NUGEN Audio to Host Live Panel on Dialog Intelligibility...

NUGEN Audio will host Can You Hear Me Clearly, an online panel discussion on speech intelligibility and why it matters, on Tuesday, July 8 at 2 p.m. EDT (7 p.m. BST, 10 a.m. PDT). NUGEN Audio CMO Sophie Guest will chair the event, with AMPS Vice Chair Kate Davis, Netflix's Ozzie Sutherland and NUGEN's Freddy Vinehill-Cliffe participating in the discussion. Among the topics to be covered are what does dialog intelligibility mean? and how are speech clarity and loudness related?

The team will also provide an overview of NUGEN Audio's new speech intelligibility plug-in, DialogCheck, and how users can benefit from adding it to their audio workflows. A mono, stereo and multichannel meter, DialogCheck provides an objective measure of the perceived clarity of spoken word content in an audio file for post-production, film, television, radio, podcasting and game audio environments.

Additionally, the panel will dive into the complexities of speech intelligibility considerations beyond just an actor's ability to speak clearly and the skills engineers should hone to make them experts in this arena.

Interested attendees must register in advance to receive a unique Zoom link and will be able to participate in an interactive Q&A following the panel discussion and DialogCheck demo. Everyone who registers will receive a special NUGEN discount code, and all attendees will be entered in an exclusive drawing taking place during the live event.
