  • Problems with audio levels for youtube

    Posted by Michael O’sullivan on July 21, 2014 at 8:53 pm

    Hey there sorry to be a pain but im confused what im doing wrong with my audio levels. I normalize my audio tracks , first i add some dbs to each audio track to get them into the yellow and not peak into red. Then i use the master audio level track thing and do the same. Whhen im on youtube i have the audio level in the middle, i find that other videos are loud but mine seems kind of quiet but i dont know what im doing wrong :S im extremely new to sony vegas , here is a video for example im not looking for views or subs though so dont sub or anything.

    Just to be clear here, have you done this YT rendering before now? Are you using the same render template?

    There is something in your render workflow that is further Normalising DOWNWARDS your render.

    That video seems plenty loud enough to me. If you want to compress the dynamics a bit you can put Wave Hammer Surround on the Master Audio Bus and use the Volume Maximizer tab to increase the perceived loudness by lowering the Threshold which will compress the lower sounds making them louder.
