Input Limiter - Zoom F4 Operation Manual

Input limiter

The limiter can prevent distortion by controlling input signals
that have excessively high levels.

signal
When the limiter is ON, if the input signal level exceeds the
set threshold value, the signal level will be suppressed to pre-
vent the sound from distorting.
The attack time is how long after the signal exceeds the
threshold until the limiter starts operating. The release time
is how long after the signal goes below the threshold until
the limiter stops operating. Change these two parameters to
adjust the sound quality.
HINT
• The F uses a newly-designed limiter. This limiter has 10dB of
headroom, preventing distortion and allowing it to keep signals
below the set threshold even more than ordinary limiters.
• The ratio of the F limiter is 20:1.
