Overview

Precision Maximizer Plug-In

UA Original Premium Performance Dynamic Impact Processor for Increasing Perceived Loudness

The Precision Maximizer is a dynamic impact processor that magically increases apparent loudness, without reduction in dynamic range, by a unique combination of UA’s analog/tube know-how and digital mastering expertise. There are other products that aim to “finalize” or “inflate” a mix, but UA’s Precision Maximizer uniquely increases perceived loudness while maintaining peak level control, with little effect to the signal level and without the fatiguing artifacts.

The Precision Maximizer can also generate significant and “musical” enhancements to the perceived impact, energy level and presence of a final mix. The Precision Maximizer can simply be used to quickly add extra “sizzle,” making it the secret weapon for cutting club or radio-ready mixes fast.

    As I am mostly making electronic music It needs a good punch to be present in tracks, that's why sound is always going through a Precision Maximizer to raise to the next level. Just twist the "shape" knob and you will hear the difference immediately. Effects from subtle enhancement to greatly boosti … Read more

    Just loving the Precision Maximizer. Just plug in it into the main bus and it makes the track sound fuller, yet clear and it do not squash the mix at all. You still feel as there is a lot of room left :) … Read more

    This one is great, but it would have been great to be able to adjust the parameters of the 3 band compression and have a kind of visualized overview as well like the precision limiter and the four band precision compressor. In that case it would earn 5 stars. Cheers from sweden! … Read more
