Free VST Plugin – Leveling Amplifier – limiter
Leveling Amplifier v1.2 by Martin Best – Free VST Plugin
‘Leveling Amplifier was inspired by the famous hardware
limiters of the past, it has a very fast response to
peaks with a slow release for minimum distortion even
when driven hard.
The ‘Gain’ controls the input level from 0dB to +10dB,
the output will never exceed -0.2dB. If the plugin is
inserted on a track, it’s best to leave the gain at 0dB
then use the ‘Reduction’ control to lower the threshold
to the peaks on the track. The level meter can show input
level or gain reduction by using the push button, also
there is an ‘ST link’ button that should be used on
stereo tracks to stop the center image shifting about.’
Free VST W1 Limiter Plugin
George Yohng’s W1 Limiter VST
W1 Limiter is a clone of Waves L1, with identical output.
Release curve simplified
Release time multiplied 3 times (see notes below)
Softening circuit filter changed
Waves L1 famous limiter (and thus W1 – for compatibility reasons) uses three times longer actual release time than standard RT60 metric. This means that if you set 50ms release in the limiter, it will actually yield with 150ms standard RT60 release time.
Endorphin – free dual band compressor limiter vst
Endorphin – free vst limiting and dualband compression plugin.
Analogue style brickwall limiter
An overview on the features:
Two independent frequency bands (low and high frequency processing)
Switchable stereo or M/S mode operation
Two basic compressor designs:
- modern vca mode with soft-knee characteristics and manual time constants. This mode provides an instant response behaviour and deep compression, using a feed-forward circuit
- Vintage-style opto (photo resistor) mode, modelled after ancient opto-electrical compressors. The time constants stay manually set, but they are also affected by the signal’s energy. This mode has the typical opto-style ‘overshoot’ on quick transients, this is one of the most gentle compressors you may find. Classical feed-back detector circuit
Adjustable high-level output stage with analog-style saturation
Global ‘de-comp/sat’ section. It’s you who decides how the unit reacts to large amounts of gain reduction as well as when and how to saturate.
Maximum output: -0.1dBFS. This is very helpful when using the plugin as the last stage before burning the CD.
TLS Maximiser – Free Mastering/Limiting VST Plugin
TLS Pocket Limter – Free VST Brickwall Effect
Featuring transparent brickwall Limiting with 0 db stop and variable knee from 0% to 100% to keep limiting distortion at a minimum.
“IQ” mode allows users to get a more “intelligent” release from the knee with program emphasis.
Low latency for live performance use (40 samples at 44.1khz = ca 1ms latency).
Stereo link to preserve stereo field.
Supported samplerates: 44.1khz – 192khz.
