Surround MultiMeter
Surround MultiMeter overview
The surround version of the MultiMeter is specically designed for analysis and metering of
multichannel surround les. You can view either the Analyzer, Goniometer, or Correlation Meter
results in the main display area. Use the controls on the left side of the window to switch the
view and set other MultiMeter parameters. The (Peak/RMS) Level Meter is visible on the right.
Although you can insert Surround MultiMeter directly into any channel strip, it is more
commonly used in the master channel strip of Logic Pro—when you are working on the overall
surround mix.

Surround MultiMeter Analyzer mode
In Analyzer mode, Surround Multimeter’s main display shows the frequency spectrum of the
input signal as 31 independent frequency bands. Each frequency band represents one-third of an
octave. The Analyzer parameters are used to activate Analyzer mode and to customize the way
that the incoming signal is shown in the main display.
