WAVE ARTS Wave Arts FinalPlug 7

Original price was: €99.00.Current price is: €49.00.

FinalPlug combines a lookahead peak limiter with ITU BS.1770 loudness metering, making it an ideal plugin for audio mastering. It can be used as an insert effect to provide limiting for gain staging or volume maximization. Additionally, FinalPlug can be placed at the end of your mastering chain to ensure your audio meets loudness and true peak delivery requirements, making it a crucial component for achieving professional audio standards. FinalPlug installs as a fully functional 30-day demo, allowing you to try out all the features before making a purchase.

The FinalPlug interface could hardly be simpler. When used as a loudness maximizer, select a desired output ceiling level, say -0.1 dB, and then adjust the threshold level. As you decrease the threshold you increase the volume.

To meet loudness and true peak delivery standards, select the “Analyze” preset and then select a delivery target specification. This sets up the integrated loudness and true peak target levels. Then play your session. The integrated loudness and true peak levels are displayed as the music plays, and will be colored orange if they exceed the target levels. At the end of playback, click MATCH. This sets the limiter parameters to meet the target specification. Playing the session again will yield the desired integrated loudness level without exceeding the true peak level. You can now export your compliant audio.
