    I feel like if you turn True Peak limiting off, then it makes sense to use a safer ceiling, like at least -0.5dB. From the Pro L 2 manual: "The best way to minimize inter-sample peaks and distortion, is to use oversampling. In addition, increasing the lookahead can also help quite a lot, but may affect loudness and transparency. In most cases, choosing 4x oversampling in combination with a minimum lookahead time of 0.1 ms, keeps inter-sample peaks within a range of 0.1 dB." I've tested your settings, and see the True Peak Metering show my audio actually going as much as 0.3 dB higher than my set ceiling. I'd recommend either safer Lookahead or a safer ceiling if you're going to turn True Peak Limiting off, because the true peak can range a lot more than 0.1dB with such low lookahead. Oversampling saves but only so much.

    From my very basic understanding, it can dull the track because it's making adjustments on its own based on the incoming audio, and it's adjustments might not be what you want. Some PLEASE correct me if I'm wrong.

    Hi Streaky, why is the limiter attack set to 10s. It feels a little too large to detect any peaks. What is the motive for this?

  • @LETTMusic

    @LETTMusic

    Ай бұрын

    Attack on Pro L 2 isn't "attack", it's the 1st stage of release, and release is the 2nd stage of release. The attack is still instantaneous. Audio will still be brickwalled at the ceiling. It's confusing, but it's in the Pro L 2 manual.

    why would you have lookahead but also a long attack instead of immediate one. that's not doing much you could've just had an almost 10ms attack and it'll be the same. Also, limiter settings won't be the same for every track and definitely not for every genre. Aside from Output -0.1 I'd say all should be so different.

  • @MusokeMSK

    @MusokeMSK

    Oversampling does practically the same thing as TruePeak Limiting. But you have more control over it, because you can decide by yourself how much Oversampling you want. So you don't have to use both. Streaky does it the right way👍

  • @ParanormalArson

    @ParanormalArson

    It runs the plug in at a higher sample rate. Ex: if you're running your project at 48kHz, the limiter will run at 768kHz. The higher sample rate will reduce the chance of inter-sample peaks, as opposed to true peak limiting which will directly target the inter-sample peaks (or the "true peak"). Think proactive approach ("let's prevent this from happening") vs. reactive approach ("this is happening, let's fix it").

    It pevents upper distorted harmonics from folding down into the audible range so essentially reduces distortion and you can push it harder but its very cpu intensive

    In Pro L 2 the “attack” function isnt standard attack like a normal compressor. The “attack” knob in Pro L2 effects how quickly the release function kicks in (if you hover over it with your mouse it will explain this)
