pure:limit

smart:comp 3’s Input Riding adjusts the signal level before compression to improve how the compressor reacts. pure:level, on the other hand, stabilizes the signal itself and places it in the mix using a target level - without applying compression or changing the signal’s dynamics.

Classical level riders adjust gain dynamically around a target level, so changing the target also changes how the riding behaves and can influence the signal’s dynamics.

pure:level separates level stabilization from mix placement: It first stabilizes the signal around its natural average level and then applies a static gain offset to reach the desired target. This means you can reposition a track in the mix without altering its dynamic behavior.

In addition, pure:level offers a built-in group feature that allows multiple instances to share a target level, making it easy to position related tracks such as vocal stacks together while each track is still stabilized individually.
