VU-Meter

To level the audio going to the stream is still a challenge, especially broadcasting from home. You can now find a little helper, an online level meter for the output stream, here:

Please note:

1. This VU-meter is downloading the stream and will process it locally in your browser. This means it will use some bandwidth. (This is why I have set the 64kbit “low” stream as a default value.)

2. There is some obvious time delay from you -> server -> transmission -> your computer -> level meter -> processing / calculation.

3. dB-meters are not the only, and definitely not the best way to measure “loudness”.
