Match Loudness and gain slider

Post by fbc »

The command 'Match Loudness' moves the gain slider, but most time, you don't want this added gain and has to reset the slider to zero.
Please implement one or more of the following:
1) Shortcut to set gain to zero.
2) Leave the slider alone and just pop-up the value.
3) Match-loudness value displayed vith other statistics.

If you highlight the gain slider and press "home" on your keyboard the slider will return to zero.

I'm sorry to say it; but you are wrong on this:
Pressing 'Home' will move the slider to the top i.e. +15 (and 'End' will give you -15).
There is no easy way to obtain zero.

Trust me on this. This is our application :)

Do this.

1. Open Har-Bal and load a track.
2. Move the gain slider to any position other than zero.
3. Immediately press your "home" key on your keyboard.
4. The gain slider will move to zero.

If this is not happening on your program, I would suggest you send us an email with your registered customer name or number so we can take a look at your version.

Cheers

Sorry,
I was checking on my lap-top, that hasn't been updated. (still version 1.5)
Of course you are right, in version 1.51, 'Home' will return to zero.
But back to the initial question: why move the slider, when we most of the time, want to move it back again.

There are a multitude of reasons why would use the gain function. I guess the most important would be the fact that our customers requested it. Maybe an engineer wants to make adjustments to a single track. The bottom line is this. It is there if you need it.

Yes, of course we need a gain control; my request was, not to adjust gain automaticly, when using the 'Match Loadness' function.
