The ML4000 is a new high-resolution limiter in single and multi-band configurations.
The ML1 single-band configuration is a mastering limiter with a brick wall design, coupled with multiple stages of limiting for superior peak detection. A continuous Knee control allows the ML1 to operate transparently or aggressively. The ML1 can operate in look ahead and zero latency modes.
The ML4 multi-band configuration is a 4-band Gate, Expander and Compressor fed into the same limiter algorithm as 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.
The ML4000 will ship in July of 2006. Pro Tools 7 or higher is required. The ML4000 is also available in the Emerald Pack HD and Emerald Pack Native plug-in bundles.
