29/5/2020 RTW - Eyes on Your Audio: RTW - Standard di consegna a livello mondiale

TouchMonitor , Loudness

Standard di consegna in tutto il mondo

Fornire contenuti alle emittenti televisive, mixare un programma
TV per Netflix o semplicemente interessati ad ottimizzare l'audio
per vari piattaforme? Questo è il posto dove andare per tenersi
aggiornati sugli ultimi standard di consegna in merito al volume
audio LUFS.

Se fai parte della vasta comunità di produzione audio che fornisce contenuti per
emittenti o servizi di streaming, devi costantemente far fronte a requisiti diversi
per conformarti ai vari standard di consegna.

Negli ultimi anni, l'adesione a specifici standard di intensità sonora è diventata

sempre più importante e, oggigiorno, la rumorosità fa parte praticamente di
qualsiasi scheda tecnica audio.

Ma a seconda del distributore, della geografia, del tipo di contenuto e altro, i

requisiti di LUFS del volume possono differire e può essere difficile scoprire
esattamente quali standard sono rilevanti per ogni situazione.

Questo articolo del blog è stato creato per offrire una panoramica dei numerosi
standard utilizzati in tutto il mondo. Forniamo i numeri LUFS più importanti e il
collegamento alla documentazione pertinente per ulteriori dettagli.

Si noti che il presente elenco potrebbe non essere completo o aggiornato al 100%
in ogni momento. Le specifiche e gli standard di consegna possono essere
aggiornati di tanto in tanto o ne possono emergere di nuovi, e ovviamente
aggiorneremo questa pagina di conseguenza non appena ciò dovesse accadere e
ci viene in mente.

In conclusione, si prega di considerare questi dati informazioni generali che

forniamo al meglio delle nostre conoscenze e convinzioni.

Se sei a conoscenza di aggiornamenti recenti o nuovi standard, ti preghiamo di

segnalarcelo utilizzando il nostro modulo di contatto .

Raccomandazione per Loudness di streaming audio e

Loudness Type Streaming AES

Integrato (I) Da –16 a –20 LUFS

True Peak (TPmax) -1 dBTP

Reference: AES Technical Document (under revision)

Please note: A −20 LUFS lower limit has been chosen as the lowest current practical
value for streaming, as some current mobile devices have insufficient gain to allow the
common production targets of −23 or −24 LUFS to be heard at a satisfying loudness
even if the volume control is turned all the way up.
