Example

Stereo level meter using html5's meter element.

`

`js
var AudioRMS = require('audio-rms')

var leftMeter = document.getElementById('L')
var rightMeter = document.getElementById('R')

var audioContext = new AudioContext()
var output = audioContext.createGain()
output.gain.value = 0.4
output.connect(audioContext.destination)

var oscillator = audioContext.createOscillator()
oscillator.connect(output)
oscillator.start()

// modulate audio level
var lfo = audioContext.createOscillator()
var amp = audioContext.createGain()
lfo.frequency.value = 1
amp.gain.value = 0.4
lfo.connect(amp)
amp.connect(output.gain)
lfo.start()

var rms = AudioRMS(audioContext)
output.connect(rms.input)

leftMeter.value = Math.max(-40, getDecibels(data[0]))
rightMeter.value = Math.max(-40, getDecibels(data[1]))

return Math.round(Math.round(20 (0.43429 Math.log(value)) 100) / 100 100) / 100
