cheap rackmount VU meter?

[Jason Lavoie]

looking for a relatively cheap rackmount VU meter. preferably LEDs.
it's just to help an operator in one room tell if the level going out to another room is in the right ballpark so it doesn't have to be super accurate, just precise.

ideas?

I've used one and it works. RCA inputs only.

However while I never pulled the signal generator out I think it meters in 3 LED segments.

Yes and it creates a great light show in your rack too... Bennett maybe we should move this thread to lighting... lol

I don't know about cheap, but Dorrough are kind of the de facto standard for meters.

For 60 bucks it's cheaper than most of the Funk Logic filler panels! I would venture to say that most who buy that use it like
a light show!
