HOW LOUD SHOULD YOUR VIDEO BE?
Well, technically, for web, -16 LUFS
WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN?
Don’t worry about it. Just watch this video. If you have Premiere AND Audition, this is a very straightforward and simple process. The gist of the process is exporting your audio mix alone, as a stereo WAV file, and bringing that into Audition. Thankfully, Adobe Audition has robust loudness tools (much more-so than Premiere!), and you can basically analyze and set your loudness with a few clicks! Once you set the loudness, apply the changes, using the Match Loudness feature, you just simply bring the master track back into Premiere and sub out the rest of your audio. DONE. Simple. Perfect. Crispy.
Have you even thought about loudness? Tried to do it in Premiere? Do you know what loudness even is?
I have! Thanks for asking bro!
Do you recommend recording audio at -14 LUFS instead of -16 LUFS these days, for users who only plan to upload to UA-cam? I'm reading UA-cam changed to -14 LUFS around the time you made this video.
This was AMAZING, thank you so much!
Thanks. Watched a bunch of vids here. Learned a ton. Subscribed. Good job Oliver!
Thanks Ed, happy to have ya!
Beautiful! I'm gonna use this when I get ridiculously ambitious and do things like putting in a stock sound clip (thunder or horn) in my videos.
Ha I look forward to that!
This was such a phenomenal video. Straight and to the point, and you articulately described EXACTLY what you were doing so we could follow along. Thanks mate!!
Man thank you!!
Maaaaan, this is how tutorials should be done!
Came for the beautifully faded thumbnail of your face. Stayed for the chest hair.
😂🙏🏻
LOL, here for the beard AND the chest hair. Also THANK YOU - was trying to find the ITU pull-down and failing!
DUDE, super helpful! thanks fam
ALWAYS
thanks man
Great video bro
Thank you sir!
Curtis Judd theme song playing 👌😂
Inspired to learn Adobe audition... thanks
Yes! I'm pumped to hear that!
Your tutorials are incredibly helpful-I'd subscribe again if I could. As a photog dabbling in video, I need a resource like you. Keep up the good work!
Dang, that's really cool to hear! Thank you Anthony
Thanks for the tutorial! What's the difference between using Match Loudness and Hard Limiter? Cause it seems that Hard Limiter also allows you to optimize your loudness.
Thanks so much for this video! I was recording for a creepypasta...ish video and was having issues with my audio and this helped a lot!
Glad I could help!
Hi Oliver, thanks so much for this video. I was wondering if you might help to elucidate how to go about preventing UA-cam's normalization algorithm from dropping my voice down into the sound floor. I run a RØDE NT-USB, which is a condenser microphone and quite bright, so I typically record with the level set to minus 10 to minus 15, then I pass it through Audition to raise the levels and normalize before uploading. > Many listeners tell me my audio is fine, but there is a subset whom routinely complain that even at max volume they can't hear me. What can I do?
Hi Oliver. Is this a technique JUST for uploading to social media? Or can you use this technique for a short film that will be shown at film festivals in movie theaters?
First of all, your videos are fantastic! So useful and insightful!
Question tho: what gain level would you say you should record at if your Target is -23LUFS? Is it fine if you just don’t peak?
Big love
Thank you! No need to keep the end loudness in mind while recording since there’s a whole different school of thought balancing gain and noise floor. But the best rule I like to follow is try to keep your peaks between -20dbfs and -12dbfs, and definitely don’t let the spikes above -6. That is the ideal that balances a strong signal against the noise while avoiding clipping. Normalize that bitch to -23 in post baby.
Hi can you do a revie on the Sennheiser Momentum Wireless 3
That helped me a lot, thank you! But I have a big problem... In Cs6 there is no knob to adjust the true peak. Is there an easy way to adjust it in CS6?
Do you recommend recording audio at -14 LUFS instead of -16 LUFS these days, for users who only plan to upload to UA-cam? I'm reading UA-cam changed to -14 LUFS around the time you made this video.
nice. HAT. i trust you.
YES. Thank you. Trustworthy hats are important.
I love this feature... another on the long list of reasons why Audition is the best DAW for recording the spoken voice.
In a perfect world, someone would create a plugin to do this, so it could be dropped onto the FX chain resulting in a perfectly “loudness-ized” recording without extra “work”.
I can do everything else I need for my standard VO’s with my FX chain, but then I have to drag, drop, and process the file when done to get the loudness right. It’s too bad it can’t be built in to the chain too... someone needs to code that! Anyone? A script maybe?
Thanks for another great video. Speaking for everyone else... we’ve missed you! Hope you’re well and looking forward to that content you mentioned!
You are so right - I wonder if Premiere doesn't have it on purpose lol. And thank you!! I'm happy to be back!
I'm a little confused on normalizing my audio. Should I use the gain tool and normalize to -3db and then at the end adjust the loundness to -16? I'm vlogging without any music so just voice.
You don't need to do both - it's up to you which you choose but a more exact loudness would be from the actual Normalization process discussed in the video, but simply raising your gain is essentially the same thing (just without the precise measurements) as long as nothing is clipping!
Hi, I have a question. I love movies. I'm also getting on in age so my hearing isn't what it used to be. So if I watch an action movie at home, then I'm forced to increase the volume to hear the dialogue spoken in the movie. The problem is that the moment the action sequences start, then I'm overwhelmed by the booming, banging and crashing noise of it. I tend to grab my remote and turn the volume down again. As an older person this is very frustrating as I don't really care for the excessive volume that is associated with guns or explosions etc. So, is there a simple piece of software out there that might automatically adjust movie soundtracks so that the noisy scenes are made quieter and the spoken audio is made louder? Thank you ever so much.
Not sure why you haven't gotten a response. But your television, assuming it's not an old model, should come with a feature that'll help normalize audio. Perhaps do some digging online for this TV feature based on your model ( if it comes with it )
The way the hat perfectly lines up with the neck hole. Serendipity or calculated?
I actually cut this shirt right at the neck to make the hat
