Re: Finally; An accessible RMS/LUFS/VU/peak meter and accessible spectrum analyser is here are of charge
Hi John, Agreed, having access to the various flavors of meters would be helpful but the problem of LUFS readings cannot be solved by a real-time meter. We still have to rely on the overall analysis which only plug-ins currently offer. Thanks for interfacing with them to help further the accessibility.

Re: Finally; An accessible RMS/LUFS/VU/peak meter and accessible spectrum analyser is here are of charge
Hi Slau, As far as I know, they are using the frame work they use for other plugins they develop, but I have no clue what code language they use. Feel free to contact the developer at proau...@tb-software.com Since integrated loudness only gives an average loudness of the whole song, I need to also know I’m below the short loudness values I’m aiming for, something the AccessiblePeakMeter2 covers. Yes, it would be better with a specific number read out like the level meter in Pro Tools does for peak, but an audible feedback for a threshold that one aims for, is for me the next best, but currently only solution. Of course, if AVID would make the meter in Pro Tools reflect the meter setting in the preferences also for VoiceOver users, instead of only showing peak values, it would be nice….

Hi John, I'm sure it's calibrated to the reference but there's no way to read an attained value with the plug-in, at least not in Pro Tools. I saw that there was some facility to get to those values through reaper and perhaps Logic but it's not accessible in the AAX version. Hearing it and reading it are two entirely different things. Ian's an old friend of mine and the stand-alone app he suggests provides the relevant information but simply not in plug-in form which is okay but not ideal.

Re: Finally; An accessible RMS/LUFS/VU/peak meter and accessible spectrum analyser is here are of charge
Hi, It shows the integrated loudness (program loudness), the true peak value and the loudness range (difference between the loudest and most silent passages in the file). If you interact with the table and navigate left/right you’ll hear 3 values, can’t remember which is first or last, but I think the true peak was last.

Hi, Ian Shepherd suggested this small app that read out several values for the file you load into it, I’ve tested it and if you know the label of the values in the table, the values are accessible with VO.

Re: Finally; An accessible RMS/LUFS/VU/peak meter and accessible spectrum analyser is here are of charge
Hi John, First, I see no documentation in my Shared Library. I'm wondering whether it's available separately. I'll double check. Second, this meter plug-in is measuring peak and RMS values but not LUFS which offers momentary, short-term, Loudness unit and integrated loudness values. I don't see how those are accessible through this meter. Am I missing something? Otherwise, it's simply a peak/RMS meter. While I'm happy it exists, personally, I find the use of a signal extremely distracting and a series of values would be far more useful. Again, not having been able to find the documentation, maybe I'm missing something but, given that we're dealing with automation parameters rather than an accessible reading of values, I can't see how this would qualify as an LUFS meter. BTW, do you know if they're using JUCE as the development platform?

Re: Finally; An accessible RMS/LUFS/VU/peak meter and accessible spectrum analyser is here are of charge
Hi John, The result of the analysis is not yet accessible but you can use VOCR to read the result. It still won't put you at the exact spot but you'll know the peak value. Technically, at that point, you can use the Strip Silence dialog to set the threshold just below that value and you'll be able to tab right to it. Frankly, it's all a bit of hurdle jumping and you'd probably be just as well off letting the track run through or even just shuttling through it at high speed. If it's a 5-minute song, it'll take like forty seconds to go through the whole tune and you'll have your peak value. > On Oct 28, 2018, at 12:27 PM, John Covici wrote: > > I am very surprised there is not a plug in which will do this.

