Audio Normalizer

Normalize audio loudness to industry standards using EBU R128 loudnorm filter. Set target loudness for streaming (-14 LUFS), podcasts (-16 LUFS), or broadcast (-23 LUFS). Ensures consistent volume across tracks.

What is it used for?

  • Normalizing podcast episodes to consistent loudness
  • Meeting streaming platform loudness requirements (Spotify, Apple Music)
  • Preparing audio for broadcast (EBU R128 compliance)
  • Making multiple audio tracks the same perceived volume

Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Upload your audio file
  2. Select target loudness (-14 LUFS for streaming, -16 for podcasts, -23 for broadcast)
  3. Click 'Convert to .MP3'
  4. Preview the normalized audio
  5. Download the result

How it works

Upload an audio file, select your target loudness, and click Convert. FFmpeg's loudnorm filter analyzes the audio and adjusts levels to match the target LUFS with proper loudness range and true peak limiting.

Tips & Best Practices

  • -14 LUFS is the standard for Spotify, YouTube, and most streaming platforms
  • -16 LUFS is recommended for podcasts
  • -23 LUFS is the EBU R128 standard for European broadcast

Frequently Asked Questions

What is LUFS?

LUFS (Loudness Units Full Scale) is the standard measurement for audio loudness. -14 LUFS is the standard for Spotify and YouTube, -16 for podcasts, -23 for European broadcast.

Will this clip or distort my audio?

The loudnorm filter includes true peak limiting (TP=-1 dBFS) to prevent clipping. It adjusts overall loudness without causing distortion.
