Description : See your sound
PSP Metra is a high-quality, real-time audio analysis and measurement module designed for engineers
who need absolute confidence in loudness, dynamics, and stereo imaging. Designed exclusively as an analysis tool,
Metra never alters the quality of your audio—its sole purpose is to provide clear and reliable information
for making important decisions.
It combines professional-grade dynamics, stereo, and loudness metering in a single, unified interface, including sample
and true peak, PPM, RMS, and VU, dynamic range and gain, stereo correlation and balance,
goniometer and Lissajous displays, and fully standard-compliant loudness metering, including LUFS, LRA,
built-in PLR, PSR, and additional dialogue loudness functions. Everything you need to confidently review modern mixes,
mastering sessions, and broadcasts is always within sight.
Inspired by the clarity of classic plasma meters from the 1980s and built to today’s metering standards,
the PSP Metra combines exceptional visual readability with state-of-the-art loudness compliance,
making it the ideal solution for music production, studio mastering, and broadcast.
See what you’re really hearing
PSP Metra provides a complete picture of your signal in real time:
• Peak, RMS, and loudness metering with selectable ballistics
• Dynamic range and gain monitoring for micro- and macrodynamics
• Stereo image analysis including correlation, balance, and inclinometer displays
• History and waveform views showing sound level changes over 120 seconds
Loudness You Can Trust
Built on industry standards, PSP Metra delivers comprehensive loudness analysis
that meets today’s requirements:
• Momentary, Short-Term, and Integrated Loudness (ITU-R BS.1770 / EBU R128)
• True Peak Detection with oversampling for accurate monitoring of inter-sample peaks
• Loudness Range (LRA) for program-level dynamics
• PLR and PSR for headroom estimation and transient preservation
• Optional Dialogue Integrated Loudness using licensed Dolby Dialogue Intelligence™
for accurate speech-based loudness metering in broadcast and streaming workflows
• Built-in presets instantly configure Metra for platforms like EBU R128, ATSC A/85, Spotify, Apple Music, and more,
so you always know you’re hitting your targets.
Multiple Views, Single Purpose:
PSP Metra allows you to simultaneously display two different measurement panels on the left and right sides of the window.
Each panel can independently display different measurement types, but the same view cannot be active on both sides simultaneously.
Icon-based logic ensures that the display always displays multiple measurements. PSP Metra adapts
to your workflow with dedicated views tailored to different production stages:
• Metra View – Complete overview of level, dynamics, balance and correlation
• Minimal View – Compact dosing tool for everyday mixing
• History View – Visually track levels, dynamics and time distribution
• Protractor and Lissajous views – Detailed control of stereo field and phase
• Loudness and Loudness Value View – Targeted loudness compliance monitoring
• Each view is designed to reduce visual clutter while still allowing important information to be read at a glance.
Designed for professionals
PSP Metra is designed for engineers who need accuracy, not interpretation:
• Stereo and mono operation with advanced mid and side frequency analysis
• Fully customizable scales, colors, and metering mode
• High-resolution, 100% scalable GUI
• VST, VST3, AU, and AAX formats allow seamless DAW integration
Whether you’re balancing a mix, preparing a master file for streaming
, or ensuring broadcast compliance, Metra gives you accurate data without the distraction.
Pure analysis, without coloration.
PSP Metra doesn’t process your audio. It doesn’t clip, compress, or modify your signal in any way.
With the exception of an optional weighted filter monitoring mode (for testing purposes only), what you hear
remains untouched—what changes is up to you.
List of changes :
Version 1.2.1 (March 28, 2026)
Fixed:
• AAX: Fixed an issue with initialization in the AAX communication layer for mono instances.
• Fixed typos in several tooltip descriptions.
Changes:
• Manual update
———————————-
Version 1.2.0 (March 18, 2026)
New:
• Added RMS view with numerical peak and RMS readings, short-term
and integrated RMS measurements, total energy and associated controls.
• Added loudness adjustment indicator in the built-in meter.
• Added a global multiple instances button to select the priority display mode (max or current)
for instantaneous and short-term loudness readouts.
• Added the ability to define a custom default preset for all newly created plug-ins.
• Added the ability to edit the preset name.
Fixed:
• Fixed an issue where readout fields were unintentionally truncated in the Loudness Values view.
• Fixed an issue where slider controls were not responding to manual numeric value entry in Loudness Values view.
• Fixed an issue where Gain was not working in VU mode.
• Fixed an issue where the LU TPMax and LU Target meters in Metra View (Loudness mode) were not keeping up with changes to the Overload head parameter.
• Fixed the display of the lower range of the scale. The minimum time range was incorrectly displayed as 5 seconds instead of 10 seconds.
Changes:
• All RMS measurement buffers are now automatically reset when playback from the DAW is detected.
This does not affect the History View timeline or the data stored in it.
R2R NOTE :
The witch says:
• No iLok driver installation required to run.
• Our release loads faster and uses less memory than the legal version.
