I opened this thread just after finding out first hand how cool the new Adaptive Limiter is, it's got quite a few surprises in it, especially for such a simple, straight forward plugin. I like the nicely ordered presets, the "Match Input Loudness" feature for the bypass A/B switch, and the K and LUFS metering. And yes, the Dither and MP3 (and artifacts) emulator is quite useful too.
I was expecting responses similar to mine, but forgot that every forum has it's......shall we say "
detractors".
BTW, I own Ozone 7, and Noel is absolutely correct. It sounds great but it's an intense memory hog.
With the new Adaptive Limiter, I can have it active on my master bus and still track new instruments, with no latency while playing. If it was Ozone, I'd have to disable it first.
I love Ozone, it has been my "go-to" mastering suite. But I tell you, if I throw in a (SPlat included) EQ, reverb, and perhaps some compression, I'll get results just as good as Ozone (with half the ram usage). But I digress....
Three Cheers to the Bakers for this excellent update. The Limiter and Ripple Editing make me so happy that I purchased the Lifetime Subscription.
This update alone is
almost worth the price of admission.
