MAXIM
Peak Limiting and Sound Level Maximizer
Create professional-sounding master tracks for your Pro Tools sessions with
Maxim. More than just a world-class peak limiter, Maxim optimizes the overall
level of the audio input while preserving the integrity of the original sound. Its
proprietary sound level maximizing technique distinguishes it from analog
limiters and digital versions of them, which often add unwanted distortion or
coloration to the audio. The result is transparent, or perfect, peak limiting.
Maxim also offers built-in dithering, on-line help, and a full-color Histogram,
making it an indispensable plug-in for mixing and mastering in the Pro Tools
TDM-based, RTAS or AudioSuite environments.

◆ Rather than clipping peaks, Maxim uses an
advanced proprietary technique that takes
advantage of the Pro Tools non-linear envi-
ronment to intelligently process the signal
◆ It looks ahead to anticipate peaks in the
audio file and then reduces them —relative
to the track's lower level audio — without
changing the overall sound quality. The
result is perfect peak limiting that preserves
the sonic characteristics of the audio in a
way not possible with any other limiters.
◆ In addition, Maxim automatically adjusts
the over-all gain of the audio to meet the
ceiling as limiting is applied. In other words,
it combines advanced peak limiting (without
clipping) and normalization
◆ Flexible enough to be used as a dynamics
processor on any a channel or across an
entire mix
◆ 16-, 18- or 20-bit Dithering improves audio
performance and reduces quantization noise
when mixing or fading low-level audio signals.
◆ Color Histogram helps you determine where
the energy resides in a song, and provides
valuable visual feedback for precise thresh-
old adjustment. Maxim always provides a
full graph reading,whether the playback
period is 10 seconds or 10 minutes long.
◆ Display also includes plasma-type input and
output meters, a threshold slider, output
ceiling, and attenuation meter.
◆ Compatible with Mac OS,Windows 98,and
Windows NT-based Pro Tools systems.
