Limiter

Sound Processing

A limiter is a compressor where the ratio is fixed as "Infinity:1"  and it is a fixed volume control tool with the setting of maximum volume to avoid any clipping caused by the signal dynamics or peaks.

Parameter NameParameter RangeParameter Definition
EnabledEnable/DisableEnables or disables the DSP feature.
Threshold-60 – 12 dBThe threshold control sets the level at which the limiter is engaged. It will be limited only when a level passes above the threshold. If the threshold level is set at say -10 dB, only signal peaks that extend above that level will be limited.
The rest of the time, no limiter will be taking place.
Attack Time1 – 1000 secondIt is the time how quick the limiter engages the limiting function.
Release Time1 – 1000 secondIt is the time it takes for the signal to go from the limited "or attenuated" state back to the original signal.
