This is THE best and clearest explanation I've seen on this topic. You earned yourself a subscriber, keep up the good job.
Cheers Magnus! Gotta make all this stuff as straightforward as possible, its complicated enough!
I totally agree...
so why do you think the louder the better in human perception ? I still don't get it.
@@Renaxelo it's just an observation of how we really perceive things. Not a value judgement :)
He is very well spoken and cuts out all of the unnecessary crap. The best info/tutorial videos I have ever seen.
Best explanation on the entire Internet ❤️
Best comment on the entire internet 💙
Defintely one of the most valuable channels in the entire world.
Big praise, thanks!
man i've been mixing and mastering my own tracks from a home setup for something like 10 years and this is the first time RMS actually clicked for me. definitely got a sub from me ahaha
We need those techniques to get that perceived loudness ASAP !!
Once you've really started understanding the video's content, then check out LUFS. It's a measure similar to RMS but also accounts for the brightness of a sound. Once you've got that, you've pretty much there!
Fantastic video with an extremely clear and well explained definition of the science behind volume. Thanks for making this
This channel is amazing, you have a great way of explaining production concepts🙏🏻🥇🙌
Thanks for the explanation!
i’ve watched a lot of production tutorials, and your are one of the best. keep it up
Thanks for the encouragement :)
THANK YOU! I never really understood these terms, and this explanation cleared it right up
great job ! lots of really interesting , fast , clear vids! THANKS

Instantly liked and subbed. Recommended.
This is the best explanation I have seen yet. Great video!
Thank you soo much 👏👏👏... I've known the term rms for years but I always underestimated the power it has in the final product of my song. Now that I know, I'll utilize it as much as I can
Clear, concise and straight to the point explanation.

Perfect explanation!!👌🏻
Super helpful, thanks.
I would like to add my two cents. This is all true and great. It might leave true beginners with a wrong impression though. Video 2 of this series goes into this though so go watch it!
High RMS at all costs is not strictly how perceived loudness is increased. Some dynamic range is necessary because otherwise everything will sound extremely "squashed" and lacking "punch" which is antagonistic to perceived loudness as well.
The best additional way to increase perceived loudness is through EQ. Cut out unnecessary mud from the lows. Shave off energy from an instrument to increase the energy of a competing instrument. SIDECHAIN. Add some saturation to instruments that need to break through. Use the entire frequency spectrum in a precise manner to truly unlock high perceived loudness.
thx mate, super clear and simple explanation!! :-)
Bro i mean this is the best explanation I’ve ever had. Thank u so much for this video. U r so gifted at teaching 😂
The best explanation I've ever seen

awesome. thank you
Love ur videos so well explained
Thanks!
1:57 My brain is wired to find loud better when it has to be and worse when it's loud but it should be quiet. Dynamic range lets music breath, let it breath!
Thank You!
You explained/taught this better then my audio engineering teacher...
Ahhhhhh, dude! Awesome tip!
Great content!
Thank you soooo much
