I spent a few hours at my local pro audio shop looking for a hardware spectrum analizer and nobody could name one. I don't want to spend a lot of money, but it would seem a 1U rack with 50 or so LEDs should not cost that much. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance. -------------------- Spencer K.

Hardware spectrum Audio analizer are much more expensives than softwares. On of the best is KlarkTechnic DN6000. Have a look at http://www.klarkteknik.com/pages/set_products.html -------------------- Plombier, DéZingueur de HP, ferblantier

The analizer pointed out by wfplb seems to be overkill. I really only want cool flashing lights in my studio. I do not need to be able to print readouts and have test tones like that device offers. Any other suggestions.
PS: I really don't want to spend over $250 Canadian. |

Why do I want one? Because my monitors (Spirit Absolute 2s) don't go very deep and I am doing a lot of sub bass reggae influenced work. It would be more convinient to glance to my rack to check out the frequency than to have a plug in running all the time. I am amazed that they are so hard to find or are so expencive. If I'm stuck with a software plug-in, can you reccomend a good free one? I have Steinberg's mastering Edition set but the 2 visual plugins kinda suck.

DOD was making an analyzer like you describe pretty recently - don't know if they're still in production, but they shouldn't be hard to find. I think they were about $350 a couple years ago.
