Euphonix Style Meters

Euphonix Style Metering

To get Euphonix style meter colors in Nuendo or Cubase with a hard color break point at -20dB FS and then a gradient change from yellow to red in the upper area either go to your "Documents and Settings\USER\Application Data\Steinberg\Nuendo 4\Presets\Configurations\CONFIGNAME.XML" file and replace the old "Audio Meters Colors" code with the following:

<member name="Audio Meters Colors">
<list name="Points" type="obj">
<obj class="CColorBreakPoint" ID="73626264">
<float name="Position" value="0.070100001990795135"/>
<int name="Flags" value="0"/>
<int name="Color" value="15814922"/>
</obj>
<obj class="CColorBreakPoint" ID="73573408">
<float name="Position" value="0.20000000298023224"/>
<int name="Flags" value="0"/>
<int name="Color" value="16776960"/>
</obj>
<obj class="CColorBreakPoint" ID="73738296">
<float name="Position" value="0.25609999895095825"/>
<int name="Flags" value="8"/>
<int name="Color" value="7335556"/>
</obj>
<obj class="CColorBreakPoint" ID="73738512">
<float name="Position" value="0.58240002393722534"/>
<int name="Flags" value="0"/>
<int name="Color" value="2023266"/>
</obj>
<obj class="CColorBreakPoint" ID="73738584">
<float name="Position" value="0.58240002393722534"/>
<int name="Flags" value="0"/>
<int name="Color" value="499188"/>
</obj>
</list>
</member>

 

or if editing "C:\Documents and Settings\USER\Application Data\Steinberg\Nuendo 4\Defaults.XML" then check for:

<item>
<string name="Group" value="AudioMeterAppearance"/>
<member name="Values">
<obj class="CBreakPointSet" ID="83750256" name="AudioMeterBreakPoints">
<list name="Points" type="obj">

<int name="Flags" value="0"/>
<int name="Color" value="15814922"/>
</obj>
<obj class="CColorBreakPoint" ID="62374848">
<float name="Position" value="0.20000000298023224"/>
<int name="Flags" value="0"/>

Great suggestion. It didn't work for me though, but you can also easily do the same thing by going to Preferences for metering (File/Preferences/Appearance/Meters), Alt click (Windows)to add more color designators or "arrows", set the colors you want for each section, then add a new arrow below each area you want a hard break color point (should be set to the color below), then as you move closer to the next "arrow", the break point becomes harder, up to the superimposition point.
