In this episode, we measure the loudness of the entire video and raise it to the YouTube standard, minus 14 LUFS, without making the audio clip distort. Let's get started. Hello, welcome back to the complete Adobe Premiere Pro series from Cerdas Inovasi Digital. YouTube, Spotify, and social media normalize the loudness of every video to around minus 14 LUFS. Videos that are too quiet sound weak compared to other videos. We measure and adjust the loudness to meet the standard.
LUFS, loudness units relative to full scale, measures the perceived loudness to the human ear, not just the peaks. The YouTube standard is around minus 14 LUFS, while TV broadcasting is minus 23.
Drag the loudness meter effect from the audio effects folder, special, to the track mix in the audio track mixer, or to the clip. Play the entire sequence. The meter records integrated loudness, the average loudness of the entire video.
After playing until the end, our integrated loudness reading is far below minus 14 LUFS. This means the video will sound quiet compared to other videos on YouTube.
Select the dialogue and music clips, then in Essential Sound, adjust the loudness auto-match to a louder target, or increase the master mix. Measure again until the integrated loudness approaches minus 14 LUFS.
Increasing loudness can cause peaks to exceed 0 decibels and distort. Add the hard limiter effect to the track mix with a maximum amplitude of minus 1 decibel. The limiter holds every peak so it never exceeds the set limit. Play again from the beginning with the loudness meter.
Integrated loudness is now around minus 14 LUFS and true peak is below minus 1 decibel. The mix is ready to export and upload. Audio module is complete.
Done. We have now understood LUFS, installed the loudness meter, read integrated loudness, raised the loudness to minus 14 LUFS, held the peaks with a hard limiter at minus 1 decibel, and measured again. Audio module is complete. Next up: green screen and compositing.
