Understanding How to Loudness Normalize Your Audio for Video

I love you, you save my life.

So where is the tutorial on compression? :)

Thanks for the great video Curtis. What version of RX is this? Considering buying.

Thank you

but why can't you render the loudness control at 1.5 true peak and 16 lkfs from the beginning? why do i need the compressor as well?

I'm sure you've answered these questions a million times, but if you have one more in you:
Link to sound proofing
Link to sound treatment
My office has greater than -60db noise floor for 250hz on down
Above 250hz, the noise floor is -60db to -100db with the microphone, XLR cable, and audio interface in the supply line.
Not sure when it's time to replace the microphone or anything else. Hoping treating the room is where i need to start. High pass filter at 80hz, compression, noise reduction at a minimum.

Thank you so much for the video. but I getting error message after hitting Izotop ' ~ MixL_IZOTOP_n898B.wav' could not be opened. Product Portal cannot open files in the 'Waveform audio' format. Any advice? Thank you~!!

Running into a few issues and I'd love some help! I'm editing podcast audio and consistently run out of headroom to hit -17lufs even after compression. Anything helps! Thanks!

Izotope RX Advanced costs way too much comparing to Resolve Studio. Could you show how to do loudness normalization with the latest Resolve Studio Fairlight only?

Thank for information
Could you please to make a video how to do that in Resolve native effects ?

At the moment i'm only comfortable with the Pro Tools stock and CLA73 (non post) compressor. I've seen you confidently reduce the attack time to zero a couple of times. When I do that I get distortion unless I add a knee. Just wondered if you/anyone ever had this problem? Obviously if you reduce the attack time, some loud spikes could still sneak through.

Thanks for this great content.

It was very helpful in understanding the concept! 🙂👍

Hi folks, you need Isotope's RX10 Standard as a minimum to access the loudness controls. Currently $299.

Thanks for the tutorial - very informative and concise!

I checked out both part I and this part II, both very helpful... thank you Curtis!

what i cant stand is ill be watching a video and the then music will come and be SUPER loud where the rest of the audio is SUPER quiet. or the fact that no video seems to have the same audio level. its very frustrating.

I don't have iZotope Rx and I am trying to do this just in davinci. Also you can just right click on the audio track and analyze the audio in davinci to get the true peak and lufs levels without listening to the whole track. So I am compressing the audio in davinci then bouncing the compressed audio to a new track. But when I check it and normalize it I am having the opposite effect. When I right click and select normalize audio then I use the UTI-R BS, 1770-1 mode my true peak goes in the opposite direction and I end up with even less headroom than I did before. What am i doing wrong?

I'm using a Canon G7X Mark II with no external mic. (they're ordered) My question is where do you generally have your computer speaker volume set and then your computer sound volume set to begin editing? In DaVinci...

When I reach a True-Peak of -1,5db with Loudness Control and look on the right side where the Y-Axis shows the dB I can see that my audio is nowhere over -3db. Why does the loudness control show me a True Peak of -1,5db instead??

Thank you for this video! It's one of the most useful tutorial I've watched!
