Waves Dorrough Surround
Surround Metering Plugin
Precision Audio Metering for 5.0 and 5.1 Surround
Surround multiplies the options for stunning sound - but also multiplies the opportunities for problems.
It's essential to make sure that peaks aren't creating distortion, average levels have the correct relationship to peaks, and that all the surround channels are mixed as intended.
Working in close cooperation with Dorrough Electronics, Waves has modeled the physics of hardware meters with uncanny accuracy - so that you'll see the truth behind the levels you hear.
