FinalPlug combines a lookahead peak limiter with ITU BS.1770 loudness metering. FinalPlug can be used as an insert effect providing limiting for gain staging or volume maximization or can be placed at the end of your mastering chain to guarantee your audio meets loudness and true peak delivery requirements. 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.
