Here’s a short screencast of the VU meters fed by our local NPR stream.Īs tools for measuring audio these meters are perhaps not as useful as the peak LED style meters that I noted in February, but they are nonetheless quite attractive. They can also be set to display the signal from any available sound recording or playback device. They can be set to stay on top of all windows. The meters can be resized from 50%, 100% or 200% of normal size, where normal size is 1500 x 300 pixels. Today I stumbled upon a similar free application called “VUMeter” that provides old school stereo VU meters. Some time ago I noted the availability of installable audio metering for Windows.
