Adaptive Limiting

Imagine a limiter that doesn’t just make your audio louder – it also makes smarter decisions about when to limit and when to hold back. The OCELOT Limiter uses advanced psychoacoustic analysis to ensure your mix stays clean and punchy, while maximizing loudness. With its intelligent approach, it helps you push levels higher without the usual artifacts of traditional limiters.

Soft Clipper

A switchable soft clipper catches isolated peaks at the start of the processing chain, reducing the limiter’s workload. This approach results in louder output with less pumping and exceptional transparency. When pushed further, it adds a touch of aggressiveness, delivering a punchy and polished sound without introducing obvious distortion.

True Peak

The OCELOT Limiter’s true peak feature ensures precise level control by adhering to the ITU-R BS.1770 standard. This mode anticipates inter-sample peaks that could cause distortion when your signal gets converted to the analog domain, keeping audio clean and accurately below the threshold level. True peak is invaluable for mastering and all tasks where pristine sound quality is critical.

Five Flavors

With five selectable algorithms, the plugin precisely adapts to any source material, offering tailored responses from the limiter and soft clipper. The 1:1 and delta listen features allow you to fine-tune for optimal signal integrity. Noise shaping, dithering, and quantization further enhance its versatility, making the OCELOT Limiter the ultimate tool for adding power to your tracks and masters.

I didn't have the "Odd Meters" so I bit on that.  Like I really "need" it? I can't chew gum and walk, how will I ever play in 9/94? Why am I asking you??

I never let silly things like "time" and the idea of "play on the beat bother" me.  Just thrash away my friend!

ST4 for a buck is an astonishing deal!   I guess we can safely say it's a no brainer for any fence-sitters out there.  Adding Sampletron 2, Syntronik 2, Miroslav Philharmonik 2 for another $28 still covers the no brainer territory well.

A lot of unusual instruments here like a DX7, Drumlator or hurdy gurdy.  If you like the slightly off beat, take a look.

Interestingly, they were wanting people to sign up by saying that only the first 10,000 would get it for free, yet today you can just grab it?

Either the uptake wasn't as expected or they've been a little deceitful in wanting to get people's emails on their system.

Well, there was this subscription thing . . . .

They also dropped a V2 for their Mandolin which owners of version 1 can download for free.

The demo was very impressive.   Indiginus does some really quality work and I find all their instruments to be excellent.  They have very competitive pricing to boot.

Demo'd those amps sims, must admit they are really nice to play through.  Need to fight the temptation now/

 

Resistance is futile!  Embrace the urge.  Become one with the deal.  You know you want it.  Buy! Buy! Buy!

VoS has released some really great freebies that can compete with the big boys paid versions.  I look forward to demoing this one.

Thanks for that link.

I guess this was the surprise mentioned after last weeks AD2 update. It looks like the black oyster kit revisited.

I'm thinking you're right.  Not quite the surprise I was hoping for, but at least it indicates that AD2 is still in some type of development.   Maybe one day we may actually see a version 3.

Can any of you say whether this works better than the Midi to Audio conversation with melodyne?

This is what I'd like to know.  I find Melodyne fairly hit and miss and would like something a bit more reliable.

When it comes to deals, the way I see it is one person's deal is the next person's "Meh".   Either way, thanks for posting and welcome to the forum!!  There are a lot of good people and good things here so drop in often.

I love AD, but had totally given up on it and assumed it had become abandonware.  This is great news!  Hopefully even more will be unveiled next week.

Would you take $88,888,87?

There are some deep discounts here.

I can't imagine they are bringing in many new users given the lay of the land.  It has to be legacy people that want the latest version.  I also don't expect the product takes much dev work at this point as it doesn't have many amps or effects under the hood.  

Given TONEX entry point has been in the $40 range a few times, hard to imagine getting much attention from those that know the whole market.  Overloud is about the only other player in this space doing something interesting but that is specifically tied to profiling specific iconic gear owned by legends.  If IKM had the same access to that gear and added it to the stable for a small price, Overloud also wouldn't be anything other than a footnote in a conversation due to price and lack of hardware to run it even if the capture tech has more focus on having the range of controls.  

I think you're being very prescient here.  I think you did a particularly good job in analyzing the market in coming year in your second post (above).

agreed. great price. makes we wonder how crowded is the guitar sim market and hard to sell in it.

That was the same thing I thought.  It makes me wonder what the future for developers like this is.

I'm with you.  What the waves sales it's usually cheaper just to buy a new one.

That video is pretty impressive.  After the Waves subscription fiasco I swore I was done with them, but after hearing this I'm going to at least give Equator a test drive.  Thanks for the link.
