Pristine Peaks IE is a streamlined version of our stereo Pristine Peaks limiter that has been enhanced and optimized for multi-channel surround and "immersive audio" applications. Pristine Peaks IE, like Pristine Peaks, is an ultra-low distortion peak limiter for use in both mixing and mastering applications where the transparent peak control is required.

Pristine Peaks IE can support up to 12 channels of audio for use on mono all the way up to 7.1.4 channel-based audio tracks and buses. Each channel can be level-trimmed +/-5dB pre-limiter while their peaks can be trimmed as well by as much as 10dB below the master Ceiling setting.

Channel Isolate and Bypass controls are also provided to allow channel monitoring and bus separations.

Pristine Peaks IE uses a novel approach to dynamics control that produces a very "clean" sound that does not break up or distort even at high gain reduction amounts. Instead of saturating or clipping waveform peaks, Pristine Peaks IE determines what needs to be done to control the peaks and applies that gain change to the entire waveform. This results in extremely low THD for a very "clean" sound.

PristinePeaks IE provides the following features
•Up to 12 channels of independent gain reduction
•Less than 0.005% THD at any gain reduction amount (20Hz-20kHz)*
•No aliasing*
•-10dB to +20dB of pre-limiter global Drive gain
•+/-5dB channel pre-limiter drive Trims
•0 dB to -20dB global Ceiling range
•0dB to -10dB channel Ceiling Trims
•+/-15dB level Output control
•Choice of two different release slope shapes
•Peak hold meters that capture the max gain reduction•Independent Channel Isolation and Bypass buttons

*Steady-state measurements
Pristine Peaks IE is the ideal limiter of choice for video and multi-channel music production applications where clean, high quality limiting is required without saturation or clipping of the source material. NOTE: Pristine Peaks IE requires a considerable amount of latency to "do its thing" and is, therefore, not suitable for live/tracking applications
