CEDAR Icons Adaptive Limiter

Available as a range of AAX, VST2, VST3 and AU plug-ins as well as offering a standalone version of Retouch, CEDAR Studio comprises eleven advanced processes that allow you to eliminate a wide range of common problems and significantly improve the sound quality of your audio. Each CEDAR Studio process has been derived from our multi-award-winning CEDAR Cambridge™ flagship, and provides unsurpassed results, quickly, and with the minimum of fuss and user intervention.

CEDAR Studio is authorised using an iLok.

Unlike a traditional limiter or a multi-band device, CEDAR Studio's Adaptive Limiter employs a unique and amazingly transparent new algorithm developed by CEDAR. With peak and oversampling modes, it calculates a continuingly varying EQ profile that constrains the amplitude of the output while retaining the integrity of the input. The attenuation profile is constrained in two ways: the way in which it is permitted to vary in time, and the amount by which it is permitted to vary from frequency to frequency across the spectrum. This makes it possible to craft a wide range of responses with just three parameters.

In response to feedback from our customers, we have now further enhanced the algorithm, making it possible to apply even more limiting while retaining the integrity of the original audio. Not just a limiter, it's now an extremely flexible maximiser too, capable of pushing your audio far further than before while remaining much more natural than audio processed using conventional limiters and maximisers.

With its advanced resampling and noise shaping capabilities, is ideal for mixing, final mastering and other creative duties.
