itunes 11 graphic EQ meters are gone :(

Apple giveth and Apple taketh away. One thing I really liked in itunes was the multiband eq meters, it brought some movement to

a now non moving interface. It be nice if there was a visializer with peak meters to replace what seems to be gone forever.

If I'm missing something please tell me or if anyone knowa of a visualizer with meters and remandation woudl be great.

Sad to see it go that's all, guess I will submit my woes via feedback, other wise itunes 11 seems like a ok facelift.

Also can't seem to play the viualizer in the itunes window anymore and the options are greyed out, when you run the visualizer it goes full screen

just like a full screen app and blacks out your other monitors, not great, so no visualizer unless you go full screen. It be nice if it at least would spand across multiple monitors instead leaving the other monitor black and usless.

Seems you can now stream your purchased songs from the cloud without downloading them which is a plus.

Aonther plus is you hit the green button and itunes window fills your screen, ckick again and it goes to a smaller size.

At the risk of being accused of me-too-ism, I'd like to add that I too am disappointed that the eq display is gone.

But I'll add:

I wonder if Jobs would have gotten rid of it had he still been around.

They wouldn’t have that’s why they got rid of Jobs...

No it hasn't

You-too-ism?

Pretty sure they are likely talking about the VU meter display at top center of iTunes window.

This...

Not if they are looking for the 11 band EQ (as they stated)

The picture in my post has 10 lads plus gain, 11

The picture in your post has far more, but I can only count up to 12 so you'll have to do the counting 🙂

Actually it seems to be a 21 band display, another reminder that Apple is clueless about audio, but it looks nice enough.

Yes! The "VU" meters. That's exactly what I'm talking about. Thank you.

Jul 8, 2015 6:02 PM in response to Csound1

That's the control board. The display is what has the meters, shows you the varying levels in real time.

You-too-ism? It's me-too-ism. In the early days of the Web, many people on AOL would supposedly chime in with "me too" with nothing else in the post. It was looked down upon as a time-wasting nuisance for the reader in the circles I was in at the time.

While we're at it, how about labeling the meters with their peak frequencies?

There are no VU meters to label.

Jul 8, 2015 9:24 PM in response to Chris CA

Yes, I know that. But it's more efficient to ask for both the meters and to label them with their characteristic frequencies than to just ask for one, wait for Apple to put it back, and _then_ ask for the frequency labels, no?
