VU Meter

Digital meters are fine for showing peaks, but an analog VU meter’s moving needle ballistics accurately reflect audio’s average signal level. This correlates far more closely with how our ears perceive musical energy, giving you insight into perceived levels and helping you achieve better mixes and masters.

The challenge for this plugin wasn’t modeling sound, but mechanical realism. That challenge has been met—with the most accurate software emulation ever of the venerable VU meter.
