Product Description
The Metering Tool For Loudness And Dynamics
true:level is a metering plug-in that visualizes the interplay between loudness and dynamics in a meaningful way, making it immediately apparent if a mix is ready to publish.
- Real-time metering of true peak, loudness and dynamics
- Predefined references and custom reference options
- Level check with text-based suggestions
By popular demand, sonible has developed true:level as a stand-alone metering plug-in based on smart:limit’s extensive loudness and dynamics monitoring section. Its unique visualization of the interplay between loudness and dynamics makes true:level a revolutionary metering tool for finding just the right trade-off between these qualities in a track.
When finalizing a track for publication, users can draw from a range of common references, including the loudness values required for different streaming platforms and the dynamics appropriate for various genres—or they can upload custom reference tracks. With a final Level Check, the plug-in then suggests any necessary actions to achieve the specifications of the reference. Additional features, such as loudness and dynamics histograms, give users a detailed but coherent overview of the audio material’s overall quality.
true:level is a versatile and precise loudness, dynamics and true peak metering plug-in. Its unique visualization of the interplay between loudness and dynamics makes true:level a great metering tool for finding just the right trade-off between these qualities in a track. When finalizing a track for publishing, users can draw from a range of common references, including the loudness values required for different streaming platforms and the dynamics appropriate for various genres - or they can upload custom reference tracks to easily compare them to the mix.
Features
Gain Productive Insights With The Help Of References
true:level comes with a range of predefined references – including the loudness standards of publishing platforms and dynamic references for different genres. Aiming for these reference values avoids unpleasant surprises when you publish your a mix. To ensure consistency across an entire project, you can load up to 8 reference tracks to compare your mix with.
Easily Find And Make The Right Trade-Offs
true:level makes the link between loudness and dynamics of a mix immediately apparent and provides you with a holistic overview of both values. The calculated reference zone is specified either by your chosen loudness and dynamics reference or the custom reference tracks that you’ve uploaded. In case you need a little guidance regarding how to modify your track to bring it within the reference zone, just hit the Level Check. That will provide you with hints as to what actions are needed.
Focus On Readouts That Really Matter
All displayed readouts as well as their visualizations are designed so that you don’t have to second-guess what you are seeing – or become distracted by too many details. true:level’s key readouts are supported by target indicators, allowing you see if your track is close to the values of your chosen reference.
