Dolby Atmos Music Loudness Checker

Check a binaural/stereo render of an Atmos music master against the −18 LUFS integrated target Apple/Dolby specify for Atmos streams.

Dolby Atmos Music (−18 LUFS) — target -18 LUFS (±1 LU), true peak ≤ -1 dBTP

Dolby Atmos Music delivery specifies −18 LUFS integrated, measured on the 5.1/binaural render — a full 4 LU quieter than a typical −14 stereo master. This preserves the extra dynamic range spatial mixes rely on. Run this on your binaural downmix as a pre-check.
