The plugin is very unique in the sense that it gives you full control over all aspects of the modelled circuit. All values of all the capacitors, resistors etc. can be tuned by the user.
This is a free plugin. It comes in all the usual plugin formats (VST/VST3/AU/AAX), for 32 and 64 bit hosts, and for Mac Intel & Silicon.
Realistic vintage Hi-Fi audio LED VU level meter, which shows relative loudness in decibels of the ambient sound, music or your voice. It features fall time selection, alternative VFD or Neon segments and calibration.
With 0.1dB resolution readout, ideal for accurate steady state measurements or for reading peaks however short.
For Windows XP, Vista, 7 or above. Requires WDM drivers, does not support ASIO.
The button to the left of the readout switches the digital readout to follow the maximum peak markers or the instantaneous ‘live’ peaks. In conjunction with the peak hold feature this enables transient peaks to be read accurately.
Zero is referenced to Full Scale Digital, although this can be modified with the calibration adjustment to provide some headroom as required.
Sample rate can be set to match recording if necessary.
Infinite peak hold setting if required, even across program restarts. Reset by double-clicking meter display.
If you need to run multiple meters monitoring more than one source there is a Multi-Channel Level Meter for up to 24 channels.
MonoChannel is a EQ and VU meter with basic console channel controls.
Insert MonoChannel on your audio tracks to monitor your audio signal and adjust its tonal balance. It is designed only to encourage the use of proper gain staging and audio balance workflows in digital audio. MonoChannel is NOT a distortion/saturation/console emulation plugin.
Windows VU Meter is a standalone application that mimics an old stereo’s VU or audio level meters. Designed for Microsoft® Windows Vista® and up (even tested on Windows 7®), the program has no intervening toolbars or window frames to allow the program to allow a clean interface and make it easy to overlay on top of a program you’re using. Features of the program include:
For Microsoft ® Windows Vista ®, and after testing, works with Windows 7 ® as well.
Clean interface that includes no toolbars or window dressings
Ability to select response time of VU Meter, selectable of 150ms or default 300ms. Response time is the amount of time it takes the needles to make a full swing of the gauge.
User selectable interface component coloring. Program saves and remembers settings the next time it’s run.
Option setting to allow always-on setting, allowing the program to be laid over another program that you’re monitoring the audio levels for. An example image.
User option to alter the maximum value of the VU Meter. This is handy for videos or music that were recorded at a lower value. The above example image is an example of this too.
All program options and commands are handled by right-clicking the interface.
Accessible Peak Meter uses real-time sonification to deliver information to the user about audio levels and peaks in audio signals, and so supports core activities in audio production. Accessible Peak Meter 3 is an extended development of Accessible Peak Meter. It adds more meter modes (RMS, EBU, VU/PPM, Truepeak, Dialnorm and Dynamic Range).
Accessible Peak Meter was developed in 2014/2015 at Queen Mary University of London as part of the Design Patterns for Inclusive Collaboration research project ( depic.eecs.qmul.ac.uk ).
USAGE The plug-in comes with the following tweakable parameters:
Sonification Type: to switch between continuous mode , clipping mode and clip tone mode. “Clip tone” sonficates as soon level is above threshold .
Dry: controls the level of the input audio, namely the audio content you want to analyze;
Wet: controls the level of the sonification;
Tone: controls height of the sonification tone in clip tone mode;
Threshold: sets the threshold for the clipping mode, it has no effect on the continous mode
Decay: this only affects the continuous mode sonification. The value ranges from 1 second down to 0.05 seconds. This is the time the meter would take to decay from 0 db to -inf after an impulse. These numbers don’t give a real feeling of how the sonification will sound – it is easier to think that when set to 0.05 the sonification will stop pretty immediately when you stop the audio; whereas if the value is set to 1, it will take longer to decay. In general, though, the latter sounds cleaner and normally the audio level doesn’t go all the way down to silence, as during the decay it encounters other peaks that bring it back up. So it’s up to you to find the right trade off.
DAW sync: if set to “on”, meter reset is synced with DAW start playing. Only applicable for program loudness modes like RMS/EBU/DialNorm IL and PLR
Meter Mode: sets the meter modes. Please to note that all meter modes are calibrated to 0 dBFS, 0 dBTP, 0 LUFS, 0LKFS, 0 VUFS and 0 PPMFS
The AccessiblePeakMeter3 provides access to the parameters by exposing them to inspectors – such as ReaAccess plug-in or the Cakewalk Sonar inspector – in a clear and well formatted way.
GSat+ is derived from the saturation module on the TBProAudio CS5501V2 channel strip plug-in, but adds extra features requested and suggested by the Gearspace.com team. It has several different saturation modes, high tweakability, oversampling, old-school VU meters and cross-platform software compatibility – as well as a button to take you directly to Gearspace.com in case you need any tips, tricks or inspiration or want to swap presets with other users.
Features:
Saturation with three different “tube-based” character modes
Dexed is a multi-platform, multi-format plugin synth that is closely modelled on the Yamaha DX7. Dexed is also a midi cartridge librarian / manager for the DX7.
Features:
Multi platform (OS X, Windows or Linux) and multi format. (VST, AU, LV2)
144 DAW automatable DX7 parameters available from one single panel.
Fully supports DX7 input and output Sysex messages; including controller change. This means that you can use this with a native DX7/TX7 as a patch editor and sysex manager.
Each operator has a realtime VU meter so you know which one is active.
Can load or save any DX7/TX7 sysex programs. It is also possible to save a single program into a different sysex file.
