true:level is a metering plug-in that visualizes the interplay between loudness and dynamics in a meaningful way, making it immediately apparent if a mix is ready to publish.
true:level comes with a range of predefined references – including the loudness standards of publishing platforms and dynamic references for different genres. Aiming for these reference values avoids unpleasant surprises when you publish your a mix. To ensure consistency across an entire project, you can load up to 8 reference tracks to compare your mix with.
true:level makes the link between loudness and dynamics of a mix immediately apparent and provides you with a holistic overview of both values. The calculated reference zone is specified either by your chosen loudness and dynamics reference or the custom reference tracks that you’ve uploaded. In case you need a little guidance regarding how to modify your track to bring it within the reference zone, just hit the Level Check. That will provide you with hints as to what actions are needed.
All displayed readouts as well as their visualizations are designed so that you don’t have to second-guess what you are seeing – or become distracted by too many details. true:level’s key readouts are supported by target indicators, allowing you see if your track is close to the values of your chosen reference.
