Loudness Track Inspector

The loudness track Inspector shows the following values:

Short Term

Shows the loudness measured over a duration of 3 s.

Integrated

Shows the average loudness that is measured from start to stop. The period of measurement is shown in the Time display. The recommended value for the integrated loudness is -23 LUFS. This absolute value is the reference point for the relative LU scale where -23 LUFS equals 0 LU.

Range

Shows the dynamic range of the audio that is measured from start to stop. This value helps you to decide how much dynamic compression you can apply. The range that is recommended for highly dynamic audio like film music, for example, is 20 LU.

True Peak

Shows the true peak level of the audio. The maximum permitted true peak level in production is -1 dB.

Notepad

Allows you to enter notes about the track.
