It gives a post-production engineer, with the
skill to interpret what he sees, a better
indication of what the compressor is doing
to the overal dynamic that any PPM ever could.
Don't be ridiculous !
Compressors have GAIN REDUCTION METERS. That's what you monitor, not damn
stupid
VU meters.
Indeed they do. (Don't shout - this is an audio group)
The point was that he used the VU to show what he called
the increase in apparent loudness of the signal. This is
probably easier for the client to understand than a gain
reduction meter.
