## How it works

1. **Open the mixer** — Every track gets a fader, pan, mute, solo and a live meter. The master strip shows loudness while you play.
2. **Measure and match** — Measure reads integrated loudness, true peak and range for the whole video. Match loudness sets it for YouTube, TikTok, Spotify, podcasts or broadcast.
3. **Shape the sound** — Give a voice clarity with an EQ you drag, even it out with a compressor, and keep the output under a true-peak limiter. Export the video, or the mix and its stems as WAV.

## Why CutLuma for this

- **Measured to the standard** — Loudness follows ITU-R BS.1770 and EBU R 128, with true peak by oversampling, tested against the standard’s reference signals.
- **What you hear is what exports** — The preview and the exported file run the same signal path, so a level you set is the level you get.
- **Presets in plain words** — Voice clarity, podcast voice, music bed under speech, warm, de-harsh and more, each one editable.
