View Noise Floor dbs scales

mike_F

My Decibel bar at bottom of the screen only measures to -50db, actually -45db is the lowest actual number.

I need to see that my noise floor is no louder than -60db but cant find a way of seeing as low as this on any scale on the screen. Any thoughts anyone?. I have a masters 5.03 version of wavepad.

mike_F

sorry. thats masters version 8.03

anyone know if that is the latest wavepad audio version?

mike_F

Yeah. I dont understand why they havent updated me, or is there something I am not doing

I had a chat with support and they tell me the scale from 0 to -45db is standard and can't be changed. Which is crazy as noise floors are so important and normally need to be checked that they don't exceed -60db.

with a scale only registering down to -45db, I can never tell if my noise floor is coming in between -59 and -48 which would be too high

anyone else had this problem please?

Hi,

Is there anyone out there who can recommend noise metering plugins which are compatible with NCH Wavepad Audio. Thanks.

mike_F

obviously not, so have downloaded a Nugen noise meter which tells me that the noise levels after each word take seconds to drop down to the floor level. Yet my wavepad release is set at 50 millisecs.

Is anyone else out there having frustrations with wavepad tech support. I am just not getting any replies even though I bought a masters edition AND platinum tech support. Am I alone?

Hi mike F

I am discussing the issue of the dB meter range with a few others. Hopefully we should be able to get you a good resolution soon.
