0dBv=-20dBfs is technically the "standard". At least according to SMPTE. ProTools defaults to -18dBfs for whatever reason.
I'm kind of fuzzy on the logic used by the guy at 3D. (It could easily be my ignorance) But with headroom defined as "the difference between nominal operating level and distortion" wouldn't the "worst of his pres" have up to 24dB of available headroom with his settings instead of 3dB like he suggests?
