When I create a new audio track, set the inputs and arm the track, the track meters do not show input levels. It’s only when I hit the main record button that track meters show input level. Not a show-stopper, but I do like to check the levels before recording for real instead of having to do a “fake record” that I undo to check the levels coming in on the track. Happening in 8.10, was also happening in 8.9. Was fine in 8.6.
Monitor modes changed in Ardour 8.7:
Specifically rule 11,27,43,59 in The Ardour Manual - Ardour Monitor Modes
The meter no longer shows input when transport is rolling (unless you explicitly request it).
Just trying to make sure I understand how it now works: Ardour no longer shows input unless the In button is pressed?
Is there a way to have Ardour show input while transport is rolling even when the In button is not active?
