21/30. #inkyapril Reference: Dave Hoefler Yeah it sucks. On the way home the fog was really thick along I680. I80 was even worse. By the time I took the Gretna exit, I couldn’t see the lights at the Wickersham intersection until I was practically upon them. The same for the lights at 168th. The closer I got to home, the denser it became. Don’t get me wrong, it was pretty in a scary kind of way. I was driving a good 15 miles under the speed limit in fear that some critter - possibly a deer - would be out and about and I wouldn’t see it until too late. I wanted to reproduce that effect in the photo reference, but I’m afraid I wasn’t up to the task. It isn’t exactly something you can draw... not really. Or at least I can’t. Maybe someday I’ll try again and look back on this piece to see real progress. https://www.instagram.com/p/CcmoDDVOoUM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

So there's an interstate that goes through the city I live in (Omaha. Come find me, I dare you. I'll give you a hug.) and there's a creek with a walking trail that runs under it. Know what else is under it? The nests of dozens and dozens of cliff swallows. I actually really enjoy bird watching so I try to make it out here on my lunch walks to watch these guys wheel around.

Since 2001 not updated - Since 2001 not updatedBut it's nice vu-meter parameterizable - August 6, 2009 by accbster
Just what I needed - I was looking for a VU meter to complement Nucleo_Nlog_v102_ skin and found this. Then I made a skin for it using art from Nucleo. Have a look:http://i680.photobucket.com/albums/vv161/el_dino/NUCLEO%20VU%20meter/VUNucleo.jpg - March 17, 2009 by eldino 1
very nice, now better then Aimp2 - the only bad thing is the development is freezed and so you can't change Needlecolour, NeedleWidth, and so on. Would be nice for better self made VU-Meter skins ;-) - December 8, 2008 by ALEX Vercetti
doesn't work - Can't get it to display...when loading the plugin the window just flashes on and then disappears. How are you guys getting this to work? Tried multiple times uninstalling and reinstalling. - December 1, 2008 by Michael Ludwig
similar to what I am looking for - What will make it cool is to make it look like a McIntosh power amp Blue meterhttp://www.mcintoshlabs.com/http://www.mcintoshlabs.com/products/mcintosh-mc12kw-1200-watt-power-amplifier.aspThanksRick - April 24, 2008 by Rick Cheng
WOW! nice - pefert - April 20, 2008 by soon peng
nice - this is verry cool. looks nice near my equalizer. still... one question: can i configurate this so it can start when i start winamp? not when i press play, not when i press start plug-in! i want it to start when i start winamp! thanksps: i made 2 compatible skins for the vu.. compatible with 2 classic winamp skins... how can i post them? - April 20, 2008 by a b
???????? - This plug-in just seems to be a bunch of HTML, JPG and GIF files. I can't find a DLL file for it anywhere and so of course a bunch of pix of VU meters isn't gonna magically turn into a viz in Winamp. What am I doing wrong. - April 7, 2008 by Daniel Rueben
vu - nice plug.... - November 25, 2007 by tony argy
Nice Try but only basic - i cannot place the window anywhere else, it has to be displayed on top, left, right or bottom of the main WinAmp-Window. No support for docking on other Windows (Playlist or Equalizer). The Main function does it work good and it is the first Visual that allows me to see the parts of a mp3 that are too loud. - November 8, 2007 by Richard Wroblewski
Not bad but take care - This is not a bad little plugin with a good pleasant meter. however remember when you right click on the face of the meter, don;t mess around with 'panel', cos it crashed my winamp. - May 4, 2007 by Edmund Tan
Super - Alt und gut! - January 4, 2006 by Juergen wickert
GOOD but still have to work on it... - good job, keep up the good work and make this work along with winamp5 (current vers works only with big panels). I highly appreciate the precision and I sugest to make a modern skin (I have in mind reel to reel ZDL analog studio) to fit with the plugin or viceversa whatever you like it:) - September 27, 2005 by Firekeeper 1
