dpMeterXT2
Product description
dpMeterXT2 is a loudness metering plugin and application fully compliant with the EBU R128-2014, ITU-R BS.1770-4, ATSC A/85 and several other regionspecific loudness standards.
dpMeterXT2 is the sucessor of dpMeterXT.
dpMeterXT2 supports multiple channel configurations, from 1.0 up to 9.1/10.0, depending on your system configuration or DAW capabilities.
It features large readouts, meters, graphs, loudness/peak prediction, measurement history and datalogging.
With dpMeterXT2, you can define the measurement parameters in a very detailed way (i.a. integration time, gating levels, filter).

dpMeterXT2 displays IL, SL, ML, LRA, PLR, PSR and Peak/Truepeak levels with switchable channel configrations.
Loudness history graph including reports and data export
dpMeterXT2 displays loudness/dynamics values as graph over time including loudness distribution. dpMeterXT2 has a loudness and peak prediction mode that makes gain changes easy to see. Additionally it can store the measurement data for further comparision.
Loudness match and TP limiter
dpMeterXT2 inlcudes loudness matching (IL, SL/ML Max) and a TP limiter. This makes it easy to reach desired target loudness with one clich while maintaining TP limit.
