LVC-Meter is a free metering plugin designed to enhance audio monitoring with advanced visualization tools. It features a spectrum analyzer, stereo vectorscope, and waveform history display, all employing true-peak monitoring to accurately detect intersample peak levels. This ensures precise identification of overs, crucial for mastering and mixing processes. The plugin supports multiple metering standards, including EBU mode, K-System metering, and standard dBFS mode, allowing it to adapt to various professional audio workflows.

The interface includes three essential controls: GAIN, BALANCE, and WIDTH, with additional fine-tuning options accessible through right-clicking the knobs. This enables users to make detailed adjustments for optimal gain staging and stereo positioning. The plugin’s design emphasizes flexibility, featuring a resizable interface and customizable colors to suit individual preferences and working environments. These features contribute to a streamlined and efficient metering experience.

LVC-Meter offers configurable spectrum analyzer settings such as window type, FFT size, and overlap, providing users with control over frequency analysis precision. It also incorporates a 32-bit dithering process called FloatDither, enhancing audio quality during processing. An XML-based preset system allows for saving, importing, and exporting user presets, making it easy to maintain consistent settings across projects. This combination of detailed metering tools and user customization makes LVC-Meter a valuable asset for audio professionals seeking accurate and adaptable metering solutions.
