Grab the OCELOT Limiter Black Friday deal and you get Fuse Audio Labs' true peak limiter plugin for $39, 43% off, until Dec 6, 2026.
The maker describes it as an adaptive limiter. It runs a psychoacoustic analysis to decide when to limit and when to hold back, aiming to keep a mix clean and punchy while pushing loudness up.
The maker says this avoids the artifacts of a traditional limiter as levels climb.
Two stages work together. A switchable soft clipper sits at the start of the chain and catches isolated peaks, which takes work off the limiter.
The maker says that means a louder output with less pumping. Pushed harder, the clipper adds a touch of aggression without obvious distortion.
The limiter side offers five selectable algorithms. Each one gives a different response from the limiter and the soft clipper, so you can match it to the source material.
True peak control follows the ITU-R BS.1770 standard. It anticipates inter-sample peaks, the ones that can distort once a signal is converted to the analog domain, and keeps the output below your threshold.
The maker points to mastering as the main use, along with any job where clean sound is critical.
The 1:1 and delta listen features let you check what the limiter is removing and compare against the unprocessed signal. Noise shaping, dithering and quantization cover the final word-length stage of a master.
OCELOT Limiter belongs to Fuse Audio Labs' Ocelot Series. The maker describes the series as low CPU, with zero or low latency, built on its own DSP tech.
On Mac it runs 64-bit only, on an Intel or Apple Silicon CPU, with macOS 10.12 or newer and 2GB RAM. Hosts must support VST2, VST3, AAX or AudioUnits.
On Windows it runs in 32-bit and 64-bit, on Windows 7 or newer, with an Intel compatible CPU (2 GHz or faster recommended) and 2GB RAM. Hosts must support VST2, VST3 or AAX.
Both platforms want a display resolution of 1280x1024 pixels or more.
Yes. The OCELOT Limiter Black Friday deal takes 43% off Fuse Audio Labs' limiter plugin, bringing it to $39. The deal ends Dec 6, 2026.
On Mac it supports VST2, VST3, AAX and AudioUnits, in 64-bit. On Windows it supports VST2, VST3 and AAX, in 32-bit and 64-bit. Your host needs to load one of those formats.
It is a switchable stage at the start of the processing chain that catches isolated peaks before they reach the limiter. The maker says this reduces the limiter's workload, giving a louder output with less pumping.
Yes. Its true peak mode follows the ITU-R BS.1770 standard and anticipates inter-sample peaks that can distort during analog conversion. It keeps the signal below the threshold, which the maker calls valuable for mastering.
