The Audio Device Meter view displays the levels of the three possible output streams of an Audio Device:
Main mix
Passthrough
Objects
The Main mix and Passthrough meters show the values per channel, while the Objects meter shows the value per System Audio Object. Refer to The role of the System Audio Device to understand how audio is sorted into these three streams.
The color of the meters are:
green under -6 dB
yellow from -6 dB to 0 dB
red over 0 dB
The meter data source can be synchronized with currently playing objects or, when a profiling session is present, with historical values. When the meter is showing the profiling session history, use the LIVE button on the Wwise toolbar to return to current values.
For more information, refer to Monitoring the signal level.
For details on the Audio Device Meter Instance, A, B, C, or D, refer to Understanding Selection Channels and Meter Instances
