I take it then that the same bank of LED's has their response altered to
suit the required application.  I remember the big thing in the '70's
was to equalize the metering system so that upper frequencies were shown
way above normal level.  I'd like to see one of those used on todays hot
CD recordings.  Hmmmm... :-)
See ya, Cameron Hall
