Vumeter not working in Spat5

Hello there!

I’m using spat5.view and spat5.oper to handle soundtracks sent in spat5.spat object. I’d like to use the vumeter GUI setting from spat5.view or spat5.oper but although both of em show the metering slider, none actually works, meaning that they are always turned off, no audio signal shows up graphically even if the tracks are in play. This is the flow of objects I’m using, would anything else be needed to have vumeter working? Should I connect the tracks to something else rather than spat5.spat(?)

Thank you in advance to anyone that can help!

Hello,

Yes, a bit more work is required. Have a look at tutorial spat5.tuto-viewer-2.maxpat

Hope this helps,
T.
