Content Aware Audio Ducking

摘要

A novel audio ducking method that is aware of the loudness levels of the audio content is provided. The method specifies a minimum loudness separation between audio tracks that are designated as masters and audio tracks that are designated as slaves. The method attenuates the volume of the slave tracks in order to provide at least the minimum loudness separation between the slave tracks and the master tracks. The amount of attenuation for a slave is determined based on the loudness levels of the slave and of a master.

1. A method comprising:
receiving a minimum loudness separation requirement between two audio tracks; determining a loudness of a first audio track and a loudness for a second audio track; and reducing the loudness of the first audio track in order to meet the minimum loudness separation requirement, wherein the reduction is based on the detected loudness for the first and second audio tracks.
