I export out of BIAB setting all tracks to flat, centred and normalised.

The real advantage to the Izotope stuff is interaction between modules that does not happen with free tools. I use Izotope Neutron and Ozone which assist even more but you can do it with free tools. However I still check using the Youlean LUFS meter (you can get it free from Youlean himself). I have the meter set so that 0 is 14 LUFS. I set the ceiling to -1.3 when converting to MP3 but the principle applies. It is about Reaper but similar applies in other DAWs. I did notice that compared to the other inputs into the mixer (mic and guitar) the tablet with the MP3 tracks on has to be cranked up very high. Tonight I'll save that to my tablet and see how it sounds into the mixer. That's too high then? I have tried to change by loading a set of MP3 back tracks into MP3Gain and lowering the level a little at a time until the Vol column shows no more clipping ticks. If I leave it like that the MP3 seems to be quiet soft so I have set the main slider at the bottom of the mixer to 10 for all songs. I'm not sure what the 90 means and I don't know much about digital and theory.

If I recall my BIAB seems to set the various vol levels at 90 when I select a style. I had better go back to the beginning and reload each of my songs into BIAB then start with the mixer levels. I do make sure the Normalise is checked when I render the MP3. Hi Tony, Thanks I'll try to get my head around that. The Youlean LUFS meter will in fact indicate where the clipping points are. Using a LUFS meter and bringing the tracks to about -14 LUFS pretty much does away with clipping and also avoids the need to lift songs in MP3gain. Often it is only drums clipping and you probably would not hear that happening. If I have the overall level too low then lift it in MP3gain it can result in clipping. The stuff I do does not really hit the limiter much but it is below -1.3 dB. Using a limiter it is possible to get an overall “louder” song but you lose dynamics. Use a limiter bring the overall mix to -1.5 dB or if the limiter shows true peak -1.3 dB or so. To get the song to a good level, initially drop the levels when mixing then lift them as a final stage in mastering.

Whilst you may get away with this with a wav file when converting to MP3 you will almost certainly get clipping.įor MP3 you really don’t want a peak level at 0 dB probably -1.2 dB true peak might avoid clipping but even that is close to the mark. Each track at 0 dB the overall mix at or over 0 dB. When exporting to wav and the normalise option is used the tracks come out very hot. If for example you were to simply export the tracks from BIAB, give them a rough mix without lowering the levels exported from BIAB your track will almost certainly be clipping when converted to MP3. mp3 file.The trick is to get the levels right before converting them to MP3.

Zara was quite a bit louder when playing the same.

That is one of the reasons that I replaced my show computer a few years ago - get away from Windows XP which did not do this because I had the same issue between Zara Radio and the LOR Show Player.

This level set will remain as set through a reboot. Windows (starting with Vista) allows setting the level for each audio source in the Windows sound mixer. However long before that level, any proper FM receiver would turn that much deviation into massive distortion.Īs for differences between different sound players within your computer - yep, it happens. Even at that level, the RF signal was still clean (not splattering), but the modulation was no longer linear. I was surprised to find that my CZE-05b would go up to about 135 KHz of deviation before it started to distort. The maximum deviation (modulation) for a FM broadcast transmitter is 75 KHz. I have access to RF test equipment that let's me see and measure the RF performance of transmitters. Actually to be a little picky, with these radios, they will happily and cleanly transmit at substantially excessive modulation without distortion.
