The assisted mix capability introduced into Izotope Ozone defaults to -1.0 db output. Other available configurations are SMPTE/ITU (L,R,C,LFE,Ls,Rs) and DTS (L,R,Ls,Rs,C,LFE). As a default Insight uses film channel configuration(L,C,R,Ls,Rs,LFE).

Authorisation is via either a serial number or an iLok dongle, and a 10. After instantiating Insight on a surround track you may need to adjust the channel configuration in Insight to match that of your DAW or session. We mixed down at -0.3 db for decades and a -1.0 db regime seem to keep us in a better place considering ubiquitous post production processing and reprocessing of one’s rendered audio products. Insight is available as a stand-alone metering product in RTAS, AAX, Audiosuite, Audio Unit, Direct X and VST/VST3 formats, the last with both 32- and 64-bit code, and is also included as part of the Meter Bridge application in iZotopes Ozone Advanced mastering software. We use that loudness monitoring product (free with Ozone) and seek to keep moderate energy audio around Integrated -14 LUFS range with loud sections about -10 to -7 LUFS.Īaron Mullan has a friendly one page loudness metering primer called “A Practical Guide to Loudness Metering for the Recording Studio” in Tape Op #131 magazine, June-Jule 2019. It is perfect for visualizing changes made during mixing and mastering, troubleshooting problematic mixes, meeting the loudness standards of music streaming services, and more. Sounded like the Ad Man has a separate tutorial on loudness promoting Izotope’s Insight 2 product. Insight 2 is a comprehensive metering and audio analysis plug-in that is a core component of award-winning studios around the world. Examples, media players and web site audio streaming processes seem to yield uneven and unexpected results.ĭon’t recall loudness being well addressed in the Ad Man’s db spiel. It got me thinking about what happens to audio processed and reprocessed after the ccMixter is done.

The Ad Man’s tutorial didn’t motivate me to think about what anybody would notice listening to a producers unadulterated audio product.
