Ok i would like some eye candy for my next case. I have an old school mil spec meter thats 20ua. What I would like to do is have a simple circuit that progressively dampen the response as the signal gets louder. aka first half of the dial represents 20mw, then the 2nd half might represent 200mw.

Example. 0.5.v in gets 0.5v out, 1v in gets 0.75v out, 2v in gets 1v out

would this be possible? Or would it be better to take the signal directly after the dac and before the pot and tune normally for vu representing the full 1.6vrms signal?
