Product description Assembled to provide you with tools for controlling the dynamics and energy of your audio tracks, the Energy Pack Plug-In Bundle from Blue Cat Audio includes their DP Meter Pro audio meter and side-chaining tool, their Dynamics plug-in, their MB-5 Dynamix multiband dynamics processor, their MB-7 multiband mixer, and the Protector brickwall limiter. They support VST, AU, RTAS, AAX, and DirectX formats on Mac and Windows. - DP Meter Pro Audio Meter and Side-Chaining Plug-In Giving you access you multiple metering options including a wide range of customization, the DP Meter Pro Audio Meter and Side-Chaining Plug-In from Blue Cat Audio features peak, RMS, and crest factor meters in addition to side-chaining control capabilities via MIDI and automation outputs. 5 different metering scales, including Bob Katz's K-System are included by default, with support for creation of your own scales. Your track's statistics are visualized in colored displays with histograms to track its progress over time.
The DP Meter Pro is compatible with mono, stereo, and surround tracks, and features a mid/side switch to check mono and stereo field compatibility. All envelopes can be reused for monitoring or side-chaining applications, recorded as automation curves, or sent as MIDI CC messages. - Multichannel peak, RMS & crest factor meter
- True dynamic range measurement with levels histograms
- Instant, average and maximum audio levels
- Modular user interface to fit into your workflow, with multiple screen sizes
