Circuit splits the signal into three frequency bands, and passes each band through its own processing engine which offers 12 different models – from sine-based transformers and foldback distortion, to circuit-bent filters, lo-fi and ring modulation.

These models can be put in motion by an envelope follower, tempo-synchronized modulator or two-dimensional Lorenz chaos generator.

The Track Limiter offers three different limiting algorithms and a manual view. Available formats and platforms are Audio Unit (AU), RTAS, VST, VST3 for Apple OS X 32bit/64bit and RTAS, VST, VST3 for Windows PC 32bit/64bit.

This unit employs very advanced limiting algorithms. The Track Limiter can control your audio levels and prevent distortion. Gorgeous tools don't need to have complicated user interfaces.
