Automatic detection of audio compression parameters

摘要

For a media clip that includes audio content, a novel method for performing dynamic range compression of the audio content is presented. The method performs an analysis of the audio content. Based on the analysis of the audio content, the method generates a setting for an audio compressor that compresses the dynamic range of the audio content. The generated setting includes a set of audio compression parameters that include a noise gating threshold parameter (“noise gate”), a dynamic range compression threshold parameter (“threshold”), and a dynamic range compression ratio parameter (“ratio”).

1. A method for compressing a dynamic range of an audio content, the method comprising:
receiving, at a device, the audio content; determining a target range of the audio content based on predefined parameters; analyzing the audio content in order to identify a detected range according to a peak level and a floor level of the audio content; generating a set of audio compression parameters based on the peak level and floor level of the audio content, wherein at least one audio compression parameter is a ratio parameter for expressing a difference between the target range and the detected range; and compressing the dynamic range of the audio content by using the set of audio compression parameters.