VU accuracy - As an old radio guy I really appreciate these meters. Well done.GOOOD, Good good. I sit and stare at the screen watching the meters.Thank you.www.deantiernan.com - March 6, 2005 by Dean Tiernan
Wow - I have always been a fan of VU meters, one of the reasons why I like Modern Skins. However, some of the Modern skins with Vu's are just ugly, and the VU meters are not too accurate. I have always like the way that Classic skins look and I have wished that there was a VU meter on them. This plug-in fulfills that request - September 14, 2004 by the bonehead
Best help for recording - It was not until this analog VU meter that I noticed the 10 dB difference in output level between CD's. The VU are a bit nervous compared to the real (yes, still have them) ones. But, over all, this plugin is for me the reason to go back to Winamp 2. Skins are thrilling. Hope you can make more and bigger ones.. - August 10, 2003 by Joop van Steijn
GREAT AND ACCURATE .!!!. - IT IS A GREAT PLUG IN. IT INTEGRATES PERFECTLY WITH NUCLEO_NLOG_V102 SKIN AND IT IS VERY ACCURATE TOO. A TRULLY FINE JOB. - April 22, 2003 by Lorien King
New WEB site with many skins and panels... - http://www.qsl.net/lz1bjr/vu/index.htmHere you can find more skins and panels for VU meter!Regards,Boris - February 28, 2003 by Boris Ribov
Best VU Meter I've ever used - Man, this is the best VU meter out there. It would be nice if it could capture the elements from the Winamp skin the user is currently using, but I kinda like it the way it is. Excellent!!!! - February 25, 2003 by Professor Tom
Skins and Winamp 3! - May be you can do this great thing for Winamp 3! That would be great!And maybe you could make a skin, that is styled more independant, so that it doesn't *grmpf* with any other WA Skinz - December 8, 2002 by Marcel Schroeter
Skins - Internal skin is best but want more - June 6, 2002 by Antony Smith
Not under XP - Doesn't work under Xp - but it's my favorite! Hope it can be made to work...Thanks! - May 16, 2002 by Dennis Hill
WOW! - What can I say?!! - March 7, 2002 by Ani Savage
TNX - It gave to me not only good memories, but more good feelings. TNX - November 25, 2001 by Toni Angelov
Best - Best that I ever seen, but I want more VU designs, like reversed ones, verticale ones and more. - November 25, 2001 by Marian Johnes
Hey, Great! - Gread old style. It gaves to me good memories.... - November 23, 2001 by Dimo Filev
Good... - Good work my friend. I'll be waiting for a new version. - November 23, 2001 by Danny Morati
Hey... - ...it's cool! - April 7, 2001 by Anders Str�m
Great Plug-in for WinAmp! - That looks veri nice and it moves exactly with the rhythm. Very good work BoardMan!!! - April 5, 2001 by J T
Great, Simply The Best!!! - That's fantastic plugin for my favourite mp3 player WinAmp!!! It looks like the old analog stereo meters and that's why it's so cool!!! I like it very much and i hope so that the author will continue to invent other plugins like that!!! Good Luck, BoardMan!!! - April 1, 2001 by Krasi Makaveev
Super realistik - I`m very surprised that there is a fans for analog (clasic) gadget - April 1, 2001 by Dimitar Kolev
VU meters are crucial during mixing and mastering sessions, coming as both hardware and software units.
Every professional studio has a VU meter among their studio equipment.
Most upcoming producers don’t have such a tool in their recording studio and use VU meter plugins instead.
And this is the list of 3 best free VU meter plugins on the market.
But first, let’s quickly look into what VU meter is and why you need to use one when mastering a track.
VU Meters In Recording Studios
Before we go over the 3 best free VU meter plugins every producer should use during the mixing and mastering stages, let’s find out what VU meters are, where they are coming from, and why you need one in your music studio.
What Are VU Meters?
VU meter is a measuring tool that indicates the average level of audio signals.
Mainly, you need VU meters or VU meter software for two reasons.
Firstly, they have the ability to hear the loudness just like our ears do.
Secondly, they’ll make you leave some space in your track.
It’s called headroom, and it’s crucial to leave for the mastering stage (if you are mixing at the moment).
