Waves released its L4 Ultramaximizer adaptive limiter plugin for music production professionals. The software delivers four limiting algorithms named Modern, Aggressive, Safe, and Smooth, and it features a bonus L2 mode for different genre aesthetics. The plugin offers adaptive clipping controls, release settings, upward compression for enhanced loudness, ultra-low latency, LUFS metering for streaming preparation, and dual interface options called Graph and Classic modes.
The company designed the limiter to address contemporary production demands for stronger low-end frequencies, increased dynamics, and robust transients that differ from earlier recording standards. Producers can purchase the plugin for macOS and Windows systems in VST3, AU, and AAX formats at an introductory rate of $49.99 through the company website, and the regular price stands at $99. The Waves Ultimate Subscription provides access to the L4 Ultramaximizer and 240 additional plugins for $24.99 monthly.
