Overview

The moving-coil display.

Dorrough Stereo models the metering Dorrough Electronics built its name on, showing peak and average level together on one scale instead of leaving you to infer the relationship between them. That relationship is the point, since average level governs how loud something feels while peaks only tell you when it will distort. Three of the most widely used Dorrough meters are modelled, in mono and stereo, at three sizes and three styles, and an Overs LED lights when more than three samples pass 0 dBFS.
