v1.0.0-beta — What's new ▾
  • One knob of loudness — push the signal into a transparent brickwall ceiling
  • PUSH (hero): input drive into the limiter — more push = louder, more gain reduction (0 → +18 dB)
  • CEILING: output ceiling in dBFS, default −0.3 (true-peak headroom for codecs)
  • RELEASE: gain-recovery time, 20 ms (fast/pumping) → 800 ms (smooth, transparent)
  • SATURATE: a touch of tanh warmth before the wall — the loudness "glue", default low
  • Lookahead peak limiter (5 ms / 240 samples @48 kHz) — native reports latency to the host; bit-exact dry at PUSH 0 + CEILING 0 dBFS
