11:38: 😁 So, I looked into this briefly and it seems like SWS doesn’t expose “Create short-term/momentary graph in selected envelope” for scripts. Not via actions; not via Lua functions. We could do most of the heavy lifting ourselves and sort of recreate this feature in a script, but it would probably be slower than SWS (which is in C++), so not worth it. Maybe the best answer is: This could be a feature request for SWS itself.

This is the best day in a very long time. Thanks for the shoutout + doing this tutorial. Watching it gets me thinking! Why isnt there a plugin that does this automatically? A LUFS pilotsignal that ducks the volume + 300-ish ms look ahead...?

Best solution right here! Tho I guess it's decades until it finally can be fully automated. Does anyone know of tv shows, series, movies, or serious podcast or radio stations that use any form of gain riding?
@IDDQDSound Жыл бұрын
Every podcast and film I worked on ever! Maybe not syllable-by-syllable riding but yeah in film you have standards for dialogue loudness, so a whispered lines comes up, shouted line goes down. For podcasts, same thing, people tend to start quiet then warm up and get excited and start shouting, or they move away from the mic, so all of those things require riding the gain. If you want something more automated than that you can use a gain riding plugin, or a very soft compressor with the threshold somewhere that it's always attacking or releasing.

This is a game-changer for me. Thanks! When using Waves Vocal Rider, the biggest issue I have had is that when I want the dynamics preserved, specifically when I want the end of a phrase to naturally fade a bit, Vocal Rider wipes out the natural fade by bringing up the level. With your version of Kenny’s method, do you fix that by editing the automation to change it from “riding up” when you want a fade down?
@IDDQDSound2 жыл бұрын
If I want a fade down then yeah. I usually do like the fade up (or at least in this track I felt I needed it.) Tbh Vocal Rider is what I use and like, and I can have it write to the volume envelope and edit that! Because it has range sliders I tend to find it more practical :)

I was wondering about this with Kenny’s video and you’ve definitely confirmed it for me - The loudness is based on the clip, not the output. That confuses me, because it does not do what I’d do when I ride a fader to record automation, listen after the FX. Is there a reason for why that is? I would expect a loudness envelope that doesn’t consider my plugins, especially compression, to have exaggerated level differences compared to the compressed signal. Or am I overthinking this?
@IDDQDSound6 ай бұрын
yeah it's based on the clip, because to process and calculate loudness offline it reads the file, and doesn't read the fx. The kenny method will read the output if it's last in the chain. So it does have that benefit. ie you can put it as the last fx on your master, or as the last fx of any track, etc.

Your source audio may be too quiet. Since values are logarithmic, boosting your volume will give a more detailed graph, but even if you don't, you can adjust the amplitude after you make it an automation item to scale it up!
