I seem to remember some discussion on using EBU R128 loudness measuring for
normalization of audio. It was mentioned a couple of years ago and I think
someone on this list had found some open source code to enable this monitoring.
Has anything further happened on this? ---- On Thu, 01 Nov 2018 15:43:07 +0000

but any "reasonable" number should be fine. There’s been lots of debate about
this over the years. Many American vendors have standardized with -12, whereas
our friends over the Atlantic seem to favor -18 or even -20. In Rivendell, the
‘reference level' is actually -16 dBFS (that being the ‘0’ point on Rivendell’s
audio meters). That number was chosen mostly because a certain proprietary
automation system to which I had access at the time (ca. 2002) used it as well,
thus making it easy to use audio from that system for test cases. Cheers!