I should also add that the manuals for these plugins are found in the users/shared/documentation folder on your startup drive. Hi, Yes, all the meters will alert you when the threshold you set are touched. So that’s also the case when the meter is set to show peak values. So, if you aim to have the meters at a maximum level of -14 dB LUFS or -16 dB RMS, or -0,5 dB peak level, you simply set the threshold to the value you aim for and raise the volume until you hear the threshold is touched by the music. For some music genres, it might also be a good idea to make sure the dynamic range of your song, that is the difference between the loudest and the most silent parts of your song, is not more than for example 8 dB. You can check this by setting the threshold to a value 8 dB lower than what you aim for as the highest loudness, and then play the most silent parts of your song. If the threshold is not touched here, you might consider fixing that issue by using automation or compression to even out the dynamics in the song. I’m working on a set of presets for the plugins in Pro Tools, to simplify this, since you then can have separate presets for different meter types and different situations. but you might of course create such presets yourself in Logic Pro or Pro Tools. If you would like to know the specific value of the meter at different parts in a song, you should adjust the threshold up and down until you hear the threshold value is touched by the music. If you would like to work with the K system (K14,K20 etc.), you set the threshold to the K value, but use the RMS+3dB mode. The spectrum analyser works the same way, but here you should first set a freq value and a range, and then set the threshold until you hear the music is touching the threshold for that frequency range. So, if you set the freq to 1k (1000Hz), the range to 500Hz, and the threshold is touched at a certain value, you know t

Hi John, What about putting a limiter on the master buss and setting the output ceiling to what ever you want? Waves l1 or l2 or l3 is accessible to do this. :) Would that work for your need?

I should also add that the manuals for these plugins are found in the users/shared/documentation folder on your startup drive. Hi, Yes, all the meters will alert you when the threshold you set are touched. So that’s also the case when the meter is set to show peak values. So, if you aim to have the meters at a maximum level of -14 dB LUFS or -16 dB RMS, or -0,5 dB peak level, you simply set the threshold to the value you aim for and raise the volume until you hear the threshold is touched by the music. For some music genres, it might also be a good idea to make sure the dynamic range of your song, that is the difference between the loudest and the most silent parts of your song, is not more than for example 8 dB. You can check this by setting the threshold to a value 8 dB lower than what you aim for as the highest loudness, and then play the most silent parts of your song. If the threshold is not touched here, you might consider fixing that issue by using automation or compression to even out the dynamics in the song. I’m working on a set of presets for the plugins in Pro Tools, to simplify this, since you then can have separate presets for different meter types and different situations. but you might of course create such presets yourself in Logic Pro or Pro Tools. If you would like to know the specific value of the meter at different parts in a song, you should adjust the threshold up and down until you hear the threshold value is touched by the music. If you would like to work with the K system (K14,K20 etc.), you set the threshold to the K value, but use the RMS+3dB mode. The spectrum analyser works the same way, but here you should first set a freq value and a range, and then set the threshold until you hear the music is touching the threshold for that frequency range. So, if you set the freq to 1k (1000Hz), the range to 500Hz, and the threshold is touched at a certain value, you know that this is the volume between 1000 and 1500 Hz. By moving the freq value up and down, and change the threshold until it is touched by the music, you’ll get a picture of how loud the music is in different freq ranges for this song. Does this make sense? ;) Best, John André >>

Re: Finally; An accessible RMS/LUFS/VU/peak meter and accessible spectrum analyser is here are of charge
Hi John. If you want to find the highest peak in a file without having to play through the file I don’t believe it’s doable easily in Protools. As Slau said there are work arounds that will assist you to do it. But what you need is a find largest peak option. This actual feature is available in programs like sound forge, But i’ve only found it in the windows version. Although i’ve not updated to the latest version of sound forge on the mac side, so it might be there now.I use this feature quite a bit especially in radio production. How it works is you go to the find largest peak from the menu, hit enter and it takes you to the largest peak in the file, and you can edit it from that point. Very useful. how ever i’ve not been able to achieve this in protools without playing the track, and looking at the highest peak on the metre read out. A sighted person could probably achieve this easily in Protools, i’d imagine, as they could see exactly where the highest peaks are in the time line. quickly. I don’t think the accessible peak metre will make it much quicker in this respect, as it works off the level metres, it couldn’t give you any audible indication what the highest peak was unless you are playing the track. How ever i’m happy to be corrected here if there are other ways to achieve this.

