Just curious if anyone has seen any kind of unit out there, that might meet the following requisites.
Spectrum Analyzer
VU Meter (analog / needle kind)
Other kind of digital / levels meter for volume
*basic tone or EQ controls (not strictly required)
limiter
speaker-level input / output (sit between receiver terminals and speakers)
It's all tall order I know lmao.. Basically I just want a really shiny box that reads passively from the final output chain going directly to the speakers... so if I was looking at my fancy readout it would be indicative of volume controls on the receiver itself, not the incoming source, etc. Or have I misconstrued how a tape in/out loop works?
The actual EQ'ing and limiting features aren't strictly required because I could use a DSP for those, but if the box did stored presets, etc then that would be cool.
At the end of the day I need more fancy dials and gauges to go ADHD about when I play music.
I see lots of parts listings for various meters and controller boards and stuff on ebay, so I am guessing this is probably something I would have to learn how to build myself if I want all these features in one box at a price I could afford...
