TBF I given up on lossy formats.

This looks like a good addition to Sonar. 
 
I like iZotope Ozone a lot as well, but not everyone has Ozone (and it's expensive).
 
It's the sign of a good idea if a similar feature is implemented by several companies. So I'm pleased to see Cakewalk add this and I'll be using it.

That's how i feel about it too. These new engineering series plugins are great. 
 
I see Bob Currie (who was in charge of the CA2A) posted in this forum the other day when I thought he had left Cakewalk. Hopefully this means we may see more cool VSTs in future :)

I agree, Awesome feature to have now included free in this update.
 

Wait...... Sonar is free now ?
 
Damn it, I only went and paid for mine. 
 
Typical.
 
 
 
Slinky editing btw 
 

 
I respect your opinion. But if your so unhappy.. Why stay here ?
Just simply move on and let others enjoy the features. Think about it, that first comment about "Welcome to 2015" is just plain ignorant.
 
Complaining all the time gets old.
The occasional gripe is normal for everyone, but all the time.. Gets old man.
 

This is a great add to Sonar. I'll be comparing to Ozone, which I use.

I'm so happy to hear you say that about MP3 "coloring" the audio!
 
This is probably a comment on the (questionable) quality of my mastering, but I perceive that my master mixes sound better when I convert them to MP3, fixed at 192k bps.  It seems to "warm them up".  I've silently been noticing that about my master mixes and your post seems to reinforce my perception.
 
Using the AL on the Master bus, I'll now be able to "preview" my mixes without exporting them.
 
I like that a lot!

I love Ozone 7 - it's the only plugin I always use when "mastering".   However, given my PC specs I just can't add it to a live project.   Adaptive Limiter seems like a great way to get me closer to that end goal without bouncing down to a stereo track > importing into a simple project > listening > then rinsing and repeating as needed.   Less time watching the progress bar, more time actually using SONAR.    I likes.  

is there something special i have to do for the histogram to show other than hit the histogram button

Check out the MP3 functionality in the Adaptive Limiter - you can preview what the MP3 will sound like at different bit rates, as well as audition what's taken out during the data omission process (which is pretty revealing). It's almost like having an extra application built in to the Adaptive Limiter. 

Good day all,
 
Looks like a "whole lotta bakin been going on" for this update, anxious to try out limiter, and ripple editing also, usually I wait till sometime after official release to update, but my curiosity may overwhelm me this time, LOL.
 
Is there anyway to access documentation on limiter without actually doing the pre-release update? 
 
Cheers
 

hum? this sounds cool... and really helpful to me! :)  thank you!

Awesome!  Yes - I own some heavy mastering stuff here - but I think this is a GREAT addition to the camp Great Job Cakewalk!!
