Limiter2 Video Manual

[@lawanedavis7818]

I was wondering how to work the limiter not even 10 min ago and look your video pops up. So amazing. Thanks Joe.

[@ianaeillo]

Joe's got a line straight to your brain. Be careful.

Studio One is the best DAW ever!🔥🔥🔥💯I started using it for recording sessions not long ago and it just keeps on surprising me everytime 💯 Shout out to Presonus for the great work and quality 🔥

[@tmbe_official]

Agree 👍 👍

[@juergensuessmaier4689]

Your new series of video manuals is just awesome! Very useful information. Thanks Joe!

[@shawnebrown]

Have never used a daw before until about a month ago, incrementally your instructional videos of helped me learn what I need to know at the right time. This video is exactly what I needed at the exact right time. Thank you.

[@Bro_shalamah]

This was awesome. Had to comment to get this up in the YT algorithm. 👍🏿

[@etnietnietni]

I was literrally searching for a guide on Limiter2 yesterday. Thank you Joe!

[@balarila99]

Tried it and it works! I always mixed, avoiding clipping but having wide dynamics and ended up with very soft songs. One question, though: Why shouldnt I just use a compressor in my Mastewr?

[@DeltaWhiskeyBravo13579]

One big difference that I'm aware of is that a brick wall limiter will not let audio go above your set limit. And in most every case I can think of, a limiter is actually a compressor with a high ratio with something on the lines of 20:1 or higher. However, you can try the compressor vs limiter of your choice and listen to the results. Do an A/B comparison and see what you like better.

[@nedim_guitar]

Great stuff, as usual! Simple and straight to the point.

[@bassyey]

WTF. I didn't even know it can be on vertical. These videos never fail.

[@allinonethegreat]

Lol

[@AVENUENIGHTS]

Thank you Joe

[@chrisartist5155]

I am now using Limiter2 on my vocals.

[@charlesdufrene6244]

Awesome tips as always Joe.

[@timmit65]

As always, great job, Joe!!

[@h-starmusicstudio]

Need more like this for Studio One Stock Plugin

[@K8saidso]

I really appreciate your videos. I record for podcasting and audiobook recording. Your explanations are always helpful.

[@twodogstar2565]

Hey Joe, awesome video thank you for sharing. I noticed you said you like to pull the gain up rather than the threshold down. Is there any actual difference in sound when you use these 2 methods?

[@camronferguson7564]

Wow..I just assumed..u set up limiter exactly way I set mine...n im new to all this by a few months..never mixed before

[@Ironbarkbob]

Nice one Joe

[@MusicJunkieVideos]

inner sample peaks and things? 😂😂 😂 Great video as always thx Joe

[@gabrielapodaca1102]

u the man joe gilder

[@arnoldxode]

Would you still put that limiter on Incase your going to Master your mix, I'm more concerned about the headroom left out

[@Buck_Allen_Songwriter]

Thank you, this is extremely helpful!

[@thankyoudriver4219]

Hello Joe. When I put the limiter on during mastering of something of mine the tone of the snare changed, (for the worse). It became too prominent, there was too much crack in the sound. Before it was more subtle. I tried backing the input level of the limiter off but this didn't seem to work. Any suggestions please? Thanks.

[@WE2019]

After mastering how to export? I am not seeing song in the header as file etc.

[@localpm]

Great video.

[@MrDannyLaRusso]

Hey Joe. How come when I splitter the frequencies (high from low on the master bus) and I put a limiter on both sides of the splitter it clips. Shouldn't the limiters brick wall both sides of the splitter to 0 db?

[@celestial_unicorn_x]

Extremely helpful, thank you

[@steevcoco]

Hey remote buddy! LOOK: in here you grab that meter and just drag to make it vertical: It eerily seems your videos' goal is to KEEP doing "BOTH"! ... So people get to pick it all up, AND because we just do that ourselves too! I DO hope YOU keep on doing both!! Cheers!

[@nedim_guitar]

Huh?

[@steevcoco]

@@nedim_guitar lol I suppose. In case you're still there, it was just to point out that there's more than one way to do things, and also that we change things up ... So rearranging windows can be useful, and it's good to see all of the options! Keep doing a great job ... 😊

[@1shannonleggette]

Thanks Joe G. Very helpful.

[@CHETSTR]

can't click and drag to make it vertical?? what do I have turned off??

[@azizalami835]

I never really understood where I should put the limiter. Should it be in insert or post?! Joe, apparently puts it in post. I always put it at the end of the chain as an insert, is that wrong? Can anyone enlighten me on the difference?

[@DSchwachhofer]

I think insert is happening before the fader and post after the fader. So if your fader stays at 0 DB all the time it doesn't make any difference. But if you're using the fader to level some of the louder and quieter parts of your mix then the limiter (and perhaps other dynamics processors, too) should go into the post section

[@azizalami835]

@@DSchwachhofer never thought of it, i'll try that see if it makes a difference. Do you know why then Joe turns it off ?

[@slipkorn420]

What's the difference between PkRMS and the K-##? I noticed the PkRMS starts at -60dB while K series start at -40dB

[@raymondspagnuolo8222]

Awesome! Thanks for a great summary!!!

[@ArtemiyBelov]

Nice song, but mix is not correct. Need to Fix low frequencies

[@terrygray7465]

It might be the way that he wants it. Mixing is subjective and one person's "incorrect" is another person's "correct".

[@garyaweiner]

Would be grateful for a macro that adds the level plugin in the right place and puts the limiter where it belongs.Thanks!

[@chrisblackwell5543]

You could also put in your mix template it will always be there with your desired settings

[@FreeGuitarSound]

parfect video thank you!!

[@slipkorn420]

How do I bring up the manual in Studio one 4.6 Artist? Pressing F1 brings up a zoomed version of the selected track

[@Manuel_Manzotti]

Just go in the command shortcuts, search for Help and change the shortcut from there.

[@Luke-ot6mk]

But on K20 the red is there! This is confused for me!

[@ShakirinSaadon]

Hi Joe ! Beginner question 🙏🏻 What is the difference in Main Output between insert and post section? Thank you !

[@Hipox13]

Hi, I'm not Joe, but consider myself eligible to answer: simply put, insert section is pre-fader and post section is post-fader.

[@azizalami835]

@@Hipox13 Like Mohamad, I don't quite understand whether to put the limiter as an insert or as a post? If I understand correctly, following your explanation, I have to put two limiters, one in insert so that it affects my mix and one in post for export. That's right?

[@MatthewSharp0]

@@azizalami835 i use the limiter in post on the main and it works great. theres so many different ways to use the limiter but ive had great results by using it in post on the main.

[@idw357]

To Matthew, so I should click and drag the Limiter to the Main slider within the post position, NOT the insert position. Correct?

[@Hipox13]

@@azizalami835 No, anything after the fader is not included in the export. Make a little test with gain utility and see yourself :)

joe, can't grab the limiter to change its shape???

[@JohnathanMonroe22583]

Would like to see mixing hiphop tutorials by the PreSonus Team. Seem very bias to me.

[@NateMaelzSounds]

please add "Resampling" feature like in Abelton

[@PrantoKoX]

Nice and useful for beginners, but pelase don't irk or alienate your more serious & experienced users: this is NOT a "video manual", it's just a simple explanatory video with some POSSIBLE application example. And btw not all the advice & ideas & explanations in this video are 100% correct or technically sound. Let's not lower the bar, guys, S1 is a great DAW.
