Dubspot Instructor Daniel Wyatt offers a glimpse into Level 3 of our Mixing & Mastering program; explains and demonstrats Basic Limiting using iZotope's Ozone 4. Students will learn essential tips and techniques for polishing their tracks, and giving them a finished, professional sound.
As the loudness war marches on, the modern mastering engineer increasingly turns to his/her limiter to create masters that keep up with the ever-increasing commercially-expected level. Essentially the limiter is a compressor that works with a fast attack, fast release, and a high ratio. As the threshold is decreased, the limiter quickly pulls down the peak transients (mostly the kick drum) and, then, with the the newly-created headroom, turns up the newly-compressed track with the make-up gain. This is where the primary loudness comes from!
