This is what the Studio One manual says now in 2022 : “The K-20 meter is for use with wide-dynamic-range material, e.g., large theater mixes, ‘daring home theater’ mixes, audiophile music, classical (symphonic) music, hopefully future ‘audiophile’ pop music mixed in 5.1, and so on. The K-14 meter is for the vast majority of high-fidelity productions for the home, e.g., home theater and pop music (which includes the wide variety of moderately compressed music, from folk music to hard rock). And the K-12 meter is for productions to be dedicated for broadcast.”

@TwstedTV2 жыл бұрын
@@thlgnd Actually there was a standard. Way before everyone had studios in their own homes / apartments / basements. Back in the day when people had to actually go to professional recording studios and pay $100 to $250 an Hr to produce music, the record label would send your DAT "Digital Audio Tape" to a mastering plant to get mastered, and it was the Mastering Engineer who set the standard for the level before your song got printed onto records, cd's and cassettes. google a real mastering engineer by the name of Don Grossinger. One of the legends from back in the day. He set the standards of music back in the day...... These days, that all went to shit, with every joe, dick and harry claiming to be mastering engineers. (too funny). Now a days, every child in the world has a "so called" recording studio, or studio... to produce music and they release their own music on places like DistroKID. And there is no way for anyone to tame their levels, hence why the HUGE loudness wars happened. Because kids still believe that louder is better. NO ONE and I MEAN NO ONE is respecting the LUFS Standards set in todays world of 2021. The rules are there, the DAW companies even placed LUFS meters in their DAWs, and people STILL DON'T respect the rules put in place... Because no one gives a crap anymore. People these days only care about how loud their mix are compared to other people. Hence again "The Loudness Wars" 🤷♂️🤦♂️ And as far as you saying that "there are no standards in music. film yes, music no." is complete false...!! Why do you think Apple set rules for submitting songs to Apple music at -14 LUFS ?? and Why Spotify set their submission rules to -16 LUFS and youtube music is ruled at -14 LUFS. There are rules & standards, its that no one is respecting the rules put into place, because no one gives a crap, everyone wants to do they own rules. God, I miss the 80's......... 🤦♂️ So since there are no longer gate keepers for mastering levels, because these days any 5-year old child can claim to be mastering engineers (which is hilarious), has no one to tame their music levels. In the 80's there were never ANY problems recording music levels, or LUFS or loudness wars. however you want to put it. Because people back then knew what the hell they were doing. and there was mastering engineers that were treated by record labels as gate keepers of music volume. Before ANYONE could release ANY music into the public, it has to go through the record label & mastering engineers first. That is no longer the case because now every joe, dick and harry can claim to be mastering engineers and release music at a extreme high volume, with no care in the world because they can, because there is no longer REAL MASTERING ENGINEERS..... those days are now long gone. I have 45 years in the music industry and have seen go from great to complete shit.... And yes I worked as an audio engineer in very famous studios back in the day. Way before people started to get their so called "Home Studios"...... I lived throughout those eras and seen the industry change. Now these days, everyone is trying to find ways to go above and beyond unison, so they can be louder than everyone else as we continue on the loudness wars. Again, We NEVER EVER had these problems in the 80's, and its one of the main reasons why people these days love 80's music. It contains proper level and dynamics.... they days its all about noise & volume.

Never met him but have communicated with him at various times.Oneof the greats in Mastering alongside that of Glenn Meadows, both great guys! *I've just been experimenting with the 'Level Meter,' and if you select the dropdown menu there are presets, which when selected explains their usage.

@@DEADRECKONINGOFFICIAL Apologies on my end for not being clear. I am talking about being in the green zone with the K14 meter, not the K20. With the K20 meter, being in the green zone will feel like working on a really quiet mix for a song. But having a K20 meter hovering around red and not knowing the actual loudness won't help a lot either. I know this is a "K metering for dummies" video so I wouldn't wanna go into depth regarding the topic. But just to make you understand better, the K meter is for loudness which is different than peaks. Loudness is about how loud or soft we would perceive a song, overall. When you talk about a typical metal track (I apologise for stereotyping the genre to make a point) you are probably talking of a song pretty much full of Drum hits and guitars riffing with a vocalist singing( or screaming). Such a song has a lot of stuff playing almost all the time. A K meter would indicate the overall loudness of the song being pretty close to the louder parts, as there aren't many soft parts in the song in the first place.

She can arm tracks, and her I/O settings are set up, but her microphone is disabled. We tried manage aufio devices, sound settings, troubleshooting, but we cant seem to enable it. I remember I had that problem too when I was starting on a windows computer, but I've forgotten how to fix it. Apparently the microphone is only disabled in studio one, it is enabled in the settings themselves, and it does pick up sound, it just wont go into studio one. Its disabled in the I/O page. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Does this relate to LUFS at all? I can't help but think it does, because if you're finishing a master with 14dB headroom, that's right around -13 below 0, which is usually cited as the LUFS target level of -13dB LUFS The K-System meter seems to move like it's somewhere between a dBFS meter and a VU meter. Best of both worlds? That alone has me interested.
@DeltaWhiskeyBravo1357910 ай бұрын

@beatweezl3 жыл бұрын
Joe, your method may be right but according to the Studio One User's Manual, the K20 system is more specifically designed for higher dynamic mixing like orchestral or movie soundtracks. K14 for modern rock and pop/electronic music, and K12 for broadcast/voiceover audio book type stuff. I think that's why your mix is showing quite a bit of red. I personally would stay with K14 with probably less red and master with K14 as well.

@fredphoesh3 жыл бұрын
I don't get it. Joe, you say you get more headroom on a k20, but that depends on where you are "aiming at". Where does one aim? The K meter does not show peaks, so you don't know what to aim for because you don't know how much your peaks will be above the average that it shows. So why not just use RMS which DOES show peaks and aim for say -2 or -3 for your peaks. That's all you need worry about, the rest will obviously not clip. With K20 clipping happens at about +8 it seems... so I don't get the point of another 12 db above that if it's useless anyway!

@srhodes69633 жыл бұрын
Why can’t we have a meter that automatically sets an ideal starting point that we can then adjust with the faders for balance? In other words, you have max volume on each track without clipping by default and you work from there. Same thing on the master. That may not be ideal for every professional scenario, but just put a toggle on the function. This way the average home producer making demos can get on with their lives and forget about all of these complications

I didn't press "dislike" but I did not find it helpful to explain the most basic thing. If choosing a metering system is simply a different way to measure the same sound, why would using a K20 give you more headroom than using any other meter. It does not... so what is the difference between peaking at +8 on a k20 meter and peaking at, say, -2 or -5 if you like on a RMS meter? I don't get the advantage of using the K system.
