Use this music calculation for a precise timing, pitch, tuning, MIDI, dynamics, or audio-engineering conversion under a stated tempo and reference convention.

Measured Lufs (LUFS)

Required number input.

Target Lufs (LUFS)

Required number input.

Signed gain in dB required to move a measured integrated LUFS value to a chosen target, before true-peak limiting. The tool evaluates the supplied inputs together and returns the named outputs below; it does not infer omitted operating conditions or change the units shown.^[1]

Gain Decibels (dB)

The resulting gain decibels returned as a number.

• Results depend on tuning reference, temperament, note naming, tempo map, meter, MIDI implementation, sample rate, level reference, weighting, and artistic performance. Equal temperament and ideal timing are not universal musical requirements.
• Use finite inputs in the displayed units and preserve more precision than the final presentation requires. Independently verify safety-critical, financial, compliance, or production decisions.

Keep the reference pitch and timing grid explicit, verify against the target instrument or DAW, and use listening tests for perceptual decisions.

• Pitch Bend Semitone Range 14bit

  Signed semitone offset from a 14-bit MIDI pitch-bend value using center 8192 and a specified full-scale range.

• Cents Between Two Frequencies

  Signed interval in cents from a positive reference frequency to a positive target frequency.

• Crest Factor Peak To Rms Db

  Crest factor in dB from positive peak and RMS amplitudes.
