Re: Pre-Fader Metering vs Post-Fader Metering
I never use post-fader metering. When tracking, I want my meter to show me the input level. As long as the fader isn't moved from unity gain, it wouldn't make a difference, but that's not generally the case and certainly not worth counting on. I also don't use any plug-ins when I'm tracking either. When mixing, I stay in pre-fader metering so that if I mute mute a track it doesn't make the meter disappear and I can tell that there's actually some there.
I'd actually be hard pressed to tell you why you WOULD use post-fader metering.
