PPM instead of dB anyone? at DVinfo.net

Does anyone know if it's possible to set the audio meters / busses to PPM in Vegas instead of the dBs? There does not appear to be any preference setting but maybe there is a plug in or something?

what you need is PPMulator:

fantastic little plugin written by the guy who wrote Mackie's Tracktion sequencer - download a free trial then i'm sure you'll buy the thing it's only £49.99 GBP - ideal for broadcast work. I hope one day Sony or Avid or one of the big editor companies will integrate this in their NLE and give the guy a big fat cheque. VU meters, virtually useless!

That's great news. I'll have a look at that. Sounds very promising. Been desperate for PPMs for ages! Many thanks.
