DarkLim  

Transparent Mastering Limiter

A true-peak limiter designed for final loudness processing without audible artifacts. DarkLim uses parabolic gain scheduling and a fixed-latency lookahead architecture to achieve transparent limiting at competitive loudness levels. A smoothed slope detector mitigates low-frequency pumping, while the fast auto-release adapts to transient density in real time. Clean enough for mastering, aggressive enough for creative limiting.

Key Features: Parabolic gain scheduling • True-peak detection with fixed latency • Auto-release with adaptive speed • Low-frequency pumping mitigation • Input/output metering with gain reduction display • Ceiling control
