Limiter 6 GE

Tokyo Dawn Labs

Where to get itAvailable from Tokyo Dawn Labstokyodawn.net

Limiter 6 GE is a modular dynamics toolkit comprising six specialized processing modules—Compressor, Peak Limiter, High Frequency Limiter, Clipper, Output Protection, and a True Peak/EBU R128 Loudness Meter—arranged in variable order to handle everything from transparent loudness control to aggressive peak clipping. It combines macro and micro dynamic event control in a single serial processor, delivering both transparent compression and brutal brick-wall limiting capabilities while preserving musical fidelity and punch.

Written from the manual and checked against it. How we check

Key Features

01Six reorderable modules: Compressor, Peak Limiter, High Frequency Limiter, Clipper, Output Protection, and Meter
02Five Compressor modes: Alpha, Sigma, Leveler, Nova, and Broadcast
03Peak Limiter with Mk I/Mk II algorithm selection, multiband and brickwall controls
04High Frequency Limiter with Absolute and Relative mode options and dynamic high shelf filtering
05EBU R128 compliant loudness metering with Momentary, Short Term, Integrated, Zwicker Instant, and Zwicker L5 measurements
06True Peak and PCM ceiling protection with selectable lookahead window sizes
07Stereo, Stereo + Width, and fully unlinked stereo operation modes across all modules

Things to Try

  • 01Place the Compressor before the Clipper with a threshold at least 3-6 dB lower than the clipping threshold to handle tonal content smoothly while letting fast events reach the Clipper
  • 02Use the Peak Limiter's Mk II model for automatic release-time detection and release-time scaling instead of manual specification
  • 03Enable the Delta function to preview accumulated dynamic gain reduction and identify distortion artifacts across all modules
  • 04Engage Auto Pad and Equal Loudness Bypass for gain-compensated comparison without loudness perception tricks
