Press Play releases Wave Breaker 2.0

Press Play has released Wave Breaker v2.0, a major update to the limiter plug-in for macOS and Windows. Version 2.0 introduces two new limiter models: PeakMaster Pro is designed for mastering and and other high-quality limiting tasks, offering low distortion even at high gain reduction levels. It features adaptive re-calibration based on input signal analysis and a sensitivity control for fine-tuning its response. Clipper X is a soft clipping model with two tweakable controls, 'soft knee' and 'envelope', which can be used to shape the response of the processor, allowing it to act more like a fast limiter if desired. All models include true-peak detection and operate with 4x oversampling at common sample rates (44.1–48 kHz) to minimize aliasing artifacts to a minimum. Additional improvements include a new safety limiter stage, mono channel support, enhanced oscilloscope controls and a number of UI refinements. Availability and Pricing The original Clarity One model remains fully functional in the free version of Wave Breaker. To unlock PeakMaster Pro and Clipper X, a paid license is required. The regular license price is 79 USD / 69 EUR. Wave Breaker is also available in a bundle with Wave Observer Pro for 88 USD / 79 EUR, a savings of about 20% compared to buying both separately. To celebrate the release, there is an additional limited-time introductory discount of 20% on all plug-ins and bundles. Read More
