L-Normalizer

The next logical step after releasing the loudness meter application, ALM 5.1, was to create an affordable, cross-platform loudness normalizing tool: the L-Normalizer. This particular application can be very useful and helpful for audio engineers working in post production and broadcasting environments.

The major two steps of the workflow consists in analyzing the audio material and rendering an improved one. If you choose to normalize your material, you can pick between program loudness or short term loudness if your materials are shorter than 30 seconds. Also, a True Peak Limiter is available with variable knee width, release time and true peak.
