Original UA designed, premium performance brickwall limiter.

The Precision Limiter plug-in for UAD-2 hardware and Apollo interfaces is a single-band, look-ahead brickwall limiter made primarily for use with program material. Easy to use, the Precision Limiter plug-in is a colorless, transparent mastering limiter.

No upsampling is used, nor does the Precision Limiter pass audio through any filters — audio remains untouched unless the compressor is working, in which case, only gain is affected.

Use the unique Contour Mode to tweak the attack, shape, and character of a track

Easily prevent clipping on masters, tracks, and buses

Harness colorless limiting for maximum transparency

Meter with professional accuracy using Bob Katz's "K-system" metering specs

Key Features

1.5ms look-ahead, brick-wall, zero overshoot
Totally colorless limiting characteristics
Standard Peak/RMS, K-12, K-14, and K-20 metering modes
User adjustable or intelligent auto release
Unique Contour Mode allows attack shaping
Requires a UAD DSP Accelerator Card or Apollo Interface available from authorized dealers worldwide

First 5-star

I hesitate to rate anything with five stars because you never know. But this precision limiter is one of the best tools I've ever used in the studio. I paid a lot of extra money for this one plug-in and it's worth every penny.

Love It!

I love the sound of the precision limiter! I think paired with the maximizer, it's just next level in what it offers! I still have a small hunch it does let some very small rogue transients through at times, which will spike my MAAT meter at -1, but I'm still putting it through the paces. I hope to find out sooner why that's the case! But the limiter itself is pristine! Money well spent!

Great for modern production, especially if you’re looking for transparency, a staple in my mastering chain, paired with the shadow Hills mastering compressor makes for a ultramodern finish.

Powerful

This tool doesn’t have many knobs or many function like other gear but it’s still the best because it’s clean transparent transient friendly .. a pure weapon in your master and bus ..

Excellent

For voiceover this can in my experience deliver really clean and transparent limiting, in a really simple and easy-to-use package. Whilst not seemingly as exciting and apparently esoteric as some of the more historic/ boutique plug-ins that perform a similar function, one doesn’t always need excitement and added colour. Highly recommended

Easy and Fast setting and metering

I found this limiting very effective for mastering.
Its musical and clean limiting allows to get good lufs level without artifacts and color change.
The meter scale is very precise and helpful too.

Powerful, yet Simple

Don't let the simplicity of this limiter fool you. It's quite powerful considering it's ease of use.
