Reflex Acoustics has announced an update to its free effect plugin that lets you monitor your dynamic range across the frequency spectrum.

The Reflex Dynamic Range Meter helps you visualize the dynamics in your signal, by showing the real-time loudness distribution of grains of sound.

The spectrum is also broken up into eight frequency bands, each with its own analysis display.

Changes in Dynamic Range Meter v1.1.1

  • Improved Peak loudness detection (time resolution remains unchanged at 33ms).
  • Improved graphical statistical display.
  • Adjustable GUI size.
  • Adjustable waveform brightness.
  • Added Pulse view showing how loudness changes across the duration of each beat or bar.
  • Added the ability to solo individual bands.
  • Removed crossover filter options; replaced with new hybrid filter design that offers perfect reconstruction and near linear phase performance with optimized latency (13ms if solo function engaged).

Dynamic Range Meter is free to download in VST3 and AU plugin formats for Windows and Mac.
