HUM Audio LAAL

LAAL mastering limiter is absolutely exceptional in many ways. An innovative idea of detection and limiting process allowed us to achieve a new standard in analog mastering.

One of the strongest advantage of the design is fully analog (0.2 ms) delay line to obtain “Look Ahead” ability. Thanks to it the detection circuit can react to even the fastest peaks.

LAAL is extremely effective in this task, allowing you to reach great RMS levels when required, but with minimal side effects and without compromising sound quality.

Your track will also preserve low-end energy and punch in wide gain attenuation range.

LAAL does not use any soft clipping or similar process to artificially increase RMS levels. All magic happens in our unique and sophisticated detection and gain stage circuits.
LAAL takes maximum care about the quality of vour master.
When you look at the waveform after LAAL processing - you will find your master still „lives" and has an „air" above!

Another extraordinary and unique feature of this limiter is the DYNAMIC TRANSIENT function.
This function is responsible for regenerating transients proportionally to the limiting level.
It plays a major role in preserving space and details in your sound as you intend.

LAAL is very precisely calibrated with better than 0. 1dB accuracy in L/R channels, and it keeps the output level exactly.

The detection circuit is thermall compensated which ensures stability and repeatability of results in all studio conditions.

You can set input/output levels with a resolution of 0.2dB as well as six different release times, from 2ms to 100ms.

All these settings are on rotary switches, as you expect from mastering equipment. Left and Right channels detection circuits are stereo linkable. You can also use LAAL as two independent mono limiters.
