1. The LUFS algorithm penalizes productions that are very dense and don't have many quiet sections 2. Minimalist productions e.g no drums, play out louder than other types such as rock or metal 3. Therefore loudness has to start in the production
I'm going to try and do every friday but what we are up against is I am trying to make an online course and then also doing a few mixes. Mostly shutting the mix thing down to finish the course tho by december.
@@JeffEllisWorldwide that is so exciting, I think I speak for everyone here in saying that we really appreciate all this insight, I know it’s a lot of hard work to make these videos for us. You and Trevor are killin it!! And I cannot wait for mixer brain, I’m going to watch it over and over until I can become 1-2% as good a mixer as you!! 🫡
A question for the brains trust here. Does Spotify actually batch convert audio or does it just apply the normalisation per devise (in the app). There’s a setting on desktop and mobile that toggles normalise on or off. Maybe they do both. Anyone?
It does not convert any audio. It just by default adjusts the volume of every song based on it's LUFS measurement. This setting can be turned off but 99.9 percent of people dont even know what it is and it's just always on by default when they install spotify.
Is it just me or the loudness war is really cringe ? Instead of trying to be louder than other people, why not try to write better music? Or try new things? So burned out of these top tier well produced/mixed tracks that nobody cares about because it sounds like everything else. Should be a Songwriting war instead of a loudness war.
People perceive louder as better it's not even about the song. There's plugins as soon as you open them they boost the level on top of it's regular processing. If you're comparing and don't notice you're gonna think it's way better than it is.
Thanks for this. Now I can begin instigating Loudness War II.
🎉The Loudness War is over, and with it the completion of Music as a whole.
It’s time for Music 2
gonna get Music 2 before GTA 6
You're doing great Trevor
thank you
thanks for doing these Jeff & Trevor!
One of the best music production video titles :-)
Great job Trevor
This is gold. Thank you
I think that using the 'shenanigans line' is very much art. Using the constraints of a format often opens up creativity
omg this is goldddd🤩😍✨✨
This is brilliant again😈
The slow burn of humor on the videographer/editor's part is hilarious.
Love you Jeff & team
aw thanks
Trevor, you need a bandana and lean into this David Foster Wallace thing let’s go buddy
YES YES YES thank youuuuuuu
Also mailing list link isnt hyperlinked
fixed thank you for this audit

Regarding LUFS or not, loudness come from production, sound design and song structure
If you guys continue releasing videos at this pace I think I might die from happiness 🥹

we're gonna get you off that cat food trevor.
im on dog food myself. it's not better but it's crunchier.
ppl think. he eats like traditional cat food but it's actually cats he turned into food
@@JeffEllisWorldwide im the one eating the ohio cats
Streaming is one thing but some of the FLACs I've played recently have been insanely loud. RAVL - Outrenoir is a good example.
Blast your emailbox 😅Love this.
