If not set, it will use the default device for the specified Port. Specifies whether you want to measure the input or output levels for the given device. Parent measure options Port Default: Output Options General measure optionsĪll general measure options are valid.

Parent measure options may not be changed dynamically. Note: Only the Type, Channel, FFTIdx and BandIdx child measure options can be changed dynamically with !SetVariable or !SetOption. This child measure gets the current RMS value of the right channel (0.0 to 1.0). This child measure gets the current RMS value of the left channel (0.0 to 1.0). Example: This parent measure processes the default audio output.

A single 'parent' AudioLevel measure is used to obtain and analyze the audio stream, and then as many 'child' measures as desired request data from the parent to get individual values to display in meters. UsageĪudioLevel operates with a 'parent / child' approach. While the plugin is quite resource friendly and efficient, some care should be taken when deciding how much analysis should be done on the signal, and it is recommended that this plugin be used in a skin dedicated to it, and not as a part of a larger skin where the low update rate may cause higher CPU usage. Note: Creating meters that display sound levels in real-time will require that the skin be set with a fairly low Update rate in the section of the skin. The resulting volume level is returned by the plugin for use in Rainmeter measures and meters. The capture client streams audio data to the plugin where it can be filtered and measured. sound card speaker output, USB audio interface, headphone port, microphone input) It does this by creating a WASAPI capture client in loopback mode. The plugin monitors the amplitude of the post-mixer signal at a Windows audio endpoint. This can be used to create a volume level VU Meter for defined channels, or optionally can filter the audio stream into distinct frequency bands to create a Spectrum Analyzer. The value returned will be a number from 0.0 to 1.0, which will be treated as a percentage for use in meters. Plugin=AudioLevel monitors and analyzes streams of audio sound to or from an audio endpoint.ĪudioLevel will monitor, filter and analyze the amplitude (volume level) of sound input or output on the default or defined device and channels.
