K-20
In Normal mode, the meter range is –40dB to 20dB with a linear response of
0.5dB per segment. In Zoom mode, the range is –8dB to 20dB with two dif-
ferent linear responses: 0.2dB per segment from –8 to 15dB, and 0.1dB per
segment from 15dB to 20dB.
K-14
In Normal mode, the meter range is –46dB to 14dB with a linear response of
0.5dB per segment. In Zoom mode, the range is –10dB to 14dB, with linear
response of 0.2dB per segment.
K-12
In Normal mode, the meter range is –48dB to 12dB with a linear response of
0.5dB per segment. In Zoom mode, the range is –12dB to 12dB, with linear
response of 0.2dB per segment.
Hold The meter Hold Time switch determines how much time will pass before the
peak values for the main meter and the gain reduction meter are reset. It af-
fects both the peak LED’s and the peak text display.
Values of 3 seconds, 10 seconds, or Infinite (indicated by the lazy-8 symbol)
can be selected.
Clear The meter Peak Clear switch clears the meter peak value display. It affects
both the peak LED’s and the peak text display.
Precision Limiter Latency
The Precision Limiter has a 1.5ms look-ahead window to ensure clipping does
not occur. This look-ahead function results in a slightly larger latency than
other UAD plug-ins. You may use DelayComp or TrackAdv to compensate.
See “Compensating Upsampled Plug-Ins” on page 95 for more information.
Note: Compensating for Precision Limiter is not required if the host applica-
tion supports full plug-in delay compensation throughout the signal path, or
when it is used only on the outputs. See “Host PDC Implementation” on
page 88.
