the answer from the article called "Sonar: Metering
options explained" from Sound on Sound. It says:
In the case of the Buss meters, there's an additional option, as they can
read the pre-fader/pre-effects signal, the pre-fader/post-effects signal, or
the post-fader signal (which, as mentioned, reflects whatever the effects are
doing). Why is this level of detail provided? Because busses often include
'send' effects such as reverb. As multiple signals may feed a buss, if an
overload is occurring you need to know if it is due to excessive signal levels
hitting the buss or simply a problem with an effect. (You can't simply monitor
post-fader, because busses with send effects can sometimes have a fairly low
output and you wouldn't 'see' any distortion.)
Meter option seems to be on the toolbar, how can I access with ct?
