• smart:limit is all about worry-free limiting: Its intelligent processing preserves the detail of any track and provides a transparent uncompromised limiting quality. With smart:limit's extensive loudness and dynamics monitoring, you won’t have to use any additional metering plug-ins.
• Besides providing you with all the necessary loudness information in real-time for confident publishing, smart:limit guides you towards hitting the safe-zone requirements of streaming platforms or loudness standards—and gives you feedback via interactive Quality Check hints.

• Speed up your workflow with smart:limit. The plug-in analyzes your signal and finds limiting parameters that let your mix breathe—all in just a few seconds.
• By choosing a genre-based profile that fits your mix, you can prime the smart:limit for different limiting characteristics. Or upload a reference track, if you are aiming for a specific limiting style.
• You can use smart:limit with or without the automatic parameterization—or go for a combination of both.

Extend the Loudness Monitoring section to access an extensive information hub on loudness and dynamics:

• Here you will find all relevant loudness readouts, visual guidance regarding different publishing targets and information on the dynamics of your track.
• With the revolutionary instant impact prediction, you won’t have to restart the loudness measurements every time you change a parameter—the change will be reflected in real-time without having to repeatedly play back the entire input signal.

• Loudness (LUFS): Integrated, short-term, momentary
• Loudness Range (LU): Integrated, short-term, momentary
• Dynamics (dB): Based on peak-to-loudness ratio
• True Peak (dBTP): Using high-resolution oversampling
• Gain Reduction (dB)

When your sound is in need of a little bit of extra vibe, smart:limit has got you covered.

• Use the Style dial to freely choose between either a soft or hard limiting style.
• Play with Saturation to add some subtle warmth or to really inflate your signal.
• Adapt the Balance to give your track that perfect spectral polish prior to publishing
• Tweak the Bass Control for a rich and compact low end

Q: 1. What is the weight capacity when using the Universal Head Adapter?

A: When using the Peak Design Universal Head Adapter, the weight capacity of the Peak Design tripod should remain the same (around 20 lb).

Q: 2. is the body of this unit made of metal? I have the Gowing equivalent of the Peak, and the body is plastic and there are reports of failure with dropping of an expensive lens. I hesitate to use my unit.

A: The plate that slips into the device that clamps onto a belt or strap is made of metal. The flat belt gizmo is also metal so you have a secure metal to metal connection. The red protusion on the flat plate ejects the lens holding body when pushed in but also pulls out and rotates to lock the protusion from being accidently depressed and releasing the lens holder. The black wheel clamps down and secures the lens holder in place even further. The body itself to which the lenses attach is of plastic which WOULD be of concern if the slideing base that locks to the belt holder were of plastic but it's not. Metal to metal connection. I use it confidently even with both a 70-200 and 24-70 attached simultaneously. Only time it failed me is when I didn't completely rotate the 70-200 to its lock position. Fell 30 to concrete on the lens hood but did't do any evident or lasting damage.

Q: 7. I see in the last photo that it can rotate the lens, but my son has bouht it and it can not rotate. I want it can rotate, there are 2 models ?

A: Pull it out, then you can rotate it. I had the same problem for a while. So, if you have it on your belt, pull the lenses and their holder away from your belt and then you will be able to rotate the lenses and their holder. It is such a nice tight fit that it is easy to miss.
