Title: Volume level Bar Graphs for mulitichannel audio?
Post by: FranknKansas on June 29, 2016, 10:09:25 pm

I have looked for a feature that shows individual channel bar graphs corresponding with their output level but haven't found anything.  The closest visual display to that is the analyzer in DSP Studio, which is nice.

Is there another option that would show at a glance which channels, e.g. 2.0, 2.1, 5.0, 5.1, 7.1, have input from a source to JRiver?

Thanks

If you just want to see the number of input channels and output channels, you can get that info (and more) from the Audio path:

Player > Audio Path

This same dialog will appear if you hover your cursor over the "blue light" next to the repeat and shuffle icons in the top right of the interface.

Thanks Brian,

I was wanting a way to conveniently see the individual relative channel levels from across the room.  DSP's analyzer shows the per channel levels in colored text.  I was hoping to see that information in a set of bar graphs, with each bar representing a single channel.  Even nicer would be to have such a graph available in the Action Window as a docked display. 

Such a bar graph is available for foobar.

Is it difficult to build a plug-in yourself?

Thanks for your interest Brian.

I've never tried to write a plugin.  There's a forum and a wiki section on it.

Thanks.  I'll take a look
