Paul Marshall is a very clever chap - he often posts on uk.tech.broadcast (Google Groups link in menu bar, right hand side). Here are a few stand-alone audio meter apps that just look at the o/p level on the system sound card - you tell it what zero level is (typ. -18dBfs for TV work) and it makes an animated meter (VU, Digital, BBC PPM) that has all the ballistics of the real thing. I've had his dual-PPMs up on screen all day for spoken as well as music content and they are the business!
11th Nov Update - Rupert has got this working with ExpressPro - very neat. In Settings you need to tell the audio tool to use the system mixer - select "mix" or "wave mix" in your Windows mixer tool record setting and you'll be off to the races!
