Youlean Loudness Meter Reviews and details

Social recommendations and mentions

• Advice mastering noise music?? And any visualizer suggestions

  I use this to check loudness and peaks, and it's free. Although, imo "mastering" noise is maybe a bit of a losing battle (at least outside of a super professional level, with calibrated monitors in a treated room). Checking loudness will just ensure consistency and that nobody's going to melt their ears off when your track comes on the radio or in a playlist (although Spotify normalizes audio levels anyway).

• What to put on master? Multi band compressor, limiter, soft clipper or maximus?

  This might be a hot take but fruity limiter is perfectly fine for any application a limiter is desiered. I’d recommend putting an LUF meter like this one Youlean Loudness Meter (it’s free) and a plug-in like Voxengo Span (also free) this will let you see the how loud your track is, you’r phase correlation and total frequency response.

• Balancing LUFS with True Peak

  I'm struggling with mastering and thought I'd ask for some pointers.

I got the Youlean Loudness Meter and I've been using it to test and hone my mixes. Source: over 2 years ago
