I'm not at home at the moment to try, but have you tried the free LFX-1310 from Luxonix ?
They specs say LFX-1310 has a Peak/RMS Compressor inside.

Ah, noted that karmafx and the old timeworks compressor
X has rms compression as well, karma even has
sidechaining.

GVst compressors are rms/peak compressors.

Those freebies actually look pretty nice though. Thanks.

Another great ear protection tool for developers testing plugins: RMS Limiter.
That avoids clippings that occur in alpha/beta to harm your audition.
Think about it while testing plug-ins. it just an RMS limiter away to avoid breaking things.

Also... most limiters can act on RMS if you set the threshold deep enough. It will sound like total crap though. Maybe good for a laugh or a vintage "My SoundBlaster died" lofi effect? :lol:

I learned how to make one two days ago. Albeit it rms limits and dbfs peak limits. I made it though so that you can set the dbfs limit to +6 for the limiter to prevent it ruining your peaks and dynamic. The dBFS limiter interestingly also uses rms to ensure that the ceiling has a natural decay and the keepalive is sustained when using aggressively. I made it from scratch. The limiter used for the RMS is an old code example made by Bootsy.

Old post, relevant question.
I don't make audio products anymore. I sell furniture & smart products.

And some of the products use less cpu.

RMS limiting is useful for testing plugins. Not for plain crowd usage.
