Lesson 7 of 8
Export and Loudness
A voice track is not finished until it plays at a consistent level in the environment where people will hear it.
Active reading
Understand the idea
Avoid clipping, leave headroom and compare the voice against music or other program audio. Export in the format required by the destination rather than using one setting for everything.
Example
Before export, listen on headphones and a phone speaker, then check that narration remains clear without sudden jumps.
Practice
Apply this lesson to one real task you already have, then write down how you would verify the result.
Common mistake
Normalizing every file to maximum loudness without considering the destination.
Key takeaway
Export is part of quality control: level, format and playback context all matter.
