The practice of focusing on loudness in audio mastering can be traced back to the introduction of the compact disc, [3] but also existed to some extent when the vinyl phonograph record was the primary released recording medium and when 7-inch singles were played on jukebox machines in clubs and bars.
Compact Cassettes may have a response extending up to 15 kHz at full (0 dB) recording level. [17] At lower levels (−10 dB), cassettes are typically limited to 20 kHz due to self-erasure of the tape media. The frequency response for a conventional LP player might be 20 Hz to 20 kHz, ±3 dB.
Another type of normalization is based on a measure of loudness, wherein the gain is changed to bring the average loudness to a target level. This average may be approximate, such as a simple measurement of average power (e.g. RMS), or more accurate, such as a measure that addresses human perception e.g. that defined by EBU R128 and offered by ReplayGain, Sound Check and GoldWave.

Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), however, is the ratio between the noise floor and an arbitrary reference level or alignment level. In "professional" recording equipment, this reference level is usually +4 dBu (IEC 60268-17), though sometimes 0 dBu (UK and Europe – EBU standard Alignment level).
