Loudness Analysis and Handling with Easy to Read Instruments
Graphical and numerical instruments for loudness measurements according to current standards.
The Loudness and SPL Display license expands the basic 4-channel PPM with graphical and numerical instruments for Loudness measurements as described in current guidelines (EBU R128, ITU-R BS.1770-4/1771-1, ATSC A/85, ARIB, OP-59, AGCOM, CALM, LEQ(M), TASA, SAWA), and the LRA instrument for the graphical display of the Loudness Range. A customer-specific mode allows the user to modify parameters. Dialnorm values can be measured with activated Multichannel Mode license (SW20001).
If you additionally activate the Timecode Reader license (SW20008), you are able to execute timecode-based loudness measurements and loudness recalculation.
Loudness Sum
With the Loudness Sum instrument you get a bar graph display of the summed Loudness values M, S, and/or I of a Loudness measurement acc. to EBU R128, ITU BS.1770-4/1771-1, ARIB, ATSC A/85, OP-59, AGCOM, CALM Act, LEQ(M), TASA, SAWA, or specified by customer. A SPL meter is also included.
Loudness Num
With the Loudness Num instrument you can monitor some or all relevant values of a loudness measurement on a numerical display: M, S, I, LRA, TPmax, Mmax, Smax, Itime.
LRA (Loudness Range)
The LRA (Loudness Range) instrument displays a graphical representation of the loudness variances within short time periods. These are measured against the Loudness Range (LRA) descriptor specified in EBU R 128. It is used to show whether a program has a continuously constant loudness or a high variation between low and high level components. It allows for making assumptions on whether the program has seen or requires dynamic processing with regard to the intended distribution path.
Dialnorm
The Dialnorm instrument can calculate and show Dialnorm values from its digital input signals. Dialnorm is used in film sound mixing and describes the normalization of the dialog loudness level (dialogue normalization) with respect to a certain reference monitoring level (-31 dBFS in surround applications).
Applications
Control your program according to the requirements resp. the delivery standards and be loudness compliant
Keep your eyes on the summed, maximum, and true peak values
Monitor individual program parts, complete programs, or the whole broadcast
Evaluate the dynamic of your program in regard to the distribution path
Identify, if the program needs or has seen processing
