Default Setting VUMT to read input and output levels??

Hi everybody,

A silly question probably but... how do you set your VU meters so that you have one reading your input prior effects and one reading your output level after effects for gain staging??
I only work on one track -voice over recording-.

I don't think it's a silly question, in fact, when I learned this from a Spanish engineer through his YouTube channel, it helped me a lot, Spanish is my mother tongue.

What he suggests and I do since then in every track and effect is placing a Peak Meter before and after the effect. I use mvMeter2 by TBProAudio and like I said before, in db Peak.
