Ok i finally made my [vu meter](https://www.waves.com/plugins/vu-meter) bridge, but it uses ASIO driver to update ch VU levels. I wish waves finally heard me and made vu over midi/mackie as ALL DAWs do. I cannot understand why they refuse to do it?

This is pretty awesome!. What software are you using to make the meter bridge info to display? Where did you find that display?
