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.
