Wish VU Meters on Axe-Edit

That would be nice, but if it would eat up any dwindling amp modelling resources in the AXFII, i would rather just deal with it, and use meters on the DAW or mixer. The models are king IMO.
 
IIRC, MIDI doesn't support the data speed necessary to give a true VU meter. You'd have to sacrifice the ballistics, and you wouldn't get a true reading.
 
How many bytes/second does it take to transmit a properly-responding VU meter?
the tuner sysex has the note, string and cents for the tuning and is 10 bytes. For the vumeter only the level is required on 1 byte, so 8 bytes for the sysex.
at the same rate (20 messages/s) it should be about 160 bytes/s, of course sent only when a button is activated like the tuner...
