TBProAudio have released LAxLimit5, available for €99.00.
What’s new in version 5:
- Refreshed Interface: A modernized look and feel, complete with updated GUI layouts and customizable color schemes.
- Full Serial and Parallel Functionality: Features a second parallel limiter for complete stereo control or a second serial limiter of extended limiting applications.
- Enhanced Performance: Upgraded oversampling algorithms and significantly reduced plugin latency.
- Adaptive Attack Control: Automatically adjusts ratio of clipper/limiter levels based on internal transient detection for improved transient handling.
- Enhancer: Drives signal though a soft clipper/wave shaper for more volume.
- Dithering and Noise Shaping: Dithering helps to preserve (perceived) detail and resolution by reducing quantize distortion.
LAxLimit is an advanced look ahead, wideband linked-stereo limiter including ISP (inter sample peak) detection and oversampling.
As the successor to our widely popular LA xLimit IV, LA xLimit V offers enhanced control over transients and adaptive release curves.
Designed for today’s mixing and mastering demands, it delivers exceptional versatility across a broad range of limiting applications, with a strong focus on minimizing aliasing.
LA xLimit V is specifically engineered for mastering, digital editing, multimedia, and any audio application demanding top-tier limiting with exceptionally low aliasing.
To satisfy today’s stringent broadcast, TV, and streaming requirements, LA xLimit V features True-Peak limiting (ISP) compliant with the ITU BS.1770-4 specification, alongside up to 64x oversampling.
At the core of LA xLimit V are two independent brickwall/look-ahead limiters that can operate either in serial or parallel mode.
Fhe brick-wall/look-ahead limiter operation is primarily controlled by the drive, tone, attack and release controls.
Adaptive Attack automatically adjusts ratio of clipper/limiter levels based on internal transient detection. It minimizes typical side effects of brute force clipping such as unwanted distortion or crackling.
Adaptive Release recalculates the release curve for each sample. This minimizes typical aliasing during the limiting process.
The Enhancer tilizing custom soft-clipping algorithms driven by adaptive compression, it intelligently boosts perceived volume and density without increasing peak levels. The Enhancer can be placed either before or after the limiter stage.
The Dither module support various bit depths and noise profiles.