Re: Finally; An accessible RMS/LUFS/VU/peak meter and accessible spectrum analyser is here are of charge
Given that you already know a couple of passages in the file where you assume the highest peak is, playing them and adjusting the AccessiblePeakMeter2 in the peak mode until you find the position where the threshold is only touched once, will give you the highest peak position as well, but it’s of course not a very fast procedure. But doable….. I assume that using a fast forward with audio will not be sufficient, since the audio might not be at the correct level, and you will possibly loose the exact position you are looking for…, but it might give you an idea….

Re: Finally; An accessible RMS/LUFS/VU/peak meter and accessible spectrum analyser is here are of charge
As a workaround, you can use the Strip Silence dialog to set a threshold and temporarily strip away everything except for whatever crosses above the threshold and simply use the tab key to move to and play only the loudest sections of the file and look at the peak meter. If, say, you know that the average level hovers around -12 dB, setting a threshold for -5 dB would surely capture a handful of peaks. the lower the threshold, the more you'll have to tab through so it's a little guessing game but it does get the job done if that's what you need to do. > On Oct 26, 2018, at 12:04 PM, John Covici wrote: > > Thanks for your response. > > But that still does not tell me where it is in the file which I would > really like to know. > > > On Fri, 26 Oct 2018 10:23:37 -0400, > John André Lium-Netland wrote: >> >> I see your point….

I should also add that the manuals for these plugins are found in the users/shared/documentation folder on your startup drive. Hi, Yes, all the meters will alert you when the threshold you set are touched. So that’s also the case when the meter is set to show peak values. So, if you aim to have the meters at a maximum level of -14 dB LUFS or -16 dB RMS, or -0,5 dB peak level, you simply set the threshold to the value you aim for and raise the volume until you hear the threshold is touched by the music. For some music genres, it might also be a good idea to make sure the dynamic range of your song, that is the difference between the loudest and the most silent parts of your song, is not more than for example 8 dB. You can check this by setting the threshold to a value 8 dB lower than what you aim for as the highest loudness, and then play the most silent parts of your song. If the threshold is not touched here, you might consider fixing that issue by using automation or compression to even out the dynamics in the song. I’m working on a set of presets for the plugins in Pro Tools, to simplify this, since you then can have separate presets for different meter types and different situations. but you might of course create such presets yourself in Logic Pro or Pro Tools. If you would like to know the specific value of the meter at different parts in a song, you should adjust the threshold up and down until you hear the threshold value is touched by the music. If you would like to work with the K system (K14,K20 etc.), you set the threshold to the K value, but use the RMS+3dB mode. The spectrum analyser works the same way, but here you should first set a freq value and a range, and then set the threshold until you hear the music is touching the threshold for that frequency range. So, if you set the freq to 1k (1000Hz), the range to 500Hz, and the threshold is touched at a certain value, you know that this is the volume between 1000 and 1500 Hz. By moving the freq value up and down, and change the threshold until it is touched by the music, you’ll get a picture of how loud the music is in different freq ranges for this song. Does this make sense? ;) Best, John André On 24 Oct 2018, at 14:37, John André Lium-Netland wrote: Hi, Some great news today: Based on a previous external project and their own plugin framework, TBProAudio this month upgraded/developed AccesiblePeakMeter2, an accessible meter that will work for RMS/LUFS, VU, peak level and even for K12/K14/K20 if you set up some presets.

