Stereo Pre-built DirectX Example: Audio dynamic range limiter
HINT: YOU CAN CHOOSE ANY WAVEWARP DRAWINGBOARD AS A DIRECTX STEREO PLUGIN -- NOT JUST THE
ONES CONTAINED IN THIS "DirectX/Stereo" CATEGORY. WAVEWARP WILL AUTOMATICALLY CONVERT ANY
DRAWINGBOARD INTO THE REQUIRED FORMAT. THE PRE-CONVERTED EXAMPLES IN THIS DIRECTORY
ARE SIMPLY TO DEMONSTRATE THE EXPLICIT FORMAT OF STEREO DIRECTX DRAWINGBOARDS. SO, AFTER
YOU'VE TRIED THESE, JUST BROWSE TO ANY OTHER EXAMPLE DRAWINGBOARD IN THE ENTIRE DISTRIBUTION --
OR BETTER STILL, GO INTO WAVEWARP AND BUILD YOUR OWN!
The limiter ensures that the audio amplitude will not exceed the user-defined threshold. It works by measuring the peak
and applying a logarithmic automatic gain control to the signal, based on the peak measurement. We recommend that
you always place a limiter before the ouput device when experimenting with new effects.
To test the limiter, experiment by intentionally over-driving the signal being sent to WaveWarp from the sequencer. The signal
returning to the sequencer from WaveWarp will not be overdriven !
