Waves have released L4 Ultramaximizer, available for $49.99 a perpetual licence and via subscription.
L4 Ultramaximizer is a modern adaptive limiter designed by Waves Audio, offering a new approach to loudness for contemporary music production, moving beyond the loudness of the 90s and 2000s.
The plugin features five unique limiting algorithms, including Modern, Aggressive, Smooth, Safe, and the classic L2 sound, catering to various musical styles and needs.
L4 includes adaptive clipping and release controls, upward compression, ultra-low latency, true peak limiting, LUFS metering, a gain-match button, oversampling, and two GUI views for flexible use.
Designed for both mixing and mastering, L4 Ultramaximizer is praised by professionals for its transparency, ease of use, and ability to enhance music with more low end, transient punch, and overall impact for streaming.
Today’s sound is deeper. Bigger. More dynamic. Artists grab attention with more than just volume – with nuance, impact and feel. Limiters need to enhance music, not just squash it.
