TC offers several different versions of its Radar Loudness Meter – the LM6 is available for System 6000 MkII, DB4 MKkII, DB8 MkII, TM7 and TM9 hardware units, while the LM2 is a stereo version bundled with the LM2 hardware unit. LM5D is a TDM plug-in for Pro Tools HD, and now the company has launched LM6 as a VST, AU, RTAS and AAX Native plug-in.
The various versions of Radar Loudness Meter originate from the same basic algorithm, and is designed for the same purpose – delivering the best possible loudness overview of any audible source. To ensure seamless transition between platforms, TC has introduced xApp technology to allows these versions to be completely consistent with regard to core features across all available versions.
The Radar Loudness Meter will display exactly the same descriptor numbers – for example, Loudness Range and Program Loudness when identical programme material is being measured by either one of the LM6 plug-in formats or the versions that run on TC hardware.
Version updates – in connection with updates of significant international broadcast standards such as ITU BS.1770-2, ATSC A/85 and EBU R128 – will be streamlined across all radar Loudness Meter compatible platforms.
