Free Peak Meter Vst
Applications
- Fast Fourier transform spectrum analyzer
- Stereo, mid-side, surround spectrum analyzer
- Stereo correlation meter
- EBU R128, K-system meter
- RMS, true peak level and clipping detector
SPAN is a free real-time “fast Fourier transform” audio spectrum analyzer AAX, AudioUnit and VST plugin for professional sound and music production applications.
SPAN provides you with a very flexible “mode” system which you can use to setup your spectrum analyzer preferences. You may specify Fourier block size in samples, FFT window overlap percentage, spectrum's visual slope. Beside that, you can choose to display secondary spectrum of a desired type (e.g. real-time maximum, all-time maximum). Spectrum can be smoothed out visually for an easier examination.
Dec 12, 2020 Similar to the free VU meter plugins above, Klanghelm VUMT emulates analog VU and PPM meters. You can calibrate ballistics and meters up to your liking or use the developers presets. The best way to use the Klanghelm VU meter plugin is to set peak meters for drums and acoustic guitars and VU meter to synths, electric guitars, and bass.
- It is interesting to note that many users find the free SPAN to be just as capable as the SPAN Plus for their needs. But that is more a testament to the excellence of the free plug-in than it is a criticism of SPAN Plus. SPAN Plus is an excellent spectrum analyzer plug-in in more ways than one.
- 12 of the best VST/AU metering plugins. By Computer Music. Although dedicated metering plugins might not be any more accurate that your integrated meters for measuring standard peak and RMS levels, they add all kinds of incredibly useful features, from K-System and True Peak metering to scrolling histograms and adjustable PPM ballistics.

- The 1.1 version of BlueCat's Digital Peak Meter - VST is provided as a free download on our website. The following version: 1.1 is the most frequently downloaded one by the program users. The actual developer of the free software is Blue Cat's Music Software. Also the program is known as 'BlueCats Digital Peak Meter - VST'.
- BlueCat's Digital Peak Meter - VST v.1 1. Blue Cat's Digital Peak Meter VST is a simple yet powerful signal analysis tool that measures the peak value of the signal and lets you record it as an automation curve, as well as the fact that your signal clips ('clipping' occurs when the signal is.

SPAN supports multi-channel analysis, and can be set to display spectrums from two different channels or channel groups at the same time. Spectrum's color can be chosen to taste.

SPAN also features output level metering with adjustable ballistics and integration time, EBU R128, K-system metering (including calibration K-system metering). SPAN displays level metering statistics, headroom estimation and true peak clipping detection. Correlation metering is available as well.
Youlean Loudness Meter
YouLean is featured prominently on my master bus. This plugin will give you real-time updates as to the integrated, momentary, and short term LUFS value during playback. It’s also very useful for keeping your True Peak levels in check.
As you can see on the right hand side of the below screenshot, YouLean actually plots a graph showing the historical LUFS vales of the song.
Brainworx bx_meter
This isn’t a loudness meter as such. It’s a dynamic range meter that uses basic units such as peak and RMS. It’s floating dynamic section is a very good indicator of where on the scale the energy of the song is at any given moment. It is especially useful if you are using the K-System for monitoring and serves as a guide to knowing the dynamics of the song you are mastering. The RMS meter can be calibrated to various frequency weightings as to get a better idea of the loudness relative to full scale as opposed to just simple RMS which is very sensitive to bass.
MLoudnessAnalyzer
A very sophisticated loudness meter that allows you to set a ‘target loudness’ which the meters respond to allowing to visually achieve your LUFS goal. It even features a PLR meter. /free-eq-vst-cubase.html. PLR is Peak to Loudness Ratio, the difference between the integrated LUFS and peak value. PLR is good to know when optimising for loudness normalised streaming platforms.
Klanghelm VUMT
Based on the design of classic VU meters of their time. I personally use this as slow RMS meter, very useful for balancing the louder parts of songs within the context of album mastering. It even features a mono maker for summing everything below a given frequency to mono.
Voxengo SPAN (Stereo Mastering Setting)
This one is always good to look at when you have slight doubts or need validation of the general distribution of energy over the frequency spectrum. Au vst free. Generally speaking, you are looking for a reasonably flat response here rolling off at around 8k. However, this is a huge generalisation and should not be forced out of a given mix if there is energy lacking in some frequency domains. Use it as a reference. The same goes for all meters for that matter.
Orban Loudness Meter
Sometimes I get to the goal quite quickly without the use of meters. Orban is unique in the sense that it’s not actually a plug-in. It’s in fact an app that allows you to get your loudness and true peak levels from a printed mix or master. This saves time as I don’t have to play the song through just to know my LUFS values and such. Good for just checking the numbers after the fact and for comparing tracks.
Meterplugs
Ian Shepherd and the good people at Meterplugs have created a solid range of metering plugins that go way beyond yesteryear’s familiar standards. Their flagship plugins include Dynameter and Perception, helping you find the right balance between loud and dynamic, the sweetspot if you will.
Your Stock Meter
It’s very likely that your DAW features it’s own meters. They will likely give you peak and RMS readings at least. As with all of these plugins, it’s best to start using them with real material and learning how they respond to various types of music. I often drag things from my iTunes library to see what it looks like through the meters I use. This helps me paint a picture of what to work towards, especially when using reference tracks.

There is a lot more to mastering than looking at meters, but it doesn’t have to be rocket science. If you are keen to learn more about mastering, here is a coupon for my Mastering Audio in Logic Pro X Course.
