Boz Digital plug-ins mainly owe their existence to the endeavor of overcoming limitations of 3rd-party plug-ins that hit a wall (so to speak) when faced with complex audio tasks that require a subtle, multi-tiered approach, rather than single-handed brute force. While BDL plug-ins are one-a-kind, offering a unique approach to audio processing tasks, The Wall is a limiter, plain and simple—and therein lies its greatest strength. Its origin story is at once familiar and yet remarkably singular. Rather than waste another minute having countless hours of work undermined by the shortcomings of overly complex limiting plug-ins, Boz found it more expedient to design a limiter plug-in from the ground up.
The goal was to create a user-friendly device that would achieve the results we all seek, but quickly and easily. It’s kind of ironic that The Wall, which we’re confident will become your go-to limiter, arose from the limitations of other limiters. Or maybe it’s Alanis Morissette ironic . . . we’re not sure, since it’s more about complications and finding a means to overcome them without compromise in functionality or sonic integrity. To put it simply, The Wall is a brick-wall limiter designed to give you a fast and intuitive way to make mixes competitively loud without destroying their musicality and dynamics—and like all Boz Digital Labs plug-ins, that’s not all it does.
Highlights
- Huge variety of styles with a simple interface
- Dual limiting modes; Smooth and Aggressive
- Sanity Check normalizes your level so you can compare your original sound with the compressed sound without introducing a level change.
- Flavor fader lets you dial in the settings of the brick wall limiter to match your audio source.
- Up to 8x oversampling to prevent intersample peaks.
- MFiT button sets the output to prevent clipping when encoding to lossy formats
- Dithering
