![]() A comparable audio segment with wide dynamics will complicate matters further. However IMHO a -20 LUFS spoken word Podcast approaches the broadcast Loudness Targets that I feel are inadequate for this particular platform. I am all for what I refer to as reasonable deviation or “wiggle room” in regard to Integrated Loudness Target flexibility for Podcasts. However the leniency of this range is what concerns me. Indeed compliance within this range will moderately curtail perceptual loudness disparities across a wide range of programs. I’m specifically referring to the suggested 4 LU range (-16.0 to -20.0 LUFS) of acceptable Integrated Loudness Targets and the solutions for proper targeting. However in my view the guidelines have the potential to create a fair amount of confusion for producers of spoken word content, mainly Podcast producers. I support the purpose of this document, and I understand the stated recommendations will most likely evolve. “ Network file playback is on-demand download of complete programs from the network, such as podcasts.” The term “Podcast” is directly referenced once in the document, where the author(s) state: The document credits some of the most well respected industry leading professionals, including Bob Katz, Thomas Lund, and Florian Camerer. This would include music, spoken word, and possible high dynamic audio in video streams. The document is a collection of Loudness processing guidelines for diverse platform dependent media streaming and downloading. I’d like to share my observations and views on the recently published AES Technical Document AES TD1004.1.15-10 that specifics best practices for Loudness of Audio Streaming and Network File Playback. ![]()
