Loudness Numeric Menu

This menu page is used to configure the Loudness Numeric instrument. This instrument is available after one of the loudness modes has been selected for the current audio group. It displays the numerical readout of the M, S, I and LRA measurements, the maximum values TPmax, Mmax, Smax, and the duration of the measurement (I-time) conforming to the selected recommendation, or to a customer specific setting. If needed, the numerical readouts of these individual loudness measurements can be activated or disabled individually. The values of current running measurements for I, LRA, TPmax, Mmax, Smax, and I-time values will be colored green, those of stopped measurements yellow. If values are exceeding the upper limits, they will be colored red.

Tolerance Levels (Audio Group) section  

  

Please note:
The settings in this menu relate to all instruments of this audio group. If tolerances will be changed in one of the instruments, these changes will also be adjusted to all other instruments of the group providing these options.

  

• M High
This key is used to define the upper threshold of tolerance range in LU for the "M" bargraph with an individual color selection. The base for the upper tolerance is located at the displayed value of the corresponding Target Level.

Options:

  

0 LU to 10 LU in steps of 0.1 LU

Default value:

  

EBU: +1.0 LU | ITU/ATSC/CALM/OP-59: +2.0 LU | ARIB: 0.0 LU | AGCOM: +0.5 LU

  

• S High
This key is used to define the upper threshold of tolerance range in LU for the "S" bargraph with an individual color selection. The base for the upper tolerance is located at the displayed value of the corresponding Target Level.

Options:

  

0 LU to 10 LU in steps of 0.1 LU

Default value:

  

EBU: +1.0 LU | ITU/ATSC/CALM/OP-59: +2.0 LU | ARIB: 0.0 LU | AGCOM: +0.5 LU

  

• Over Sensitivity
This key is used to set the threshold for the "Over" range in dBTP for the TP value with an individual color selection. The value set here devides the over range from the headroom range.

Options:

  

-4 dBTP to 0 dBTP in steps of 0.1 dBTP

Default value:

  

-1.0 dBTP
