Hi Everyone,
There is an updated version of the Invada LV2 plugins available.
This release contains a new plugin, 'Meters', which features Peak, VU, Phase
Spectrograph meters.
Screenshot is here:

What's the point of using a meter if you adjust it to the signal ?
You are not changing the signal, you are changing the amount of headroom the VU
meter has. http://www.reference.com/browse/wiki/Headroom

Hi!
So whenever analogue equipment needs to work with digital equipment it
is configured so that 0dB in the analogue domain is at some (hopefully
calibrated and consistent) level below 0dB in the digital domain. The
actual value is

The amount of headroom between 0dB on the VU to digital 0dB is selectable from
- -15dB to -3 dB. There is no right value for this, it really depends on the
music, so just pick whatever value that causes the VU to spend most of it's
time
VU meter: Maybe you should call it 'analogVUemu'.
Phase correlator: Yep, some people generally spilt frequencies at around
200, resp. 250 Hz before they add effects or they avoid to panorama deep
sounds. A phase correlator can be mistaken, because of some single
sounds that don't matter in the

Get jkmeter, also includes a real correlation meter.
For VU and PPM meters that actually behave as VU
and PPM meters, get jmeters. Both available on

You may want to increase the range of that reference level calibration,
particularly as it applies to anything having a semi peak reading

-16dbFS = +4dbu is not an uncommon place to run, and -20 is another

I'm thinking 'tascam analogue level meter', perhaps everyone will chill a bit

The VU is a slow response meter (300ms integration time IIRC)intended to

The VU specs are based on what was possible 50 or

The meter doesn't show up in lv2rack. It shows up in ardour2.
zynjacku and lv2rack have cache of suitable plugins. Did you rescan the
LV2 world after you installed the new version of Invada plugins?

Okay :) I don't know professional cards for home recording myself and
the professional studios I know have external VU meters. For my Envy24
