NAME

       jack_meter - Console based Digital Peak Meter for JACK

SYNOPSYS

       jack_meter [ -f freqency ] [ -r ref-level ] [ -w width ] [-n ] [ <port>, ... ]
       jack_meter -h

DESCRIPTION

       jack_meter  is  a  basic  console based DPM (Digital Peak Meter).  I wrote it for quickly checking remote
       signal levels, without having to run X11 to use a pretty graphical meter such as meterbridge.

       The port parameter is optional - when missing then you have to connect up the  meter  to  an  input  port
       manually.  If more than one port is specified then the inputs are mixed.

OPTIONS

       -f  freqency
              How many times per second to refresh the meter. Default is 8.

       -r  ref-level
              The reference signal level for 0dB on the meter.

       -w  width
              The  width  of  the  meter  (number  of  characters). The default is 79, one less than the typical
              terminal width.  -n
              Outputs meter level as a number in decibels instead of a bar graph display.
