Limiters Metering (Summary Tab)
Similarly to the AGC gain reduction meters, the 6
limiter band gain reduction meters show the
amount of limiter activity from the top down in dB
and the crossover frequencies in use are shown just
above the meters. Likewise, gating activity is
indicated by a bright yellow outline around each
gain-reduction meter.
Unlike the AGCs though, these meters will be
moving faster because the limiter section works on
peaks instead of the average levels like the AGCs.

Limiters (Basic Tab)
There are 4 variable controls in the Limiters menu area and all of them are “global”. That is, they affect all 6 limiter
bands simultaneously and equally.
The first global control is an overall Drive control
that allows you to adjust the amount of gain
reduction in the entire 6-Band Limiter section at
once. This is (conveniently) just like changing the
value of each control in the limiters crossover
(XO) by the same amount.
Next are Attack Time Offset, Release Time
Offset and Gate Threshold Offset controls. These
can adjust all 6 bands simultaneously relative to
the individual control settings in the Advanced tab.
Descriptions of the Attack, Release and Gate
functions are described in detail in the Advanced
tab section below.
