Audio Limiter

A lookahead peak limiter for the end of a chain: the gain comes down 2 ms BEFORE a peak arrives and recovers over Release, so a loud event is turned down whole instead of clipped; a soft knee catches the rest. Gain (dB) drives it, Ceiling (dBFS) is the most that leaves, Reduction says how far it is pulling down (dB). Terremoti Vulcana's master limiter.

ReleaseMilliseconds the gain takes to come back up after a peak (5…5000; Terremoti 220). Short: louder, can pump; long: smoother.float220
