Tópico: showing the actual GAIN applied?

Este tópico es antiguo y puede contener información incorrecta para la nueva versión.

HI

I use autogain, and I want to display the gain applied by the gain knob, but %Pbpmex shows only the 0.0db that autogain has achieved, but for example, if I have a song with very low volume, I have to apply like +6db, autogain automatically applies that, I have the knob showing that +6b, but the %Pbpmex shows the 0db achieved.

any variable to show the gain applied not the gain we get in the end?
thanks!

Not sure why you are using %Pbpmex for Gain??

Try:
"%level db"
 
sorry, I meant:
%Plevel dB
 
thanks, you were faster than me
so the difference between %Plevel dB and %level dB is what I was looking for? seems so

thanks!


pd: do you know how to display the year? %year does not work ;P
 
well no, it's different
%level dB : shows the gain of the song
%Plevel dB : shows the gain of the song we get after the gain knob

I'm trying to show the gain applied with the gain knob.
 
I'm not sure i fully understand what you are trying to do, but you could try %Llevel and see whether that show what you want.

format="`get loaded_song 'year'`"


NOTE the ` at either end - it will not work without these.
 
thanks! the year works great.

but not the gain...
I want to show the gain applied with the gain knob.

%Llevel
shows nothing, I've tried:
%Llevel db
and only shows db
:P
 
%level

Works for me. If you put your mouse on the gain knob it will show the applied gain which is the same as %level

Yep, working perfectly.
 
try action instead of format.
Havent tested but try ...
<text ........ action="gain"/>
normally it will return the value you see on the Tooltip, but maybe not :) (could return the %position of the slider ...not sure)
 
I'm using autogain, but I think this does not change anything

%Plevel : shows the "volume" of the song as it is played, if autogain is engaged this should be always 0.0 db

%level : shows the original "volume" of the song, before gain is applied. If you have autogain, you add this to the gain you see in the tooltip of the gain knob, the result is 0.0 db

%Llevel : still don't understand what it does... gain related number, but I don't understand it

action="gain" : can't understand it either, gain related number, but I don't understand it



what I was looking for, is to get the number you get with the tooltip over the gain knob.

It return the value betwen 0-1. 0 - gain knob min, 1 - gain knob max, 0,5 - gain knob in the middle (0,00 dB). How i can show in the textzone value in dB, as on the Tooltip? (0,00 instead 0,5?) What is %Llevel?
 
Some of the % commands can be used with modifiers. Modifiers are capitalized letters you insert between the % and the command. You can use:

P : modify the value to reflect the pitch change
L : use the local value instead of the global value (only used by %level)
B : display the value as a number of beat instead of a time
