![]() Deactivating this option may result in “overs” and/or peaks that exceed the specified Margin. In essence you will be implementing Hard Limiting. This also results in dynamic range reduction.Īctivating the “Brickwall Limiter” feature in the supplemental Options module will ensure accurate Margin compliance. As you decrease the Threshold, the signal is driven up to and against the Margin resulting in an increase in average loudness. The Margin is what defines the Peak Ceiling. When the input signal surpasses it, limiting is activated. I’m referring to a substantial increase in perceived loudness. Without a clear understanding of the supplied settings for the Limiter, you run the risk of generating excessive loudness when processing audio. This module may be activated or bypassed. There is global Peak Limiter module located to the right of the Compressor settings. Each Band includes a discrete Compressor with Threshold, Gain Compensation, Ratio, Attack, and Release settings. I think Dynamics Processor would be a more suitable name.īasically the multi-band Compressor includes 3 adjustable crossovers, resulting in 4 independent Frequency Bands. What’s interesting is it’s referred to as a “Multiband Compressor.” This is slightly misleading, considering the processor includes a Peak Limiter stage along with it’s advertised Multiband Compressor. However, it is far from a novice targeted tool. Personally I think it’s great that Adobe decided to bundle this processor in Audition. The tool itself is “Powered by iZotope.” They are a well respected audio plugin and application development firm. This is an aggressive preset that applies excessive compression and heavy limiting resulting in processed audio that is often fatiguing to the listener. Also, I’d like to discuss the infamous “Broadcast” preset that I feel is being recommended without proper guidance. I thought I’d clear up a few misconceptions regarding the Multiband Compressor bundled in Adobe Audition.
