Abstract:
Thanks to various laws and recommendations, the loudness regulation is now well spread among TV broadcasters. Now sound mixers and broadcast engineers need for new tools to raise the quality while keeping the dynamics of good programs and gently process others. This workshop will offer an overview of the latest developments concerning loudness measures and process, such as modifying the loudness range, compensating the loudness shift of upmix/downmix, measuring the loudness through an IP network and integrating a smart loudness fader within a web player.
