realalexz / multimeter

A comprehensive set of AU/VST real-time audio analysis tools in one window implemented with JUCE 6.

MultiMeter

Overview

MultiMeter, an aesthetic AU/VST audio analyzer, caters to audio engineers, producers, and musicians who seek precision and versatility. Leveraging the JUCE framework, MultiMeter delivers a robust array of functions for pristine real-time audio analysis to empower mixing, mastering, and sound design.

User Interface

Note: If you are using MacOS and the meters are not responding to the audio signals, try removing the return keyword in Fifo::getNumAvailableForReading() and Fifo::getAvailableSpace().

Features

General Metering

• Implements a high-performance FIFO (First In, First Out) buffer to efficiently handle audio data between DSP and GUI threads.
• Features a series of comboboxes and sliders to personalize metering behavior, including averager durations and various meter displays.

Level Meter

• Provides instantaneous visual feedback of audio signal levels with support for both peak and RMS readings.
• Displays numeric values of signal levels in decibels, providing precise and quick reference.
• Allows users to adjust the decay rate of meter ticks with multiple responsiveness options.
• Includes the ability to hold peak tick values for a specified duration to enhance the analysis of transient audio material.

Histogram

• Visualizes the distribution of signal level dynamics over time.

Goniometer

• Converts L/R audio signals into Mid/Side representations that provide valuable insights into stereo field distribution and phase relationships.

Correlation Meter

• Provides instantaneous and average correlation readings between left and right channels to help identify phase issues and ensure mono compatibility.

Spectrogram Analyzer

• Boasts a high-resolution spectrogram that displays the frequency content over time across both left and right channels, enabling in-depth spectral balance analysis and identification of potential mix flaws.

Dependencies

• JUCE: 6.1.2

Symbolic links issue

Hello. I just downloaded MultiMeter zip from releases page. I found that MultiMeter.vst3 and MultiMeter.component are symbolic links for non existing directories.
"ls -l" output:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 trynsta trynsta 72 Jun 10 15:01 MultiMeter.component -> ../../../../../../Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/MultiMeter.component
lrwxrwxrwx 1 trynsta trynsta 61 Jun 10 15:01 MultiMeter.vst3 -> ../../../../../../Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3/MultiMeter.vst3

[Feature request] StudioRack integration

It's an open-source plugin manager called StudioRack:
https://github.com/studiorack

The aim of the project is to provide a free open-source way to manage plugin dependencies and their versions. It would involve the following steps:

Publish a Github release containing the plugin source along with metadata plugins.json
Tag your Github repository with studiorack-plugin so it can be discovered
Wait for the studiorack-registry to index your plugin (every 24 hours)
Check the registry feed for your plugin to appear

Linux - Errors when building

Thank you for this interesting plugin.

When trying to build the plugin on Linux, Debian Sid, I got some errors:
