Description: Have you ever hosted a livestream with remote guests on a service like Streamyard, and then learned in horror from your audience that they can barely hear one person while another person is super loud? In this episode, we have a look at one way to set your audio levels when you have multiple participants in a livestream on services like Streamyard, Restream.io, Riverside.fm, and other cloud based streaming services. Instead of using simple peak meters, we demonstrate how to use a loudness meter which is much better at getting everyone’s audio levels to the same target so that your audience can focus on the stream. If you’d like to learn how to make great dialogue audio for your film and video projects, please have a look at my courses at school.learnlightandsound.com including processing dialogue audio in Adobe Audition and DaVinci Resolve/Fairlight, recording sound, how to use the Zoom F4, F6, F8, and F8n, and how to get the most from the Sound Devices MixPre series of recorders. Our latest course is Sound for Live Streaming with the ATEM Mini. Support my work creating videos by donating at ko-fi.com/curtisjudd Gear used or mentioned in this episode.
