Loudness Normalize (EBU R128)
Loudness Normalize (EBU R128) normalizes audio to a broadcast-standard integrated loudness target — the standard used by streaming platforms and broadcasters to keep levels consistent across different content.
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Range | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Target | number | -70 to 0 LUFS | -24 LUFS | The integrated loudness target. -24 LUFS matches common broadcast standards; -16 LUFS is a common streaming/podcast target. |
| LRA | number | 1 to 20 LU | 7 LU | Target loudness range — how much variation in loudness is allowed to remain. |
| True Peak | number | -9 to 0 dB | -2 dB | Maximum true-peak ceiling, to leave headroom and avoid inter-sample clipping. |
Note: values below about -5 LUFS for Target aren't meaningfully achievable — keep Target at -5 LUFS or louder (i.e. closer to 0) for predictable results.
