Loudness Track Events
Sponsored by NUGEN Audio
The Loudness wars have waged on air for decades, leaving behind millions of frustrated listeners as collateral damage. The FCC, EBU, and ITU responded with a family of standards aimed at measuring and controlling loudness to ensure a satisfactory listening experience. The Loudness Track presents the latest research and practices, and seeks to demystify this rapidly emerging field.
