Description
Blue Cat’s DP Meter Pro (DPMP) is an advanced audio analysis tool with customizable meters and robust side chaining capabilities via MIDI and automation outputs. It allows users to adjust peak, RMS, and crest factor meters to their preferences, offering default scales like the K-System or the option to create custom ones. Detailed statistics displays and histograms offer insights into track dynamics, while envelope graphs visualize audio progression over time.
DPMP seamlessly integrates into workflows for mono, stereo, or surround tracks, with envelopes adaptable for additional monitoring or side chaining. It adheres to Blue Cat Audio Standards, ensuring compatibility across Mac and Windows platforms with features like MIDI control, customizable UI, and optimized CPU usage. Version 4.32 introduces improvements such as Apple Silicon support for AAX and enhanced VST parameter display.
Customizable Audio Meters
Blue Cat's DP Meter Pro offers highly customizable peak, RMS, and crest factor meters, allowing users to control and monitor audio signals according to their preferences. With five default scales, including popular K-System scales like K-12, K-14, and K-20, users can also create their own scales for tailored metering.
Detailed Statistics Display
The plugin features large colored statistics displays that follow user-defined scales, providing an overview of track dynamics. Histograms offer precise measurements of dynamic range, while graphs illustrate audio envelope evolution over time. Additionally, a mid-side switch facilitates easy verification of mono compatibility and stereoness
Advanced Side Chaining Control
DP Meter Pro enables the reuse of peak, RMS, and crest factor envelopes for additional monitoring or side chaining purposes. These envelopes can be combined, reversed, modified, and recorded as automation curves or sent as MIDI CC messages to control other effects in real-time.
Flexible Workflow Integration
With support for mono, stereo, mid-side, or surround analysis, DP Meter Pro seamlessly integrates into various workflows. Its modular user interface is adaptable to different screen sizes, ensuring user comfort. Moreover, the plugin adheres to Blue Cat Audio Standards, offering full MIDI control and automation support, customizable UI, and efficient CPU usage.
- 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.
- Total control over the metering characteristics, including attack/release shape.
- Bob Katz’s K-System scales support (K-12 / K-14 / K-20 and custom)
- Mono, stereo, mid-side or surround analysis.
- Record measurements (peak, RMS, crest factor, clip etc.) as automation curves.
- Control in real time any MIDI-compatible plug-in or external MIDI device with the generated envelopes thanks to the plugin’s MIDI CC output. See the Tutorials section for more examples.
- Manage the shape of the output envelope: record reversed envelope, change amount of signal, and offset the generated envelope. This lets you use the plug-in for side chain ducking, compression and much more.
- Easy ‘stereoness’ and phase cancelation measurement.
