What is new:
New improved Limiting Engine
New intuitive GUI and DAW plugin
Wide angle, high contrast screen
Limiter gain reduction range
Faster release time
Input/Output link
Redesigned colour section with colour MS matrix
Limiter sidechain with highpass filter and high frequency emphasis
New, redesigned Clipper section
The sound of the Limiter 2.0 is of course based on the quality of its hardware design but all the control and user interactions are performed in the digital domain.
This allows us to incorporate options and possibilities not found in any standard analog limiter:
Save and recall presets
Instant reset of all parameters
Rapid, precise and repeatable adjustments
Precisely linked stereo operation with the ease of a single control
DAW automation
Comprehensive metering operations based on high quality A/D conversion and DSP
Main features
The digital section of the Mastering Limiter is based around two high speed, 32- bit micro-controllers, with dedicated Main features
The Limiter has 3 functionalities that are essential to make a perfect master.
All of them are recallable by the internal memory and a plugin that also handles automation.
Analog Mastering Limiter 2.0:
100% analog signal path
intelligent, manual and BPM release
new side-chain mode with HPF and MID Boost section
variable mix between limiting and clipping
new redesigned clipper section with 2 independent clipper sections and trim
flexible link mode for compensating input and output level
Colour section
New redesigned colour section with MS matrix
Two colour modules introducing different saturation that can be used simultaneously
Colour 1 with Majority of odd harmonics
Colour 2 with Majority of even harmonics
Both colour sections can be internally EQ`ed so for example you can present more odd harmonics in the low end to give the mix more bite and sweeten the highs with the even harmonics at the top end.
Metering
