OD Limen

Tokyo Dawn Labs

Where to get itAvailable from Tokyo Dawn Labstokyodawn.net

OD Limen is a high-frequency acceleration limiter designed for mixing and mastering applications. It isolates and processes only the high-frequency content above a user-defined crossover frequency, responding directly to transient sharpness rather than absolute level, leaving low frequencies and the overall tonal balance untouched. This allows precise control over harsh cymbals, sibilance, and aggressive transients while preserving mix clarity and detail.

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

Key Features

01Linear-phase crossover with automatic slope adaptation (24 dB/oct at 4 kHz and above, down to 12 dB/oct at 500 Hz)
02Acceleration-responsive limiting independent of input level
03Recover control (0–150%+) to restore spectral balance and add high-frequency sheen
04Tilt parameter to shape the spectral balance of limiting behavior
05L/R linking (0–100%) or M/S processing with weight control (–100% to +100%)
06Focus Listen modes to solo low-frequency or high-frequency bands
07Delta Mode to hear only the difference between original and processed signals
08Surround and immersive support up to 9.1.6 with per-channel gain reduction meters

Things to Try

  • 01Set Recover to 150% and slowly increase limiting depth on material with good transients to produce high-frequency sheen with just a few dB of gain reduction
  • 02Use Focus Listen HF to solo the high-frequency band and hear exactly what the limiter is affecting across all processing stages
  • 03Toggle the Active button while Focus Listen is active to compare processed output against the unprocessed signal and hear the effect of the limiter in isolation
