Abstract

See full text

Various aspects of this disclosure describe setting an audio compressor threshold using averaged audio measurements. Examples include calculating one or more average values of amplitude values of an audio file, and setting a threshold used in the audio compressor based on the calculated thresholds. Samples of the audio file with amplitude values above the threshold are attenuated, while samples of the audio file with amplitude values below the threshold are not attenuated. The threshold can be set equal to a calculated average value, or from a function of one or more calculated average values. Different audio channels comprising the audio file can be processed to set a respective compressor threshold for each audio channel.
