Process
Loudness normalization
The measurement and adjustment of program audio toward a specified perceived-loudness target.
Inputs
- Approved creative material, production information, and the requirements for the task
Outputs
- A reviewed result with a clear owner, version, and downstream handoff
Handoffs
- Delivery specifications can define integrated loudness, loudness range, gating, dialogue measurement, and true-peak limits; normalization is not simple peak matching.
In practice
