Mike,
I discovered this change and made changes to my soundcard levels. But I have
to confess that the slider looks like it controls levels also. First it is
adjacent to the level meter on the left bottom, and second it is not labeled.
Personally if it controls something waterfall it should be on the waterfall.
In the end though it needs something to indicate that its effect is on the
waterfall, and there is a tooltip to indicate that. Perhaps a note in the
change notes is warrented.

What change? The meter shows the recording level now instead of the waterfall
level. The slider controls the waterfall and not the meter anymore (it never
should have).
We talked about removing the slider and putting it on the waterfall but some
wanted it to remain on the main screen.

Hi Joe
Perhaps worth mentioning the change to the audio level setting to avoid
inadvertent clipping - folks now have to adjust soundcard level controls,
radio level or external 'attenuator'.
