PreSonus VU Meter Free Download Latest Version for Windows. It is full offline installer standalone setup of PreSonus VU Meter Crack mac for 32/64. PreSonus VU Meter Overview The VU Meter plug-in provides the best of both worlds for your signal metering needs: Analog-style VU meters (with clip indicators), and LED-segment-style. Here is a handy.
Displays a volume unit meter on your desktop that shows the audio signal level for both left and right channels, with color customization options
VU Meter is an interesting application that acts like a virtual audio level meter. It imitates the volume unit meter of an old stereo, displaying volume indicators on your desktop.
Displays the audio signal level
The application is similar to a sidebar gadget, since its interface does not take much desktop space and you can move it around wherever you want to. It displays a real-time representation of the audio signal level for both the left and the right audio channels.
Right-clicking anywhere on the main interface reveals a menu that enables you to allow the variable maximum value, as well as reset it to 0, 20 or 40. This comes in handy when listening to audio streams that were recorded at a lower value.
Various customization and configuration possibilities
By default, the meters are displayed in black and white, but you can fully customize their appearance via the 'Options' window. VU Meter enables you to change the color of every element for each meter, starting with the background and continuing with the pointing needle, the arc of the meter, major and minor lines or the displayed text.
There are various other settings that you can configure. The meters can be displayed either horizontally (side by side) or vertically (on top of each other) and the response time (the duration of a full swing across the gauge) can be changed from the default value of 300 ms to just 150 ms.
Optionally, you can instruct the application to stay on top of all the other opened windows, which enables you to overlay it on top of any audio processing program and monitor audio levels.
Displays an old volume unit meter on your desktop
VU Meter is designed with simplicity in mind, aiming to accurately display the level of audio signals processed by your computer's sound card. Its clean interface makes it very easy to use, while the customization options help it blend with the desktop theme or background.

Device Overview
| Name/Version: | VU Meter 1.0.1 |
| Author: | Funkatronics |
| Description: | An Ableton-esque VU meter that tries to model the behavior of older analog VU meters while adding some more modern features. It is essentially an RMS meter with a long attack/release time that is useful for gain staging and quick leveling of tracks. Features a channel split mode for viewing the left/right or mid/side channels simultaneously, nominal (reference) level adjustment, adjustable attack/release, a floating window, and a proper L/R phase correlation meter. Note: this is not a loudness meter and therefore not the proper tool for measuring the loudness of your mixes. For loudness measurements, check out my Loudness Meter device here: http://www.maxforlive.com/library/device/5005/loudness-meter Changelog 1.0.1 - 2018-09-12 Fixed - Issue where the device would hijack/corrupt Live's undo history 1.0.0 - 2018-04-03 Added - Initial Release The above format is based on Keep a Changelog (http://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/) and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning (http://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html). |

Vu Meter For Mac
| This is really useful. Unfortunately, when it is running it fills up the undo list in Live with Change 'live.numbox[8]'. |

| Hey, love love love the meter, but its as Bubbleandsquawk said, when running it somehow is hooking into the UNDO function. so while its running, say if you delete a clip or anything that should be undoable by command /control -Z, you are unable to because the undo buffer is filled with the VU meter activity. Can u take a look sometime? Its a brilliant and super useful max device, but ruined by this one bug. thanks in advance! |
| @bubbleandsquawk and bonkorama, sorry for the delay, I will look into this issue ASAP! |

V.u. Meter For Mac Computers
| I believe I have fixed the issue with the undo history getting borked. Try out version 1.0.1 and let me know how it works for ya. Sorry again for the delay on this bug fix! Funkatronics |

| There's still a numbox filling up the undo |
| Hey, great device! I use it for gain staging. Noticed a possible bug though. When extending the plugin to split the left and right channels it seems like the right channel is giving an incorrect reading when viewing from the rack. However, it gives the correct reading when you open the plugin itself... Here's an example. Using version vu-meter 1.0.1 with Live 10.1 on MacOS 10.14.5. https://imgur.com/a/OFyT1l5 |
| Same for mid/side too actually. |
| Hi @bigwitch. Sorry for the bug you are experiencing. I have been trying to reproduce this issue so I can find a fix, but I am not able to replicate what you are seeing. Without reproducing the problem, it can be really difficult or impossible to debug these sorts of issues. Also, I am a Windows user, and don't have access to a Mac for testing/debug. Hopefully this isn't a Mac specific problem. Could you send me a simple Live set that reproduces the issue using stock Ableton plugins (just to make sure I have the right instruments to run the set)? You can send it to my email at funkatronicsmail@gmail.com. Sorry I can't be of more help at the moment, I would like to get this issue fixed for ya. Thank you for the feedback and for using my device! I really appreciate it! |

External Vu Meter
| Hi @Funkatronics, Just tried to make a Live Set for you but I was unable to reproduce the error. Everything seems to be running perfectly now. Must have been something to do with my version of Live as that's the only thing I have changed (I'm now running 10.1.14). Unfortunately, I did not give the subversion number last time so unsure which version might have been causing the issue so sorry about that. Thanks again! |
