Does the RMS measurement use a weighting filter and L+R summing like your dpMeter again?TB-ProAudio wrote: AB_LM offers following features:
- 4 measurement modes: RMS, RMS +3dB, EBU R128 SL, EBU R128 ML
If so, I consider this a non-ideal use, as this is not according to RMS (raw loudness) specs.
And plugins like this feel like my toenails being ripped out. I mean... is the future really "individual track Gain Staging according to EBU R-128 MLk"? Who started this stupid trend anyway?! That's like the third ITU-R type meterng tool I see that offers "automatic gain settings" according to SLk or MLk, and is being advertised as "per-channel gain staging" and "setup your project accordingly".
Is this the new "you have to use Meter X in order to do it right" as it happened with the K-System Meter (during mixing! ) and the DR-Meter (also during mixing...)?
Not that the EBU R-128 specs can't be used used for anything else other than broadcast levels, but this is taking it to extremes.
