What VisLM does
An automated loudness overdub is also provided. A full set of international and regional presets is included, along with legacy, station-specific internal specifications that the developer says cover detailed situations.
Key features
- Leqm TASA measurement. A Leqm measurement with TASA weighting is included for checking loudness against that standard.
- Frame-accurate logging. Loudness logging with time-code functions records measurements for compliance reports and postmortem analysis.
- Preset library. A full set of international and regional presets, along with legacy station-specific specifications, sets the meters for a given delivery.
Use cases
- Broadcast delivery checks. The meters and presets are set up for checking a programme against the loudness standards named in the notes.
- Compliance reporting. Timecode-locked logging is used to produce frame-accurate records for proof compliance reporting.
Who it is for
VisLM suits post-production engineers and broadcast mixers who need to measure loudness against international standards and to keep timecode-accurate logs of a delivery.
