Channel by channel, through the film
One lane per speaker, the whole film from left to right. Bar height is how loud that speaker gets (square-root scale against this film's loudest moment, so quiet passages stay visible). The amber line under a lane marks the moments counted as playing, and the figure on the right is their share of the film. For the six height speakers that share is part of BUBBLE.
Read from PerceptualPro's channel-activity graph, pixel by pixel. A lane marked unused never rises out of its line.
