I definitely appreciate the value of dynamic range. I probably should have
expressed this more as a search for a good limiter so that I can run my
signal reasonably hot without worrying about digital clipping if I get a
bit
louder in spots.
The RNC gets lots of good reviews but seems mostly to be a compressor. Any
limiter specific recommendations? I take it that the ART Tube MP is a
reasonable option?
Thanks.
