Show Notes
Usually on the show we’re talking about mastering music for CD, download and streaming, but there’s another important final destination for the audio we work on - broadcast.
And the difference with broadcast audio is - there are standards. Having said that, there often isn’t a dedicated mastering stage !
In this episode we dig into the whole fascinating topic with our guest Dallas Taylor from Defacto Sound, and host of the superb Twenty Thousand Hertz podcast. Dallas has a wealth of experience in sound design and mixing for broadcast on trailers and ads for shows like Game Of Thrones and games like Fallout, amongst many others.
In a wide-ranging conversation we talk about:
* Why sound design is like being a conductor
* American versus British mixing style in drama
* What are “emotional FX” ?
* The loudness wars in broadcast
* Dialnorm - what and why ?
* How to make dragons talk
