It happens that experimental approaches have victims. These are amplifiers and especially loudspeakers. Two amplifiers and a couple of loudspeakers of Cirkulacija 2 are now dead. What was needed is an effective audio compressor\/ limiter. This is it. After recent changes seems to work well.<\/p>\n
The nature of limiter is that it instantly changes the amplification factor – the moment the input peak signal surpasses a certain voltage level – all the sound is than pushed down at the output. This produces a pumping effect on the lower level sounds in complex sound waveform – however, the overall level is instantly back to normal – after the peak is over. This pumping is not to be mixed up with the pumping of a compressor – which uses attack and release time relaxation principle. The progressive limiting that staggers the amplification factors in multiple stages overcomes somewhat the idea of simple sound limiting.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
