Quote of the Day

“There’s nothing like getting up in the morning and having your coffee and all of a sudden having this idea and being able to go into the next room and do it. Maybe I’ll work for another hour and do two more takes. Nine times out of ten, that first take is going to be the one that makes it on the record.”- Geoff Tate of Queensr˙che

VU meter

Short for volume unit meter, a meter that is designed to respond to sound in the same way our ears do. Instead of measuring peaks and transients, the VU meter has slower response that shows average levels. It is referenced to +4 dBu at 0 VU and has specific needle ballistics that are set by ANSI (American National Standards Institute).
