**NOTE: some students have experienced issues with Youlean on master track not working correctly. Perhaps use Reaper's built-in loudness meter plugin instead.

Hello. Regarding Youlean Loudness Meter. You can use it on the master track, but you have to set it from stereo to 5.1. It took me many hours to figure this out:))). Thanks for the tutorials! Really useful information.
