Need To Get Your Next Release LOUD For Streaming? You Should Watch This...

How loud is modern music compared to 80's/90's/00's?.. and what LUFS should you master to in 2022? I measured the LUFS of 60 best selling songs (over 4 decades) just to know what LUFS to master to .. What lufs should I master to 2022 is probably one of the most asked audio related questions in google and youtube.. and I decided to see if I could answer that for myself! My name is Paul Third and I am a Scottish youtuber / audio engineer / mixing engineer / audio geek. I mostly cover audio engineering related content ranging from audio plugin shootouts / plugin comparisons (acustica audio plugins, universal audio etc etc) to actual analog vs digital / gear vs plugins plugin tests via access analog and mix analog. I even include ddmf plugindoctor tutorials in my plugin reviews so you can be your very own plugin tester and experiment and understand whats actually going on under the hood. I also discuss digital music distribution from time to time and like to give my viewpoint on online music distributors such as onerpm and distrokid. All of my audio blind tests involving music production software are conducted in avid pro tools 2021 which is my main daw and I also use HOFA blind test 4U as my blind test software. In terms of my audio interface I record and monitor through my audient id44 and use an audio technica AT2050 for all of my voice overs.
