Very simple, albeit high quality limiter. The only current limiting model, Clarity One, is surprisingly clean but can also be pushed with the drive and saturate knobs if desired. Lots of visual feedback, GUI skinning and scaling are also appreciated.

I like this plugin for the visual feedback it gives. The Saturation control seems to work well in addition to the look-ahead limiting. One thing that might be helpful is if the threshold slider moved in 0.1dB increments instead of 0.01.

I was notified of this free plug-in, Wave Breaker. I downloaded it the other evening and tried it out. Very nice limiting with this. Graphical feedback is helpful even if I go by what I hear. Nice useful limiter. Have it on my Mac Mini M2 and Studio One 6.1 Artist DAW, runs flawless. Give it a try.

upd-4: Everything is fine. I'm extremely happy to bump my score to 5. The bug was swiftly fixed. Awesome.

Extremely good first impression. Every One Synth Challenge guy should be jumping on this. I'll give it more time, but for now, you get my solid vote. Good luck.

P.S: One feature I would really wish for is channel linking. That would add a great deal of value for drums vs pads examples. So far, the two knobs approach to striking a balance between saturation and compression is fantastic. Once you know what to listen to (and there's a clear visual indication as well), you're off to understand the compression/limiting issue very well.

(From here, I list previous issues I had with the plugin, I no longer have the issues, it's fixed.

upd: ok. Once I press "disable" button in the latest stable legit FL Studio, it leads to a whole DAW crashing and closing immediately. Which makes this AWESOME plugin unusable for me. Please please fix this. I don't want to downgrade my developer challenge grade for this, because I was waiting for something that operates, looks and sounds like this for months and months. Please? If you need any extra info/videos, feel free to PM me. (Checked this on the latest FL Beta as well, same issue.). Deleting the plugin from the chain altogether doesn't cause the crash. Enabling one thread, disabling "smart disable" doesn't help, so these are not the features that cause incompatibility. Once again, it's all resolved once the plugin is bridged away from FL.
upd-2
: A workaround for the issue below is Make Bridged option in FL Wrapper. I use a VST3 version.
upd-3
: The Wave Observer didn't cause similar issues for me. Great, awesome GUI work.

I like it very much its clear and customizable GUI, it simply does what it promises and for me it does it very well. Straight to the point and with the before and after graphical feedback of the limited peaks. I lke it very much.

Can you guys develop a compressor -actually all 4: FET OPTO TUBE VCA- in the same manner. One side of the audio visually representing the peaks and other the body/tail. No different from how it is visually seen here in this limiter? That would really be dope.
