Re: Limiter has no effect

... The recording i've done ranges in the -24 to -3 dB range. When i try to apply the (hard) limiter to about -7db, nothing happens at all! No peaks are cut off, and it has no visual change at all..

I think spectrogram view , ( rather than waveform view), is what you're looking for ... Baseball-hit , waveform Versus spectrogram.png http://www.acs.psu.edu/drussell/bats/cr...
