Waveform (db) not showing up as an option

Hoping someone can help me with this. I want to use noise gate, but I am not given the option to highlight waveform (db) in the side menu, as it isn’t even listed there. The menu shows multi-view, waveform & spectrogram, but not waveform (db). Does anyone know how to fix this?

I have the same issue - all I am offered when I right click the vertical drop-down is Multiview, Waveform and Spectrogram. There is no waveform (db) as others recommend to use. Can anyone help pleeeease? My audiobook keeps getting rejected because the background noise is apparently not -6db.

Right-click on the scale, not the drop-down arrow.

The spec is -60dB or lower (more negative) but it can also get rejected if it’s too quiet (“over processed”).

I don’t think you’ll get enough visual resolution around -60dB.
