By putting loudness solutions in the hands of its partners, Dolby aims to assis broadcasters comply with regulations such as the Commercial Advertisement Loudness Mitigation (CALM) Act, while providing a consistent, optimal audio experience. Dolby delivers unique and effective solutions that address loudness inconsistencies throughout the broadcast chain.
Dolby will also soon make its dialogue gating technology available to manufacturers at no charge, and introduced licensing programmes for its suite of loudness metering and correction technologies.
‘Addressing loudness differences is a challenge facing our customers throughout the content processing chain, from postproduction to broadcast and delivery,’ says Digital Rapids Corporation President, Brick Eksten. ‘We’re pleased to be working closely with Dolby to integrate their loudness metering and measurement technologies into our media transformation solutions to help our customers meet regulatory and practical loudness requirements.’
Among the Dolby Media Emulator benefits are: simplified metadata authoring through integration into major audio workstations; provision of monitoring of different consumer environments; and quicker workflow for metadata throughout production.
