Software eq and metering for Audirvana 3

[StuartsYoga]

Hi all,

I have a matter of months experience with Audirvana previously using a network audio player via hardware eq to dac and amp.

 

What I am struggling with, I believe, is assessing accurately replay gain for each album I want to listen to.

I know replay gain can be tagged in Audirvana but to my ears gives a poor sound. Also I am using the eq plugin and have bluecat gain plugin for some adjustments. 

 

What the software does not offer ( I believe) is any visual metering plugin to accurately render gain.

 

I have had a bit of a search on our site and see software eq such as Fabfilter pro q 2, Izotope Ozone 8 amongst others. Is that the way to go? Any further suggestions/advice welcomed.
