Nugen Audio to host live panel on dialog intelligibility

Nugen Audio will host “Can You Hear Me Clearly”, an online panel discussion on speech intelligibility and why it matters, on July 8, 2025, at 2 p.m. EDT (7 p.m. BST, 10 a.m. PDT). Nugen Audio CMO Sophie Guest will chair the event, with Association of Motion Picture Sound (AMPS) Vice Chair Kate Davis, Netflix’s Ozzie Sutherland and Nugen’s Freddy Vinehill-Cliffe participating in the discussion. Among the topics to be covered are “what does dialog intelligibility mean?” and “how are speech clarity and loudness related?”.

The team will also provide an overview of Nugen Audio’s new speech intelligibility plug-in, DialogCheck. A mono, stereo and multichannel meter, DialogCheck provides an objective measure of the perceived clarity of spoken word content in an audio file for post-production, film, television, radio, podcasting and game audio environments. Additionally, the panel will dive into the complexities of speech intelligibility considerations beyond just an actor’s ability to speak clearly and the skills engineers should hone to make them experts in this arena.

Interested attendees must register in advance at https://nugenaudio.com/dialog-roundtable/ to receive a Zoom link and will be able to participate in an interactive Q&A following the panel discussion and DialogCheck demo. Everyone who registers will receive a special Nugen discount code, and all attendees will be entered in an exclusive drawing taking place during the live event.

In addition to serving as AMPS Vice Chair, Kate Davis is also a multi-award-winning Dubbing Mixer/Re-recording Mixer and Head of Audio at Azimuth Post Production in London. She has worked in post-production audio for over twenty years, with a wealth of experience spanning drama, factual and entertainment.

As Sound Technology & Post Workflows Manager at Netflix, Ozzie Sutherland is considered the company’s “go-to” guy for pro audio. Based in Los Angeles, he has extensive technical expertise in audio engineering and mixing, and has worked with some of the leading industry sound professionals: mixers, engineers, sound designers and music producers.

The unofficial “face” of Nugen Audio, Product Specialist Freddy Vinehill-Cliffe, can be found at most every event the brand attends. Also a mastering engineer, he is knowledgeable about loudness and has an affinity for solving audio problems. A leader at the helm of the company’s marketing team, Nugen Audio Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) Sophie Guest also moonlights as a radio presenter and voiceover artist.
