What LM-Correct 2 does
Within an NLE or DAW the plugin performs automated compliance true-peak correction. It is used alongside a real-time meter, so iterative adjustments are saved and the mix can be steered toward a chosen target.
Processing is automated and runs faster than real time on file-based jobs, which the developer contrasts with the standalone and Avid AudioSuite versions of the tool. A single click can convert audio from one specification to another, and the same workflow re-purposes and re-versions a program when several deliverables are needed. Optional dynamic processing can be added inside LM-Correct 2 with one click, including for complex material. The developer says a new DynApt extension, built on technology from its server-side solutions, provides immediate correction. The unit handles audio files from mono through 5.1 and is presented as compliant with all current standards.
Key features
- Automated true-peak correction. Compliance true-peak correction runs automatically within the host, and the iterative adjustments made against the real-time meter are stored for later recall.
- Loudness targets. Processing aims at true-peak, integrated program loudness and short-term maximum values, so a file can be conformed to a chosen specification.
- Single-click conversion. A single click transforms audio from one specification to another, and the developer states this runs faster than real time.
- Re-purposing and re-versioning. One program can be re-purposed and re-versioned into several deliverables, which the developer says increases efficiency when multiple versions are required.
- Optional dynamic processing. Dynamic processing can be introduced in LM-Correct 2 with a single click, including on complex material where the level adjustment needs more control.
- DynApt extension. The DynApt extension is built on technology the developer uses in server-side solutions and is intended to give immediate correction.
- Channel layouts. Files from mono through 5.1 are handled automatically, so one tool covers stereo and surround deliverables.
