Limiter

The primary function of the Limiter is to prevent the audio signal from exceeding a certain threshold. It does this by reducing the gain of the signal whenever it goes over.

Parameters​

Send Level​

Reduces the gain of the audio input to the effect. Unlike adjusting Dry / Wet, modulating send level preserves any audio tails.

Pre Gain​

Sets the level of the signal before it hits the limiter. This is useful for boosting the level of a signal without clipping, or for preventing a signal from clipping when it is too loud.

Threshold​

The ceiling, in dB, that the signal will not be allowed to exceed.

Release​

The time it takes for the gain to return to normal after the signal falls below the threshold.
