The key to the L3's power is its patent-pending Peak Limiting Mixer (PLMixer ) engine. The L3 differs from conventional wide band and multi-band limiters in several ways:
- Unlike wide band limiters, the L3 first uses linear phase crossover filters to divides the audio spectrum into five bands.
The PLMixer then uses psychoacoustic criteria to intelligently decide how much attenuation to apply to each band so that all available headroom is used. The result is that intermodulation is minimized and overall loudness is maximized, while brick-wall limiting is still maintained—all while retaining the simplicity of a single master threshold control.
- Unlike traditional multi-band limiters, the PLMixer doesn't require a wide band peak limiter to catch overshoots generated by individual band ... more