Re: Finally; An accessible RMS/LUFS/VU/peak meter and accessible spectrum analyser is here are of charge
Hi, I'm also testing this great tools in other DAW and their very handy indeed. Thanks to the developers and John for sharing it with us. I'm still getting use to this technique of course. Allow me to point this out: I don’t have SoundForge install in my MacPro but on a Windows system, within SoundForge Tools Statistics when copy to clipboard offers the following as the example below: Cursor position (Time) 00:00:02,373 Sample value at cursor (dB) -17,951 Minimum sample position (Time) 00:00:11,942 Minimum sample value (dB) -0,901 Maximum sample position (Time) 00:00:08,476 Maximum sample value (dB)-0,175 RMS level (dB) -19,963 Average value (dB) -95,530 Zero crossings (Hz) 1.589,88 The End. If I remember well Audacity offers a handy Statistics chart as well. It would be great if Pro Tools offer this kind of accessible inscribe Statistics. I believe Logic Pro X don’t offer that also. Who knows if one day Peak 2 offer a copy or export Statistics to a text document! Grin.

Now if only there were a way to find the maximum volume in a file, maybe n hour or two, that would be very nice. And I don't want to play the whole thing to find out!

Re: Finally; An accessible RMS/LUFS/VU/peak meter and accessible spectrum analyser is here are of charge
Hi, I’ve got a couple of questions related to the use of the accessible peak meter and spectrum analyser, and in case this is useful to someone else, I’ll paste inn my answers below. I should also add that the manuals for these plugins are found in the users/shared/documentation folder on your startup drive. Hi, Yes, all the meters will alert you when the threshold you set are touched. So that’s also the case when the meter is set to show peak values. So, if you aim to have the meters at a maximum level of -14 dB LUFS or -16 dB RMS, or -0,5 dB peak level, you simply set the threshold to the value you aim for and raise the volume until you hear the threshold is touched by the music. For some music genres, it might also be a good idea to make sure the dynamic range of your song, that is the difference between the loudest and the most silent parts of your song, is not more than for example 8 dB. You can check this by setting the threshold to a value 8 dB lower than what you aim for as the highest loudness, and then play the most silent parts of your song. If the threshold is not touched here, you might consider fixing that issue by using automation or compression to even out the dynamics in the song. I’m working on a set of presets for the plugins in Pro Tools, to simplify this, since you then can have separate presets for different meter types and different situations. but you might of course create such presets yourself in Logic Pro or Pro Tools. If you would like to know the specific value of the meter at different parts in a song, you should adjust the threshold up and down until you hear the threshold value is touched by the music. If you would like to work with the K system (K14,K20 etc.), you set the threshold to the K value, but use the RMS+3dB mode. The spectrum analyser works the same way, but here you should first set a freq value and a range, and then set the threshold until you hear the music is touching the threshold for that frequency range. So, if you set the freq to 1k (1000Hz), the range to 500Hz, and the threshold is touched at a certain value, you know that this is the volume between 1000 and 1500 Hz. By moving the freq value up and down, and change the threshold until it is touched by the music, you’ll get a picture of how loud the music is in different freq ranges for this song. Does this make sense? ;) Best, John André On 24 Oct 2018, at 14:37, John André Lium-Netland wrote: Hi, Some great news today: Based on a previous external project and their own plugin framework, TBProAudio this month upgraded/developed AccesiblePeakMeter2, an accessible meter that will work for RMS/LUFS, VU, peak level and even for K12/K14/K20 if you set up some presets.

Re: Finally; An accessible RMS/LUFS/VU/peak meter and accessible spectrum analyser is here are of charge
Hi, The new AccessiblePeakMeter2 is far better than the previous version, it’s built on the code from Queen Mary University, but now with the support for RMS, LUFS, VU and peak meter in one app. The new AccessibleSpectrumAnalyser is now compatible with Pro Tools, so should install as expected. By setting up presets for these plugins, one will have a great tool for many different tasks. I’ll share my own presets next week.

Re: Finally; An accessible RMS/LUFS/VU/peak meter and accessible spectrum analyser is here are of charge
Hi John. Thanks for this great news about metering software finally being accessible with voiceover!!! I will be forwarding this to my boss and other people at the postproduction company I work for. We use metering software all the time to analyze and set levels for programs, but some of our plug-ins however have not always been accessible. I hope this will make things much easier for blind engineers to accomplish this independently. I will check out the website. Thanks for the info!
