SSL X-Limit Plugin
Visual Range and Bus Maximizer
For a peak limiting plug-in to be valuable, it needs to control peaks and maximize loudness, all with minimal latency. Additionally, it needs to effectively contain unwanted peaks, yet provide a smooth, musical sound that enhances each mix to which it is applied.
Solid State Logic X-Limit does all this and more. In addition to sounding amazing, this plugin is exceptionally easy to use thanks to its all-in-one waveform viewer.
X-Limit offers standards-compliant True Peak limiting to protect against peaks between samples, along with intelligent oversampling to minimize aliasing, digital clipping, quantization distortion, and other unpleasant sonic artifacts. You also have four selectable limiting characteristics available, so you can choose the best one for your project.
Anyone looking for a highly visual band and bus maximizer will find everything they're looking for in SSL's X-Limit.
State-of-the-art Peak Limiting
The X-Limit is packed with cutting-edge technology. It controls peaks and maximizes sound intensity, all with negligible latency. X-Limit's standards-compliant True Peak limiting algorithm utilizes intelligent oversampling and ensures that peaks between samples are effectively and efficiently contained. And with four selectable limiting modes - Clear, Glue, Punch and Auto - it sounds incredible in any situation. Regardless of what type of mix we applied to it, it delivered a smooth, musical, and complimentary sound to the source material.
All-in-One Waveform Viewer
When a limiter plug-in sounds as good as Solid State Logic X-Limit, you'd expect it to be difficult to use. However, nothing could be further from the truth. Thanks to its all-in-one waveform viewer, the X-Limit is one of the easiest-to-use peak limiters on the planet. All you need to do is move the Threshold and Ceiling sliders to adjust the response to your input signal and you're ready to go. You also get intuitive Ducking and Steering meters to help you understand the limiter's effect on the stereo image. Thanks to X-Limit, increasing the mix bus has never been easier!
