On December 15, 2010, the CALM Act (Commercial Advertisement Loudness Mitigation)
was enacted into law! Subsequently, this past December the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) adapted regulations as to controlling the relative loudness of
commercials based on ATSC Recommended Practices A/85 – Techniques for Establishing
and Maintaining Audio Loudness for Digital Television. In this second of a planned series of
programs, we will provide a brief synopsis as to how loudness should be measured and how
consistent loudness levels can be maintained using the practices described in ATSC A/85
and then segue into the FCC parameters and mandates that will be required by Broadcasters
and Media content providers by December 13, 2012.
