Learn to monitor audio through your headphones so that what you hear is what you'll getLearn to set levels by ear rather than by eye. Watch the actors instead of the meters. Adjust your headphone level so that your 0 VU reference tone (-8 on the Nagra) sounds as loud in your head as a loud telephone conversation. Like those phone calls that make you pull the handset a little bit away from your ear. But NOT rock concert, painful LOUD! Just slightly uncomfortable. Dialogue is not the same as pure tone, so that when you monitor normal dialogue at correct record levels (around -10 to -6 on the Nagra), it should sound like a pleasant phone chat. Shouts and emphasized vocals should jar you a little, but your levels should only briefly exceed 0dB on the Nagra, or bounce into the red on a normal VU meter. |
