HUM Audio LAAL Mastering Limiter

The LAAL mastering limiter by HUM Audio is exceptional in many ways. An innovative idea of detection and limiting process allowed HUM Audio to achieve a new standard in analog mastering. One of the strongest advantages of the design is the 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 great RMS levels to be reached when required, but with minimal side effects and without compromising sound quality. Tracks will also preserve low-end energy and punch in a wide gain attenuation range.
