3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: foo_vis_spectrum_analyzer
Last post by pqyt -As for RMS - I just made a live comparison of readings while playing a track and it was like that:@wojak, would you please download one of the test files from https://www.soundonsound.com/techniques/sos-audio-test-files, preferably one with a dBFS number on the file name (e.g. 1_mono tone 1kHz -20dBFS 44k.wav or 19_Pink Noise stereo 20Hz_20kHz -23dBFS 44k.wav) and let us know what readings you get with other plugins?
- your component with +3 disabled showed the same values as VST TT Dynamic Range Meter and the same as VST dpMeter5 and the same as VST Span (that one with DBFS+3 set). If I changed Span to DBFS (without +3) it showed 3 more than all the others (inluding yours which was with +3 disabled). So it seems (again judging by eye) that your RMS set to 0 shows what other show and when set to +3 it shows different values than others.
So to me (as an amateur) it seems that Peaks now are OK and RMS might be too high by 3. Or in other word: to make all those 4 meters show the same values I have to set yours to 0 (+3 disabled) and Span to DBFS+3. Other two do not have those options to change but show the same values.
