Anyone know of a VU meter in the AAX format?

Cheap, but should get the job done. I know Ian Shephard (mastering engineer) uses this all the time in WaveLab.

But mixing with the Ears gives Pleasure. when i reach a mind state i call "The Feedback", when my hands and my ears have a feedback, the brain makes pleasure. Mixing with the brain/eyes, is not the same. when everything is too technical, sounds OK, but the pleasure is gone. the ear has millions of years of evolution, the problem of mixing with the ears, is that the result is not always what i want, has too much variables. the computer is making too much fan noise, the Airplanes, The loudspeakers, the placement, the acoustics are USELESS.. *****. Mixing with the Ears is more difficult, with a pair of $100usd, speakers and a bedroom is impossible. Last edited by JuanPC; 04-25-2016 at 05:36 PM. |

Re: AAX VU meter?
Ha, he read the "VU PPM" as "voompt". That's kinda.... Eh. Also, he keeps saying 3 dB increase is doubling the volume. Bit tricky - 3 dB increase is a doubling of power, but 10 dB increase is a doubling of perceived loudness. Further, 6 dB increase is a doubling of voltage or SPL, which is what I would be inclined to use as a benchmark for this situation (double a track in Pro Tools and the VU meter on the master will show a difference of 6 VU) so I'm not sure that trick is a useful one, or if that guy is even correct in his description of the fundamentals. I would just mix with my ears.
Anyway, I know of no free VU meter plugin but the one he's using in the vid is only 8 euro. Another option you already have (but not plugin) is to temporarily set the master fader's meter to VU. Just right click, choose VU. Calibrate if necessary in preferences. Hofa makes a free meter that can serve this purpose, although it's not a VU meter - it's a loudness meter, but that should work similarly.

Re: AAX VU meter?
I have the klanghelm , and also psp triple meters .
I do prefer the psp triple meters out of the two .., not that there is anything wrong with the klanghelm though, they are both good.
