MonitorHUD heads-up display: MONITOR level at -14.0 dB reading 80 SPL, a horizontal level meter, and 5.1, DIM, MUTE, ALT buttons

The monitor section, without the round trip.

Nine assignable hotkeys

Volume up/down, mute, dim, fold-downs, talkback, and level presets, mapped to any keys you like. Control the room from inside any app: your DAW, Video Sync, a browser.

Three calibrated levels

Jump between three user-calibrated listening levels. Mix at your reference level, check quiet, check loud, and land back exactly where you started.

A HUD, not another window

Level, SPL, meters, and monitor state in a compact heads-up display that appears when you touch a control and gets out of the way when you don't.

Light enough to forget

Lives in the menu bar at roughly zero CPU. No dongles, no subscription, and nothing running inside your session.

Heads up: MonitorHUD drives the monitor section of UA Console, so it requires a Universal Audio Apollo interface with UA Console installed. No Apollo, no HUD. That's exactly why it's a separate app instead of part of CueMachine.

One-time purchase.
