Youlean Loudness Meter helps you find the true perceived loudness of your audio and prepares it for TV or streaming services release.

Join the thousands of recording studios that already use it.

DAW plugin and app

LinPlug Virtual Instruments: Alpha 3 is the small brother of Alpha, but shares the same engine and having fewer features. It's been around since mid 2000, therefore it is free of charge. It also comes with a couple of presets to get you started and the manual of the full Alpha which covers Alpha 3 too. 30) u-he Repro Alpha A prototype to u-he’s full-fledged Repro-1 synth, Repro Alpha is comes loaded with two oscillators, basic modulation, and a lush filter. But, you need to give this synth some time and tweaks to derive the perfect sound for your musical endeavours. Hi, thanks for the A2A. While Steinberg’s update from VST to VST2 was mainly focused on ease of programming for developers, VST2 to VST3 saw the introduction of a lot of new features for end users and a substantial gain in computing and I/O resour.

Works in almost any DAW: FL Studio, Logic Pro X, Final Cut Pro X, Ableton Live, Reaper, Cubase, Pro Tools…

Available as application, VST2, VST3, AU and AAX plugin formats, Windows and macOS operating systems.

Youlean Loudness Meter was the winner of KVR Developer Challenge 2016.

As one of the prizes, the plugin was presented on NAMM Show 2017 in Los Angeles.

Youlean (Julijan Nikolic) is also part of the FL Studio alpha team, and many of his work like Patcher presets and ZGameEditor Visualizer effects are already part of FL Studio.

“Once I learned about loudness metering using LUFS, I was really fascinated. The problem was that the plugins for measuring it were (and still are) really expensive and there were no free ones that can get you started.

So, I have decided to create a free loudness meter that will be even better than the most expensive ones.”

Make sure to sound great on Spotify, YouTube, Apple Music, Apple Podcast, Tidal, Deezer, Netflix, Amazon Alexa, Amazon Music, HBO, Disney+, or when streaming by using AES, or EBU R128 S2 loudness preset.

GUI too small or too large?

No problem, freely resize or scale the plugin!

Experience insane plugin size customization.

If you find graphs too distracting you can always switch to mini mode.

Fit precisely for your workflow.

Inspect what exactly is going on with the audio dynamics.

Using the dynamic range algorithm you can detect squashed or not correctly compressed mix.

Get a quick and complete analysis by dropping an audio or video file on the plugin.

Get results in just a few seconds!

Easily export PDF, PNG or SVG of all your measurements.

In combination with system time coding, pinpoint the loudness problems in live events, or just make a wall poster of your favorite song!

The plugin is calibrated and tested against ITU-R BS2217 testing materials.

It satisfies all requirements defined in ITU-R BS.1770 document.

LUFS

This measurement is basically like RMS but with a twist. It takes into account how humans perceive loudness and it is currently the most accurate way of measuring loudness. The main difference compared to RMS is that LUFS uses filters to shape the sound before processing in a similar way to how we hear the sound.

LRA

This measurement will give you an idea of the difference in volume between the verse, chorus and other sections of your track. If there is a big difference in loudness between the various sections of your track then your loudness range will be a higher number and vice verse.

DR

Dynamic range metering will show you the levels of the compression in audio. The algorithm is based on a difference between true peak and short term loudness. The current implementation is improved version of the “PSR” algorithm which has problems measuring dynamics in audio that has fast changing quiet and loud sections.

TP

Knowing the true peak value is really important since it indicates the true maximum level of audio after conversion to analog or different digital form such as conversion from WAV to MP3. If your audio goes above 0dB TP you might get clipping in converted audio.

Every PRO User gets lifetime FREE updates!

Youlean Loudness Meter will continue to upgrade, many new features are yet to come. Buy once and get all the updates, everything for free.

As new upgrades roll on, plugin price might jump accordingly, so why not take advantage of lifetime FREE updates right now…

“I love audio software, and there are some really cool companies and really cool plugins, but man, there is no worse feeling in the world when you need to PAY for the bugfixes i.e. updates. I really hate that, and I really hate that this is the way most of the audio companies do the business.

This is not how I want to sell the software and that’s why I guarantee the lifetime free updates.”

You can use the plugin on multiple computers as long as these are your personal machines and you are the only user.

This option is not applicable to companies, organizations or schools, they need to purchase a multiple license version.

No, currently the plugin is only doing the analysis, and it can not alter the audio loudness.

This feature might be added in the future though.

Yes, if you are a student or a teacher you can qualify for an educational discount of 30%. You need to contact me before the purchase.

• Parallel Compression

Both direct and compressed signals can be blended as desired

• Signal Matrix

Both the direct and processed signals can be monitored individually or together with the push of a button in each channel (left & right or mid & side)

• Soft Clip Limiter

• Warm Mode

Modeled after the switchable Transformer circuit of the hardware version, the alpha compressor plugin offers very warm and never harsh signal coloration

• Mouse wheel Support

Setting parameters with the mouse can be pretty annoying – for this reason the controllers of the plugin can be moved with the mouse wheel easily
