The Mastering Show #105 - Loudness at the Grammys: is there REALLY a secret sauce ?

The Mastering Show #105 - Loudness at the Grammys: is there REALLY a secret sauce ?

Published 4 months ago
Description

It was the Grammys this week - you can't have missed it !

And somewhere along the way I saw an article by Ian Vargo assessing the loudness and dynamics of the nominees for Best Song.

In this episode I talk about what he discovered, and what my reaction is – and along the way, I talk about:

  1. The highest (and lowest !) LUFS measurements of the Best Song nominees
  2. How I feel about that
  3. What these songs sound like with more dynamics
  4. What difference does it make ?
  5. Is loudness really "part of the aesthetic" ?
  6. And what really does make a difference ?