Vu Meter For Windows Media Player
If you don’t have any headroom, you’ll likely mess up the mastering track and eventually the entire track.
Therefore, make sure to use VU meters or VU meter plugins in your DAW.
If you’d like to go all-in, here is the best VU meter on the market!
If you can’t afford one, you can always use the free VU meter plugins below!
What Does “VU” Mean In Audio?
“VU” stands for volume units. It’s been with radio broadcast equipment since the early 1940s.
You’ve probably seen it a million times in the movies and TV shows but didn’t know that was the hardware VU meter.
Why Use VU Meter and VU Meter Plugins?
A lot of the time music producers will only monitor the audio peaks to prevent listeners from flinching.
What they forget about is that humans are not computers and we hear loudness differently.
For instance, our ears only feel the average sound level, not the peaks.
And unlike a peak meter that monitors for top volume spikes, VU meter and VU meter plugins show you the so-called average volume.
What Does RMS Stand For in Music?
RMS in music stands for Root-Mean-Square.
In math, It’s the effective value of the complete waveform, also known as average from the square root of the signal voltage over time.
Free Vu Meter For Windows
RMS is the music power that the amplifier can deliver in a continuous manner, more generally known as “average level.”
VU Meter or PPM for Mastering?
Of course, it would’ve been a lot nicer to focus on one of the two – either VU or PPM.
However, both are significant when it comes to mastering, and you can’t do one without another.
Peak meters (PPM) and peak meter plugins (PPM plugins) will prevent any sorts of digital distortion which can ruin your track if you aren’t careful.
What will happen if I don’t use VU meter and PPM?
You can get clicks here and there, but once the volume is above the hard limit, the distortion will become horrible.
The meters are easy to use because the concept is straightforward – once your meter is in the “red” zone, lower the volume until it gets back into the green area.
This can’t be simpler.
VU meters (RMS) and VU meter plugins (RMS plugins) indicate how loud a sound feels in real life.
As a result, you’ll be able to tell how much space a sound takes in the mix.
If mixing two tracks, the VU meter plugin can be really helpful to determine how loud they are relative to each other.
If you were only to use a peak meter, you could have noticed some differences between the two but wouldn’t be able to see the bigger picture.
Example of VU meter vs Peak meter
If you look at the lower end of the frequencies range, you may notice your drums and bassline peaking at a similar volume of X dB.
Therefore, peak meter will only show the moments of the track when the drums and bassline get over the peak volume into the “red” zone.
What escapes your sight is the fact that the waveforms of the two are different.
Drums peak for short periods of time and the average loudness of the drum kit is a lot lower than its peaks.
The bassline is entirely consistent, with low transients that peak close to the average volume levels.
As a result, you’ll only be able to hear loud bass and maybe some quiet drums in the back, instead of having them equal.
VU meter will show you the actual picture of what’s going on with the track.
Tumblr media
You’ll be able to see the loudness of the sound continuously.
Therefore, you’ll notice how the loudness of the bassline is consistently higher and fix it.
In order to do that, you set them at X db with VU meter or RMS, so they sound well-balanced to a listener’s ear.
Why use a VU Meter Plugin?
Clearly, you’ll need to monitor average volume level to prevent your track from sounding muddy and avoid distortion.
And using VU meter VST plugin can save you a lot of time and fixing things during mastering stages.
Waves Free VU Meter Plugin
Every DAW usually has a peak meter on each mixer slot, which helps a ton to see whether some elements of the track are too loud and peak to avoid distortion.
Well, Waves has released a free VU meter plugin that replicates the hardware VU meter unit.
VU meters have been around for decades and used to set proper recording levels, achieve well-balanced mix, and leave sufficient headroom.
The goal of Waves VU meter plugin is to assist you in achieving optimal sound levels, enough headroom, and a cleaner mix.
As mentioned earlier in the article, Waves VU meter helps you to not only monitor the loudest moments of your track a.k.a. peaks, but also average out the overall audio levels by imitating the way our ears work.
You can expect smooth performance and fantastic response from this free Waves VU meter that was designed to clean your mixes up from the muddiness and congestion.
