Addressing an element of editing that has become increasingly important for audio professionals, Nugen Audio’s latest speech intelligibility plug-in identifies poor dialogue clarity.
Making its IBC debut, DialogCheck is a mono, stereo and multichannel dialogue clarity meter and provides an objective measure of speech audio intelligibility in a portion of the audio clip or through an entire project.
The company says that although poor speech clarity is commonly cited as a major source of television audience complaints, engineers typically listen in acoustically specialised environments. DialogCheck provides an objective measure of speech, enabling users to evaluate their audio to identify sections of speech that might be difficult for listeners to understand and allowing engineers to make informed decisions about appropriate tweaks.
It features more than a dozen interface tools, including an integrated real-time bar meter and history graph, while a distribution view and numerical statistical values provide an overview of the speech intelligibility of the entire program. Furthermore, the tracking function syncs the views with the audio playback in the DAW, while ‘Macro View’ highlights the current audio section within the wider historical view.
