Hi. you could use a light probe or a color detector perhaps? It'd depend
on the type of level meter; how it gives people a sighted representation of
the levels being hit when you put something through it.
Keep in mind though that if you're working at 24 bit, you don't need to
track really hot. You should track with less input gain so you won't risk
digital clipping.
Even if you are using a tube channel strip, you can get the tube saturation
you want on that, and then bring down the level of the output before it goes
into your daw.

Subject: [ddots-l] reading annalog meters
Hello folks,
I am thinking about purchasing a channel strip, is there a way using jaws
to read the meters on the channel strip? I can see the way of doing this in
sonar, but I am not sure it would work. How do people like us read the
meters when setting levels on annalog preamps... anyone who does this for
a living have any thoughts or suggestions? Yhanks,
Brian
