Setting Up A Limiter

Thanks Streaky, would love to see how you set up Newfangled Elevate, which has a few unorthodox parameters

“Pro mastering engineer”
turns off true peak 😂

I've been using this plugin for years and never realized that 1:1 button was even there... FML...

[Bert_Fromarketin]

Awesome... missed this one... should have been in my Professor Streaky playlist

I'm so used to the Waves L2 ( yes showing my age here! ) I don't even think of anything else, even though I've got this one. Will give it a shot though. I remember it had a good look ahead function that can be very useful.

I used to record all my tracks slightly lower than maximum. When I combined them, they would peak and crackle. I solved a lot of the crackle by offsetting the recordings by plus or minus 1-3 ticks from each other, but there were still annoying exceptions that would sneak by the offsets. When the waves combine just right, a tidal wave amplitude occures here and there. Any suggestions on stopping this without obvious limiting that sounds like someone turning the volume up and down (like garbage dolby)?

@streaky but HOW do you decide exactly what millisecond to use for attack/release? Do you use a BPM to millisecond converter or do you just set it by ‘ear’? Cheers

[Tha_Plot]

Been doing this for months now! When done right it's exactly what you need

[alexgnyusa]

How do you get that saturation in the vocals when you push the limiter hard (normally I hear it when the kick or 808 punches over a vocal). can that only be achieved with analog limiters or will digital limiters do the same thing?

[steppabanton]

Hi Streaky. Have you tried Smart Limit by Sonible?

[brainwasher]

How do you adhere to the specs without TP Limiting?

[jgmelody]

Big up Streaky you’re really doing a great service for the community ❤️

Set up true peak limiting at -0.1 and then turn off true peak limiting 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️

[linfordrichards]

Amazing!! Streaky, thanks for all your fabulous insights 🎙🎹🎧🎶🎶🎉

[peakingmantis]

I've tried the oversampling and turning off true peaks but my mixes always sound better and less distorted when I just leave it as default settings?

[reubenza]

the help manual warns against unlinking the release because it can affect the stereo image, do you just set it like that because you like the sound, or is there some other logic behind it?

[travonsinclair]

Streaky, what value do you choose for LookAhead?

[mohammadrapi]

Use L1 limiter plugin and don't do any of these ❤️

Limiter on 0 release is distortion heaven. Interesting concept you got there. Will have a look
