The ML4000 is a high-resolution limiter designed for music, mastering, post, and live sound, in single and multi-band configurations.

Extended information

The ML4000 is 2 plug-ins:
* ML1 single-band limiter
* ML4 4-band Gate/Expander/Compressor fed into single-band limiter

Both in mono and stereo versions.

ML1 Mastering Limiter - The ML1 single-band configuration mastering limiter has a brick wall design coupled with multiple stages of limiting for superior peak detection. A continuous Knee control allows the ML1 to sound transparent or aggressive. The ML1 can operate in look ahead and zero latency modes.

ML4 Mastering Limiter with Gate, Expander and Compressor - The ML4 multi-band configuration has a 4-band Gate, Expander (upwards or downwards), and Compressor fed into the same limiter algorithm found in the ML1. Each band’s Gate, Expander, and Compressor can be configured separately, or linked together. Steep 24 dB/Oct crossover filters minimize signal leakage into adjacent bands.

Performance:
ML1 - Up to 18 mono (or 12 stereo) channels on a single HD Accel dsp at 48kHz. Up to 9 mono (or 6 stereo) channels on a single HD dsp at 48kHz.

ML4 - Up to 3 mono (or 2 stereo) channels on a single HD Accel dsp at 48kHz. Up to 1 mono (or 1 stereo) channels on a single HD dsp at 48kHz.
