Invisible Limiter G3

Table of Contents

Overview

Invisible Limiter G3 is the third generation of Invisible Limiter series coming with significant updates around fundamental limiting algorithm and oversampling engine. Supporting modern mastering techinque, Invisible Limiter G3’s limiter features have been refined and reorganized from the previous generation.

Soft Limiter section

The goal of multistage peak limiting, frequently used in modern mastering process, is flexible peak envelope control in intermediate limiting stages. Soft Limiter section is a sophisticated toolset built for control of peak envelope. Unlike a conventional compressor and limiter, the Soft Limiter has large capability and flexibleness of peak envelope shaping by analyzing direct waveform instead of signal energy.

Since Soft Limiter does not enforce brickwall limiting, users can place Invisible Limiter G3 at intermediate position of their mastering chain for peak envelope control.

Brickwall Limiter section

The brickwall limiting algoritm has been refined from Invisible Limiter G2. It reduces many undesired side-effects such as narrow stereo image, signal smearing, spatial orientation change and groove alternation.

Invisible Limiter G3 enhanced its reduction curve shape adjustment feature from G2. It supports curve bending on time axis.

Features

• Conceptual separation of intermediate peak envelope control and brickwall limiting.
• Mid/Side processing
• Parallel compression
• Flexible control of reduction curve shape
• True peak limiting
• Reduction, peak and level meters
• Oversampling up to approx. 1.5MHz
• Unity Gain Monitor
