Thanks for usefull guide! Only one thing to note - when you use Hardlimiter and Radar, in one time, the Radar should be lower, than Hardlimiter in the list of audioeffects. Otherwise it will scan audio without effect of hardlimiter - and you will see same situation, as before.

I have been giving myself a crash course in video making (I am a college tech instructor, and we're online due to covid this fall). Every week I learn that there is some important aspect of video making that I need to learn. Last week it was lighting. This week it is audio. I will need to spend some time with your videos. This one is clear, to the point, and just at the edge of my ability to comprehend.

Good video Oliver. The Hard limiter offers the equivalent of Maxim RT plugin on Avid Media Composer for those looking for this. Just a note - Oliver mentions it in reply to a question further down that it is essential to put the Hard Limiter ABOVE the Loudness radar in the chain for you to see any changes after adjusting it. Set the maximum amplitude to -0.6 on the Hard limiter with Input Boost to 0 initially. Then run the Loudness Radar. Check the result and then adjust the Input Boost to compensate. Run Loudness Radar again to check it's worked. Oh and broadcast LUFS vary from -23 , through -23.5 to -24 in different countries - it's much quieter than web videos. Hope this helps.

I knew YT did things to audio but I never knew about the loudness radar. I love learning these new tidbits that make a huge overall impact. I've always relied on mixing it all down and balancing outside of Premiere but these extra features (that probably existed for quite some time) make life much easier to keep it in the project itself. Keep em comin'.

Great explanation. I don't do this very often so have to re-watch each time but it's still spot on. Re. the low volume of some large YT channels - my guess is this is probably legacy of Audio people mixing to Broadcast spec which is etched in stone (-23 LUFS) but Social Media spec which is more word of mouth being -16 LUFS.

The loudness radar is set to -14 as target loudness. What am I missing? Edit: I didn't have my hard limiter filter above the loudness radar. Forgot the filters box runs on hierarchy as well

Hi. Why don't you use the "Loudness Normalization" under Effects tab on the export window? Is the last option and it's pretty much the same thing. If you mix everything properly before the export, you will always get a perfect loudness whitout having to play all the sequence all the time just for it.
@OliverJHughes5 жыл бұрын
You’re correct - the only issue I have with that option is it normalizes based on peaks only - which can be unhelpful for the overall loudness rating. Thankfully Audition has a tool to automatically normalize based on overall loudness - which I use a lot.

So if you back up a few seconds I showed the path to find it, it's in the Track Mixer, toggle the disclosure triangle to open your effects slots, click on one and choose "Special", and then "Loudness Radar", and my comment of "Open up the effect by double clicking" refers to double clicking on that same space that the effect is in. That will open it for you to see.
