Xilentch XMLimiter V3 Final Mastering Peak Limiter We're picking up right where we left off! No signal smearing! No stereo narrowing! No spectral shifts or transient loss! Because at the heart of this plugin lies an ultra-transparent philosophy. It tends to deliver much higher loudness compared to its competitors— but it does so in a very different way, without sacrificing that sought-after analog feel. And best of all: it does this without making you feel the difference between the original and the processed signal. Here's what's new: Unfortunately, this will be the final update. Now performs internal x16 oversampling. A numeric readout has been added to the gain reduction meter, with improved response speed. The color palette has been changed for both the interface and the gain reduction meter. Minor UI tweaks. Major DSP improvements, now with a more detailed dual-stage processing structure. As always, the plugin is FREE. If you'd like to support, donations are welcome! Just reach out if you'd like to contribute. Read More
