I noticed you removed the low/high/clip indicator.
You don't think users might want to know when these conditions occur? In
particular clipping? I also thought having the text indicators helps the color
blind people.
Also thought we could add another peak indicator like the one for noise that
might be interesting for users...along with being educational.

Please let us know what you think of the changes made in r7597 to the
audio level meter. In particular, to the color(s) used for the
thermometer bar.
For a trial period, we now have red indicating A/D saturation, green
"normal" levels, and yellow noise levels so low that quantization errors
are significant. One should "almost never" see the warning colors
unless something is significantly wrong, so my feeling is that the color
changes should not be distracting in normal operation.
Should we stay with the three-color arrangement? If yes, could we
choose a better set of three colors?
