the same in the imported file. This includes the acoustic settings, groups etc. The
loudspeakers and subwoofers in the layout are placed automatically into the new hive
format in GLM 4. You may feel the need to rearrange this automatic layout. If there is a
need to edit the layout, do this by selecting the ‘Setup’ menu and clicking the ‘Edit Layout’
menu item.
7.2 Calibration of SPL to Loudness Standards
The ‘Standard Loudness SPL Calibration’ feature allows calibrating the listening level in
accordance with digital audio loudness standards, such as ATSC A/85 and EBU R128. The
calibrated listening level is important for judging correctly aspects of audio quality, such as the
speech intelligibility, spectral balance, platform compatibility, etc.
