Getting Volume from a Recorded Sound Programmatically

The loudness meter isn’t usable from the public API at the moment. It’s designed to run and display it’s output in the studio tool. As you’ve discovered it’s data parameters are not in declared in any of our headers.

I would look at this question http://52.88.2.202/questions/question/microphone-input-playback for info on using DSP::getMeteringInfo.
