003: Limiter
The Limiter regulates the input signal level. It is similar to the
Compressor, except that the Limiter compresses only signals that
exceed the specified level to lower unnecessary peak signals. The
Limiter applies a peaking-type EQ to the trigger signal (which
controls the degree of the Limiter effect), allowing you to set any
band width to be covered. This effect is a stereo limiter. You can
link left and right channels, or use each channel individually.

a: Envelope Select
When L/R Mix is selected for this parameter, the left and right
channels are linked to control the Limiter using the mixed signal.
If L Only (or R Only) is selected, the left and right channels are
linked, and the Limiter is controlled via only the left (or right)
channel.
With L/R individually, the left and right channels control the Lim-
iter individually.
b: Ratio, c: Threshold [dB], e: Gain Adjust [dB]
This parameter sets the signal compression "Ratio". Compression
is applied only when the signal level exceeds the "Threshold"
value.
Adjust the output level using the "Gain Adjust" parameter, since
compression causes the entire level to be reduced.

Ratio=Inf : 1
d: Attack, d: Release
These parameters set the attack time and release time. A higher
attack time will cause the compression to be applied more slowly.

f: Side PEQ Insert, g: Side PEQ Cutoff [Hz], g: Q, g: Gain
[dB]
These parameters are used to set the EQ applied to the trigger
signal.
The Limiter determines whether the compression is applied or
not, based on the post-EQ trigger signal. Setting the equalizer
allows you to set the Limiter to respond to any frequency band.
f: Trigger Monitor
Setting this parameter On will cause the trigger signal to be out-
put, instead of the effect sound. Use this parameter to check the
trigger signal with EQ applied.
Usually, set this to Off.
