The cleanest distortion box limiter is the BX_truepeak, which is still cleaner than anything from Waves or FabFilter if you’re not digging into the midrange like a maniac because to be clean, it lacks the crazy dependencies because it’s not making a mess it has to clean up to not sound like total shit with even 1-2 db off! And BX limiter true peak has the best intersample peak limiter because tdr is just a clipper where the oscillations are normalized. The cleanest digital limiters I’ve used is TDR Limiter 6 GE and avoid the true peak. And there’s still an audible transient there when played back or after further processing phenomenon when played back because the discontinuity you just caused is oscillating Your glorified shitbox modulator or your clean modulator might not do it so you get one of those 128x oversampled clean clippers. Oh and to take the real sample peaks off, you’ll have to run part of sidechain into the MHz. Some of them actually increase the transients and then try to normalize peaks! They’re basically random shit boxes that can even increase the transients with a ton of program dependencies and leveling and other crap built it. So to reduce that peak, you have to push the threshold further down. Oh and the likes of Waves L1, L2, and Oxford Limiter can’t take any transients off without digging into the tonal content because they can’t see the transients since their rectified sidechains are just based off the pcm samples. They will have normalization and levelers included and it’s all proprietary and all distorted! Then they try to hide the distortion caused by digging in deeply with a fast attack/program dependent release compressor by putting the crazy pumping on harmonic content and then the distortion on transients. Lookahead is just a delay and they will often modify the filter too. The filter coefficients literally don’t work. Modulation distorts.ĭigital limiters usually have a lookahead because their attack filters literally don’t work correctly. People need to stop slamming records and clipping the shit out of everything. It’s not physically and mathematically possible to guarantee to take the peaks off cleanly.
