The same principle should apply when it comes to processing audio.

Or, vice-versa: a volume level that's comfortable during loud scenes is too low for scenes with conversational dialog. Well, the latest update to the [European Broadcasting Union](https://www.ebu.ch/home)’s R 128 recommendation, issued on November 10, 2023, takes us one step closer to solving the problem.

This time, in Part 2, we’ll take a closer look at the challenges content creators and broadcasters face when managing loudness in a file-based workflow. Are there different requirements? Are all loudness control techniques created equal?
