Doepfer

I too like the look of a VU meter in my doepfer rack, but instead of 
buying the AS one I built them myself, all the price of £6.00, yep 
£6.00!!
They are soooo easy to make, takes about 10 minutes, but the cutting 
and drilling of the aluminuim mount takes a while longer.
I made 2 VU meters, one same as ASolutions and one same but with a 
attenuator built in so I can attenuate the signal and see it..all 
good fun!!