As you already know, the VU meter VST can be used on individual tracks and master busses.
Everything depends on which stage of the mixing session you are at right now.
Does Waves VU meter plugin works on both Mac and PC?
Yes, Waves VU meter works on PC and Mac and comes in VST, AU, and AAX formats.
mvMeter2 Free VU Meter Plugin
This free VU meter plugin offers outstanding performance. The mvMeter2 VU meter is nothing more than a small window in the corner of your workstation monitor to look at it once in a while or with your peripheral vision.
It includes RMS, EBUR128, VU, and PPM, so you don’t even need to look at the peak meter in your mixer tab.
It imitates the analog VU meter and PPM meter.
You can switch between various measuring tools with a simple arrow in the corner of mvMeter2 free VST.
You can also adjust the display to show either one or two meters, up to your liking.
TBProAudio mvMeter2 free VU meter plugin lets you change meter delay and reference levels, which can come in handy at times depending on the goals of your mixing session.
What’s mvMeter2 VU meter capable of?
The signal is being processed in 64-bit, and GUI can expand up to 400%, so even music producers with 4k displays won’t have issues with the image clarity.
If you care about the aesthetics of your DAW interface, you are free to choose from 5 different themes.
Lastly, mvMeter2 VU meter plugin is free of charge.
For most beginner beatmakers and music producers, this is crucial, as they don’t feel like paying $50+ for a VU meter plugin that they may not like or utilize to its full potential.
mvMeter2 free VU meter plugin works with both Windows and Mac OS and is available in VST, AU, AAX, and RTAS to suit everyone’s needs.
LVLMeter Free VU Meter Plugin
This Free VU meter plugin imitates vintage VU meters that were used back in the late 1970s.
That’s where the design is coming from.
If you’ve ever seen an old movie where the action took place at a radio station or a studio, you must’ve seen the VU meters.
The signal of the samples can be processed in both 32 and 64 bits.
LVLMeter free VU meter plugin works on both PC and Mac computers, and with VST, AU, and RTAS hosts.
Klanghelm VU Meter Plugin (Honorable Mention)
Klanghelm VUMT which is also known as VU meter plugin is fantastic to use on separate tracks, mix busses, or during the mastering stage.
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.
The first category is transient rich instruments, and the second one is the ones with a sufficient amount of sustain.
Its metering modes include essentials such as RMS, VU, and PPM.
There is a lot of tweaking you can do with this VU meter plugin.
The ballistics, for example, are fully customizable.
You also get trim control, so gain staging gets easier.
GUI setting is also customizable, and you can make it look the way you want it, up to your aesthetic preferences, with 8 skins included.
Klanghelm VU Meter Plugin works on both Windows and Mac OS and comes in VST, AAX, AU, and even Standalone formats.
I put Klanghelm VU meter plugin under the “honourable mentions” tag because it’s not actually free – it costs 12 Euro.
It’s nothing for most producers, but if you don’t feel like buying a plugin today, keep Klanghelm VUMT in mind.
Commonly Asked Questions About VU Meter Plugins
To make sure you’ll leave with as few question as possible, here are a few common questions upcoming beatmakers, artists, and producers ask about VU meters
Don’t most DAWs like Ableton, Logic and FL Studio have VU meter VST Plugin Built-in?
I am not quite sure about Ableton, but FL Studio does have a plugin called Wave Candy that can somewhat compare to a VU meter plugin.
However, the free VU meter plugins on this list were explicitly made to monitor the average loudness levels (RMS).
But you can definitely use the built-in Wave Candy free digital VU meter plugin wannabe if you don’t want to install more plugins.
Will the free VU Meter plugins work with Windows?
Yes, the free VU meter plugins on the list are all supported by all primary digital audio workstations and will work with Windows.
Will the free VU Meter plugins work with my Mac?
All free VU meter VSTs support AU format that will work on Mac-based DAWs such as Logic and Pro Tools.
Conclusion: Free Vu Meter Plugins
Hopefully, this list of best free VU meter plugins helped you to learn more about what VU meters are and why they are crucial for every beatmaker and music producer.
