smart:limit is a limiter plug-in designed for the mixing and especially mastering stages, when you need to increase perceived loudness while maintaining natural dynamics. It suits both modern productions requiring high density (pop, electro, hip-hop) and content where transparency is a priority (acoustic, soundtrack, vocals, podcast).
Thanks to its publication-oriented approach, smart:limit helps you aim for a consistent result for distribution: it displays useful loudness and dynamics data in real time, then guides you to achieve targets adapted to streaming services or loudness standards. You save time while reducing the risk of aggressive settings or surprises at export.
The core of smart:limit relies on a quick analysis of the incoming signal: in a few seconds, the plug-in proposes limiting parameters designed to preserve the mix's breathing. You can choose to work 100% automatically, 100% manually, or combine both to speed up workflow while keeping precise control over the final sound.
To guide the character of the limiting, smart:limit provides genre-based profiles. This approach facilitates obtaining a consistent color and behavior according to the musical style. If you aim for a specific aesthetic, you can also import a reference track to align your limiting approach with a targeted "style" of rendering.
smart:limit integrates comprehensive loudness and dynamics monitoring with relevant information for publishing. The goal is to avoid juggling multiple measurement tools: you track the impact of your settings in real time and adjust confidently before uploading or delivering to a client.
The plug-in offers visual targeting oriented toward streaming, standards, genres, and references, and supports your adjustments with Quality Check indications to secure your settings. To further streamline decision-making, smart:limit includes Instant Impact Prediction to quickly anticipate the effect of parameters on the signal and maintain an efficient workflow.
Beyond simple level boosting, smart:limit provides 4 sound-shaping tools to refine and stylize the result. The plug-in also features distortion display and intelligent auto release, designed to optimize transparency and help avoid artifacts when limiting becomes more intense.
