What about Klanhelm's VUMT? Check it out here: http://klanghelm.com/cont../products/VUMT/VUMT.php

Good 'un, and Tony's apparently updating the GUI as we speak.

Thanks guys - I actually have Hornet, VUMT, and Waves Dorrough. Problem is they won't perform a tap to show me the gain reduction between two points in a chain. I'll take a look at analyzer again though.
 
Pro Tools HD actually has a gain reduction meter built into it's interface - pretty cool. In this video at 9:29 you can see the gain reduction meter working - it's small but it's at the top of the four right-most green buses. This allows you to set up compressors on these buses and easy see how much compression you are applying as you feed the buses.

I went through my collection of compressors to see which of them don't have a GR meter. I could only find one that didn't (Cakewalk Compressor/Gate). Which compressor are you evaluating?

Hi bit,
 
It'ms more complicated than that, and then again it isn't. :) I'm trying the Braerizing mixing technique which consists of a bunch of compressor buses that you push your mix elements into. I could have all of the comps up but they would take a bunch of space so I was looking for another option. I'm finding this entire process more complicated than necessary, and I'm close abandoning it. Ordinarily, I go for complicated stuff, but I have my limits! :)
