trying to get a true output level reading. i've got my mix sounding good using ozone on the master fader. in ozone, the output meter tells me that the max output is -0.3db. that's fine and dandy, but in protools, the master volume fader is post ozone, which allows me to change the volume, not knowing what the "real" output level is. i tried plugging in TL mastemeter, but same thing, the protools master volume fader is post all that. if i set the protools fader at 0, it's way too loud and distorts. so, what can i use to check what the true output level is at the master fader on protools? I'm trying to get the maximum loudness without distorting. the way i have it, i'm still relying on ears.

any help much appreciated.
