Why do the Ads Sometimes Sound Louder Than the Programmes?


TVNZ does not increase the volume of advertisements when they are screened. However, it is common practice in the television production industry for the sound tracks of commercials and some promotions to be compressed. The sound level of quieter passages is increased so there is more sound power in the range where the ear is most sensitive. The objective is to give those items a greater audible impact. In contrast, many television programmes do not have their sound compressed to the same extent and therefore, the differences between programmes and other material can be quite marked.

Unfortunately, the compression methods vary according to the production house and it isn't possible to predict in advance what the differences may be and take appropriate corrective action. In addition, it is now apparent that viewers perceive sound levels differently; what may be annoying for some is not of concern to others.
