Analog vs Digital Limiting

#AudiotentTip 248. Analog vs Digital Limiting.

Analog limiters can be classed as being slightly disadvantageous vs digital, this is due to the time delay in the circuit. Digital limiters use a function called look ahead which enables them to analyse the signal before processing. This feature allows for complete brick wall limiting. Controlling your peaks at various stages of the mix can help create a loud yet transparent master.
