Las Vegas-based recording equipment distributor TransAudio Group has announced the introduction of the Bettermaker Mastering Limiter 2.0 that incorporates updated technology to boost the performance of its analog signal path with digital control, plugin recall and automation in an upgrade under the director of Marek Walaszek, Bettermaker’s inventor and founder.
Mastering Limiter 2.0 sounds offers a new, optimized limiter engine designed to provide greater limiting control and path-to-signal uniformity: -20 dB. An improved limiter side chain with a high-pass filter: off or 20-200 Hz, and mid-boost filter: off or 8 dB at either 2 kHz or 7 kHz for more delicate volume control. The re-designed 2.0 clipping section is designed to handle transient material with a High or Low Soft Clip plus Soft Clip Trim.
2.0 allows users to update firmware and plugins through Bettermaker’s website. Also included is a black faceplate with high-colored display and well-defined high-resolution visuals to provide easy-to-read metering.
“It’s somewhat hard to believe Bettermaker improved one of the top stereo limiters in the marketplace,” added Brad Lunde, president, and founder of TransAudio Group. “From Grammy-award winners, to top international recording artists, home and free-standing recording studios, the original Mastering Limiter is that piece of go-to gear that adds that particular dynamic edge and significant touch towards the end of the recording process. The Bettermaker Mastering Limiter 2.0 has faster release time, a lowered noise floor and the same 100 percent analog signal path with the ease of digital plug-in control and recall. This one is a superstar product.”
The Bettermaker Mastering Limiter 2.0 is priced at $3,500 in USA and is now available for shipping.
