I don't think so. I think it just reports the meetre reading at the time. If you want to check the hiest level on a wave file then, use the "find peaks" tool in Sound Forge. It's in Sound Forges tools menu. You just load up a wave file and Sound Forge will quickly go through the wave file and find the hiest peak.

Subject: [ddots-l] output meter report with control+shift+f2



I have multiple tracks of audio ranging in length between 1 and 1 and a half hours in a given project. I am trying to bring them all up to around -2.5 DB. Does Shift+Control+F2 give me a report on each tracks total peak level? Or, only that portion of the tracks that have been "played back". In other words, I want to know at a glance what is the loudest each track gets over the entire length of the track, which again, is at least 1 hour in length. I can't very well play the tracks from start to end just to test the max DB levels, but sonar appears only to report on the portions that have been recently played, or since the last meter refresh. What's the solution here?
