Why are some audio tracks lower than others?
You may think that you should have all of your track volumes at the same level. WRONG. You need to keep your audio tracks balanced and flowing; just like your footage. This means that some audio tracks may need to be lower than others. This is especially true with voice over talent that have soft voices.
What happens when you listen to sound at different volume?
Essentially, as the actual loudness of a sound changes, the perceived loudness our brains hear changes at a different rate, depending on the frequency. This means you could listen to a mix at low volume and think it sounds great, but then listen to the same mix at a high volume and think the EQ is completely off.
How to make quiet parts louder and loud parts quieter?
Failing this, one way to bring the quietest and loudest parts together on the same track is by using a compression effect. What this does is proportionally reduce any volume louder than a certain level. That point is called the threshold, and amount of reduction is called the ratio.
What are some examples of psychoacoustic sound design?
For example, if you incorporate the natural reflex of the ear to a very loud hit (which is to shut down slightly to protect itself) into the designed dynamics of the original sound itself, the brain will still perceive the sound as loud even if it’s actually played back relatively quietly.
