Use the free VUplug for audio metering from our colleagues at musicIO

In case you didn't know already, musicIO is the best solution for MIDI and Audio using a regular Lightning-USB cable.

How Can I Get a Meter Control in MIDI Designer?

  1. Create a Slider 
  2. Change the Display Option to Meter

    Properties -> Display Options -> Meter
  3. Also works for Crossfaders! (change type in actions)

Can anyone provide instructions on how to get this to work with MainStage?
by maddcow (400 points)
From our own discussion here -- http://mididesigner.com/qa/581/midi-echo-or-feedback-in-logic-or-mainstage -- I think that, unless we're missing something with Mainstage, this won't work. Mainstage doesn't allow for host automation, it seems. Or rather, doesn't allow for host automation ANYMORE, since it used to, right?
