Loudness Analyzer & Normalizer

U.S. TV follows the ATSC A/85 standard and targets -24 LUFS, while Europe follows EBU R 128 and targets -23 LUFS, both with a true peak of -1 to -2 dBTP to prevent distortion and ensure broadcast quality.

Cinema audio typically has a much wider dynamic range, allowing for very quiet moments and very loud moments. Still, true peak levels should not exceed -3 dBTP to -6 dBTP.

Similar to streaming platforms, these platforms also aim for -14 LUFS for consistency and to avoid drastic changes in volume from one video to the next.

To ensure consistency across content types, streaming platforms such as Spotify have standardized on -14 LUFS.

TV commercials are typically louder than regular TV content to attract attention, often falling between -24 and -20 LUFS.

Video-on-demand services closely follow broadcast TV standards, typically around -24 LUFS with a similar true peak.

Podcasts are targeted at -16 LUFS for clear and consistent playback across devices. This is similar to mobile content.

Physical media such as DVDs and Blu-rays target -27 LUFS to maintain high dynamic range and theater-like audio quality.

Radio broadcasts typically aim for -16 LUFS to ensure clear audio in various listening environments and signal strengths.
