This is nice 
I have tested around 8 socalled vu-meters for pulsar. From what I can see by feeding them with sine tones from the controll room device, they are far from acurate - and wether they can be called VU-meters is also often questionable. Often they are peak meters with a wrong name.
If you ever plan on modifying the design, I think it would be nice to be able to boost the VU-meters by a userdefinable amount of dB. If this is done, it would also be nice to have the meter max at +6dB. Another suggestion would be to add 2 more continous "read outs?" above the 2 with the RMS value. These could show the Crest factor.
Anyway - don't take my suggestions as bad critique. I am very happy, that you made this device.
