Borrowing a certain heavy-breaking, distance-choking intergalactic villain\u2019s timeless style, the very-limited-edition Darthlimiter celebrates 1,000 Bettermaker Mastering Limiter units sold. Like all Bettermaker hardware, the Darthlimiter uses a boutique 100% analog signal path paired with full digital control, including automation and instant recall via a front-panel touchscreen or Bettermaker\u2019s DAW control plugin. TransAudio Group, U.S. distributor of the world\u2019s finest professional recording equipment, is ready to move its share of the only two hundred Darthlimiter units that Bettermaker will produce. How is the Darthlimiter different from the Mastering Limiter? It has a new capacitive touchscreen with improved contrast and viewing angle. It uses a Burr-Brown\u2122 OPA1656 op-amp for even lower noise and extended dynamic range. And of course, the Darthlimiter features an all-black front panel with a black frame and black knobs.<\/p>\n
\u201cSure, come to the dark side, it sounds awesome!\u201d laughed Brad Lunde, president of TransAudio Group. \u201cBettermaker gets a lot of press because they offer digital control (even automation!) of a pure analog signal path, but the sound quality of that analog signal path would be generating a lot of press all on its own even without the massive digital conveniences. The Darthlimiter (and Mastering Limiter) includes frequency-dependent saturation with separate odd- and even-harmonic components and fully-adjustable clip and limiting settings. In addition to digital recall and automation, the front panel offers an impressive array of metering, including all varieties of \u2018analog\u2019 meters (VU, PPM, RMS, Peak), LUFS, K-metering, FFT, Goniometer, correlation, and more. Super impressive!\u201d<\/p>\n
