Limiter

PreSonus

Limiter² is a brickwall limiting processor designed to prevent output signal clipping and maximize signals with very dynamic peaks. It features optional K-System metering and offers two processing modes: Mode A for clean, distortion-free limiting with slightly slower response, and Mode B for faster reaction time with potential minimal distortion depending on settings.

Key Features

01Brickwall limiting processor
02Input Gain (0-18 dB) and Ceiling (-12 to 0 dB) controls
03Threshold relative to Ceiling with automatic make-up gain
04Two processing modes: Mode A (clean/slower) and Mode B (fast/slight distortion)
05True Peak detection for inter-sample peak protection
06Soft Clip to reduce square wave clipping characteristics
07K-System metering options (K-14, K-20, K-12) plus Peak/RMS metering
08External sidechain capability

Things to Try

  • 01Use Mode A for clean limiting on mastering chains where distortion must be avoided
  • 02Enable True Peak mode when working with digital audio to protect against inter-sample peaks
  • 03Apply Soft Clip engagement to reduce square wave clipping artifacts when the limiter is engaged
  • 04Select Fast attack with K-20 metering for precision loudness control in mastering workflows
