How to Fix Restaurant BGM Audio Quality [Lounge Preset Guide]

Common BGM Problems in Restaurants and Bars#

If you run a cafe, bar, or restaurant with background music, you've probably experienced these issues:

• Bass too loud -- conversations become difficult
• Volume jumps between songs -- constantly reaching for the volume knob
• Poor audio quality -- streaming directly from Spotify or YouTube without any optimization

The Lounge Preset Solution#

DeckReady's Lounge preset was designed specifically for this use case.

What It Does#

Processing	Effect
Low-end cut	Reduces frequencies below 100 Hz by -4 dB. Tames heavy bass so conversations stay clear
Volume normalization	Unifies all tracks to -16 LUFS. Every song plays at the same volume
Presence adjustment	Gentle mid-high frequency boost. Music sounds pleasant as background audio
Dynamics preservation	Light compression. Natural musical flow is maintained

How to Use It#

1. Upload your playlist tracks to DeckReady

Select the Lounge / BGM preset 3. Download processed files 4. Load onto a USB drive or NAS and play in your venue

The Before and After Difference#

Before (unprocessed):

• Track A is -10 LUFS, Track B is -20 LUFS -- 10 dB volume gap
• Bass resonates through walls
• Customers can't hear each other

After (processed):

• All tracks unified at -16 LUFS -- virtually zero volume difference
• Low-end cut keeps conversations clear
• Music blends naturally into the background

For Cafe, Bar, and Restaurant Owners#

DeckReady offers a free tier that handles up to 5 tracks per month. Try it with a handful of songs from your current playlist and hear the difference immediately.

The Pro plan provides unlimited processing for your entire music library -- ideal for playlists of 100+ tracks that need consistent volume and tonal balance across every song.
