DRiT! vs Leveler

◆ Bring More Light and Color to Your Videos “DRiT! HDR for the rest of us.” makes it easy to convert SDR videos into HDR. You can enjoy HDR video and color grading without needing in-depth knowledge of dynamic range or color spaces. ◆ Three Modes for Different Needs ・AtEase: Leave everything to the app, from conversion and processing to saving. ・Standard Edition: Preview the finished result before deciding whether to save it. ・Pro Edition: Fine-tune the look with your favorite colors and choose the output dynamic range. ◆ AtEase Simply select an SDR video, and everything from HDR conversion and processing to saving it to the Photos app is done automatically. No complicated knowledge or settings required. Anyone can easily create beautiful-looking videos. ◆ Standard Edition Play the original and converted videos simultaneously to compare the results, then save the finished video to the Photos app or discard it. You can also view detailed analysis of the selected video and detailed information about the generated video. ◆ Pro Edition (*1) In addition to HDR output, you can also create videos for SDR viewing environments. Register your own LUTs in the library and use them for color grading while converting videos to SDR or HDR. ◆ For High-Quality Video Camera Users If you enjoy sharing videos shot with action cameras, gimbal cameras, camera-equipped drones, and similar devices on social media, but find their dedicated apps complicated or difficult to use—or simply want an easier way to get more out of your camera—give DRiT! a try. With cameras capable of 10-bit color or Log recording, you can take advantage of richer tonal gradations and complete the entire process, from converting your footage to HDR through saving it, using only your iPhone—even while traveling without a computer. ◆ For Users of Newer iPhones iPhones released in 2020 or later, excluding the SE series, can record HDR video when appropriately configured. Videos recorded in HDR do not need to be converted to HDR. Even with such videos, Pro Edition (*1) lets you use LUTs (Look-Up Tables) to give your footage a distinctive new look. A wide variety of LUTs are available commercially or for download, and Pro Edition also includes four sample LUTs specially adjusted for HDR. ◆ LUTs Included with Pro Edition ・Blue Breeze: Creates the fresh, crisp feeling of morning air. It also works especially well with skies, oceans, and similar scenes. ・Airy Day: Lifts darker areas while adding a slightly warmer tone for a light, airy look. Well suited to videos of children, pets, and everyday moments. ・Golden Hour: Emphasizes yellow-to-orange tones to create an evocative sunset look. Give it a try when you find yourself thinking, “It looked amazing in person, but the video just doesn’t capture it...” ・(Secret): A happy accident created during development. It was technically a failure, but we found it too amusing not to include. Try it yourself to discover what it does. :) *1: Pro Edition is a paid upgrade. It is currently available at a special launch price. The price is planned to change to the regular price with the next major feature update.

Leveler evens out the audio in your videos and recordings. Drop in a file, and a few seconds later you have a copy with smooth, consistent speech levels. The video itself is never re-encoded. It levels the way a careful audio engineer would: slowly, with a look ahead, and only when someone is speaking. Quiet passages come up, loud ones come down, and pauses stay quiet. There is no pumping, no breathing, and no squashed dynamics, because Leveler rides the level over seconds instead of reacting to every syllable. WHAT IT DOES • Levels MP4, MOV and M4V video, plus WAV, AIFF, M4A and MP3 audio • Copies the video stream through untouched, byte for byte. Only the audio track is replaced, and the two stay perfectly in sync • Lands on −16 LUFS with a −1 dBTP true-peak ceiling out of the box (the Apple Podcasts standard), with presets for YouTube, broadcast and more, or your own target • Ignores room tone, breaths and gaps between sentences, so background noise never swells up when you stop talking • Levels a 90-minute recording in seconds and queues several files at once OUTPUT • A new file next to the original (Mac) or in the Files app (iPhone and iPad) with “leveled” added to the name • Keep stereo as stereo, or mix down to mono • Optionally save a WAV of the leveled audio alongside a video • On iPhone and iPad, pick videos straight from your Photos library and save the leveled result back to Photos WHAT IT DOESN’T DO No EQ, no noise reduction, no compression. Just the level ride and a true-peak limiter at the ceiling you choose. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything happens on your device. Leveler has no account, no analytics and no network features.
