Hey guys,
I'm toying around with a tube circuit where the VU meter taps right off of the primary high winding of the output transformer at an unbalanced point. Beyond this stage I have implemented a post transformer line pad on a switch for -18dBu. I want to move the VU meter to read from post the output pad network which is balanced and I'm considering designing a little board for a TL071 meter driver buffer.. I was curious if anyone knew any easier ways to have an analog VU meter read from a balanced line level signal.
Thanks,
