Oooh dont mention autoducking .. it usually sounds terrible on any system unless extremely subtle.. opportunity to effectively 'surf' the intros is destroyed..

In v3 and v4 Myriad uses the "Sweeper" level settings, as that is effectivly what they are.

In v5 much improved audio level control for Voice Tracking https://youtu.be/QL0BzPGwAIA

Slightly off topic but having applied normalisation to the voice tracks, is there a control somewhere that sets how much the music ducks under a voice track cart or are they treated as a sweeper and use that level control?

Lets do it

Thanks Peter :-)
Voice of Doom sounds like a great name for a syndicated show looking at world politics :-)

Yes good idea altho my mic is already processed so that would make 3.. and could create that voice of doom boom. Thanks again for your help. Overall Myriad is a gem when used creatively. I love it.

No problem.

I know they say don't double process, but if they do introduce it, leave yours on for a bit and see what you think. After all it's all about how it sounds, and a consistant output from your studio is the best idea.

Thanks David.
Solved the issue at my end over weekend. I added an extra limiter after my mixer at remote studio so I cant overcook my drops and beds etc which was a regular prob. So now my input from remote studio is consistent. If they introduce station reprocessing I will remove it.
Thanks for your help

Hi Peter,

There are settings at the station end for normalisation of the link when it is unpacked and placed onto the cart.
If you have access to the audiowall at the station, then you can use SmoothEdit to adjust the levels on the individual cart. Because of the settings being station wide, i'm afraid you do just have to be careful of the record levels at the remote end, remember once distortion is introduced, that can never be removed, but a quieter link might be increased by the normalisation settings in the database (also remember that it is Peak normalisation and with a lower recording level the noise floor is also increased). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_normalization

Thanks David. I must have the wrong version number then, must be V4 as I am remote voicetrackeing. I understand the need for  processing but it is what it is,, I process my mic and then try and line up the sound with the music levels. It sounds ok mist of the time but my question was,, can the recorded voicetrack level be adjusted remotely on the file before saving? Sometimes I overcook it and have to redo with a lower level, if I could reduce the level as a post editing process before saving that would be great. I will discuss the processer issue when appropriate.
Regards
Peter
