Music and audio for video is becoming a staple of the modern project studio. In the past, only specialized, larger studios had the gear required for synchronization to picture. These days, however, even the smallest project studio can provide a soundtrack for just about any video project, no matter how complex. Delivering your work in a format that global broadcasters expect, however, can be a challenge. That’s where izotope RX Loudness Control comes in

Meeting the Standard

RX Loudness Control is designed to meet almost any standard for broadcast audio you can imagine. Global standards, US standards, European standards, Australian standards… RX has them all. For those of you unfamiliar with the process, getting your mix to pass loudness compliance can be a ‘make it or break it’ process. If you do an audio mix for TV or film that will be broadcast in any major market, you can count on someone testing your mix to see if it is within compliance (and you can also count on having to re-do your mix when it gets sent back to you after failing the compliance test).

Conclusion

RX Loudness Control is a fairly straightforward tool that can save you a lot of time if it’s a tool that you need. If you already manually deliver to one of the various broadcast standards, then you can be assured RXLC will cut out a major step in your workflow without degrading the quality of your mix. My only gripe is that it’s only available for Pro Tools and Adobe CC. AU plugin users and Final Cut Pro users can’t use the plugin without a copy of Pro Tools or the Adobe suite.
