what are you peeps using to measure perceived loudness of your tracks? Or do you care?
Im using MP3gain, an old program thats been around for ages, just wondering about other alternatives?
thanks |

ears work good lol
peak to rms ratio is really the best number feed back. But calibrated system and your ears. That is the best way. |

| I have the Flux Pure Analyzer system with the Metering option. It reports pretty much every standard, including EBU-R128 for perceived loudness. I don't pay too much attention to it tbh since I tend to work on the minus side of the loudness war. But, it's useful for comparing my loudness values to reference tracks. |

looks interesting but i think u need a dongle for that, thanks |

Yes, it does require an iLok.
Before I bought it, I compared it to the Waves WLM, which was also very nice, a bit cheaper, doesn't require a dongle, and also reports both short-term and long-term perceived loudness. I'm sure there are even cheaper (maybe even free) perceived loudness meters available, but accuracy/precision may be a concern. |

Lol, I still used that program (albeit for making large numbers of tracks all similar volume). It's actually pretty damn good but it has virtually nothing in the way of reporting / analysis. |

So much talent but it's wasted on bad delivery. I mean the punctuation is all wrong and there's even wrong words in there. |
