"Rivendell, being a *professional* automation system" -> That's one
reason more why Rivendell might need Loudness Normalization.
Peak normalization does not affect the "sound" of a piece in any way,
Loudness Normalization does exactly the same.
Of course, if everything went through the prod room before being
imported, there would be no need for any normalization at all,
Big disagree. In times of the loudness war it is even more necessary to
have a proper (loudness) normalization.
Those days mastering is often done by teenagers who can use some DAW
software but don't have any clue of mastering or for what it really is
needed.
but in the real world that just doesn't happen, so peak normalization
is the compromise with minimal damage.
Loudnes normalization doesn't do any damage to the audio.
Maybe you mixed up normalization and compression.
