Some people say that loudness correction controls the levels over different frequencies (like a bandpass), while others say that loudness correction make explosions and whispers on a movie the same level.

By level I mean what we call volume

I need this last one on my Windows (to make explosions and whispers on a movie the same level), so I don't have to keep rolling the mouse wheel up and down a hundred times during a 45 minute movie.

But it's quite hard when I see no consensus on the area.

  • I tried enabling that Windows default enhancement, but no difference.

  • MPC-HC has this Normalize thing, that doesn't do anything other than amplify everything

  • I have this Equalizer APO software, that has a loudness thing... But since I'm here, you know the result

Anything definitive about the matter ?

Using various MPC-HC settings on diff. machines, I control my similar issue here:

MPC-HC (64-bit) 1.7.9 > Options\Internal Filters\Audio Switcher\ "Enable custom channel mapping"

And set proper input channels according to hardware. (changes of cables whilst MPC-HC is running will cause HDMI and/or optical connection to re-set unwanted defaults).

In a 5.1 environment, the dialogs come mainly to center clear to understand, whilst other sounds are "surrounding you".

When (by default) mixed into stereo you suffer with the scroll wheel... time to check again and set proper input again.
