Quick question: What’s the reason the meter isn’t moved to the bounce track after bouncing? If you disable bounce playback you’ll get a pre-fader reading unless you set it manually.

If the meter is set on an effect track below the bounce track, then the displayed meter will automatically switch to the output of the bounce track when bounce is enabled. Otherwise the meter would be inactive. When you deactivate bounce playback, the meter reverts to show the output of the configured meter track. I think this behaviour is better than actually moving the assigned meter to the bounce track when enabling bounce. Or did I misunderstand what you’re saying?

Perhaps it does make more sense… If you’re only using bouncing to freeze tracks, though, you’ll get a ‘wrong’ reading when you disable bounce playback, as the fader position is moved to the bounce track, but meter position stays pre-fader.

Here’s the scenario:
– You have a track without effects that peaks at -6 dB, track gain is also set to -6 dB. The meter shows -12.
– Bounce the track. The fader position is moved to the bounce track, the meter is now set pre-fader (just not during bounce playback) and shows -12.
– If you disable bounce playback now, the track’s meter shows -6 dB.
