don't buy it (or buy it instead of blank plain panel)

lukaszzz 02.01.2021

almost like the pro gear almost no one knows what it does except a small group of geeks; but with this one there is no such group; or a group of peaple fancying blinking light;
it is a waste of money; it looks good, like any other, many leds changing into the rythm, but what does it measure? no one knows; and you can't scale this thing (you have the pots but it is pointless);
but the price for the steel 1U box with a lot of leds is really good - comparable only to blank panels in price/look ratio ;)

Inaccurate.

The scale on the front says 57dB for full-scale deflection. In reality it only takes a signal difference of about 6dB to go from nothing to all LEDs lit.

I had to build and install a calibration board inside the unit in order to make it show a true 57dB difference across the meter.

OTHERWISE, the unit is fantastic and performs its purpose brilliantly now the aforementioned issue was rectified.

Simple and Very Useful for Monitoring Levels !!

Luis Pitti 16.03.2026

The t.racks DBMeter is a very useful tool for quickly checking sound pressure levels in the studio. It’s simple to use and gives clear readings that help control monitoring levels and avoid listening too loud during long sessions.

For studio work, it’s great to keep your listening level consistent, which is very important when mixing or producing music. The device feels solid and does exactly what it’s supposed to do.

A small but very practical tool for any studio.

Another visually appealing addition to my synth rack that makes the whole setup a little more interesting (the other one being the Fun Generation RTA-31 spectrum analyser). The sensitivity controls can be a bit tricky to dial in, though: sometimes it barely catches the louder parts, while other times it seems overly sensitive. I wouldn't rely on it for precise metering, but as a visual aid and a bit of extra eye candy in the rack, it does the job nicely for the price!
