Precision Limiter

Original UA designed, premium performance brickwall limiter.
The Precision Limiter plug-in for UAD-2 hardware and Apollo interfaces is a single-band, look-ahead brickwall limiter made primarily for use with program material. Easy to use, the Precision Limiter plug-in is a colorless, transparent mastering limiter.
No upsampling is used, nor does the Precision Limiter pass audio through any filters — audio remains untouched unless the compressor is working, in which case, only gain is affected.Use the unique Contour Mode to tweak the attack, shape, and character of a track
Easily prevent clipping on masters, tracks, and buses
Harness colorless limiting for maximum transparency
Meter with professional accuracy using Bob Katz's "K-system" metering specs

Pretty Clean
I find the UAD Precision Limiter to be cleaner than my Ozone 5 limiter. I wish it could go as loud as whatever is being used on most commercial recordings, but if I try to go that loud, it...

Pretty Clean
I find the UAD Precision Limiter to be cleaner than my Ozone 5 limiter. I wish it could go as loud as whatever is being used on most commercial recordings, but if I try to go that loud, it gets a little mushy.
As long as I put a multiband and my Waves L5 in front of it, I get real close and it sounds great.W. Schlender

My go to limiter
I've tried a lot of limiters, but this is still the king in my opinion :)
Always on the end of my master chain.G. Bonnier
Most responsive limiter i've used yet
I pût it on each of the 8 stereo busses comming out of the computer at mix down. Awesome!

Very Nice!
Although there are many other alternatives like Massey Limiter,
UAD Precision Limiter gives very transparent limiting if you don`t push too hard.S. Arts
Transparent & smoothest in town
Im using my UA precision limiter for a while now. Handy for K-system monitoring. I love the "non-colour sound" and it`s big horizontal metering. Smooth as a jellyfish, big waves, small waves.. This one takes UAverywhere!
V. Sibley
Incredible thing!
All I can say that this is the most accurate,transparent limiter I ever used!Natural attack,pure sound and legendary UA sound!

Best quality limiter
I've switched from using the Waves L2 at the end of vox chains to using the Precision Limiter. The quality shift is incredible. Very transparent!
P. Moshay
Love what it does not do
I wasn't sure about this plug till i put it up against some of the others in its field. The one thing i found is that it does not re-color your mix or crunch it up..... I love what it dosent do... mess things up. Great for pumping it up and being transparent.

Clean and Transparent

Precision Limiter Plug-in
The Precision Limiter is the best limiter I've used. Transparent sound with a lot of head room for your final master. Definitely worth the money. Thanks

Precision limiter plug-in
Now indeed, taking about needing a police to stand guard over the mix to assure everybody stays in its plays, no sound getting upset and maxing out the reds, indeed it keeps the mix level perfectly in its plays so that the mix remain pleasant to the Ear, it is indeed a police brick wall that keeps the other sounds under control. It also still gives enough room to push the mix close to its level of limit and still allow the mix to maintain its originality, it adds to the mix not take away. Out standing plug in

Colorless Limiter
I've used the native Logic limiter for years, but always felt it did something to the low-end and stereo image. Now that I'm able to compare it with the UAD limiter I know I was right. The Precision Limiter adds no color to your mix. That's all you need to know.
P. Lopes
Good but not superior than Sonnox
Causes distortion and fakes the color. I want my money back.
Buy a Sonnox limiter, you will not regret and more... you can use with any hardware and travel around the world with your PAID plugins, Sonnox psychologically hassles .B. Offermann
Great Mastering Tool
Already on the UA roster for a while, but just purchased this item to replace a hardware limiter in use. Besides precise brick walling, the metering of the limiter PI is unbeatbale useful and accurate (different modes help bringing your mix to the dynamic scope it needs to be).
