Description::
|
||
|
|
||
|
Limits the input amplitude to the given level. Limiter will not overshoot
|
||
|
like link::Classes/Compander:: will, but it needs to look ahead in the
|
||
|
audio. Thus there is a delay equal to twice the value of the
|
||
|
code::dur:: parameter.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Limiter, unlike Compander, is completely transparent for an in range signal.

|
classmethods::
|
||
|
|
||
|
method::ar
|
||
|
|
||
|
argument::in
|
||
|
The signal to be processed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
argument::level
|
||
|
The peak output amplitude level to which to normalize the input.
|
||
|
|
||
|
argument::dur
|
||
|
aka lookAheadTime.
|
||
|
The buffer delay time. Shorter times will produce smaller delays
|
||
|
and quicker transient response times, but may introduce amplitude
|
||
|
modulation artifacts.

Synth.play({
