Maintaining Audio Quality
The Aphex Model 722 Dominator II is a stereo MultiBand peak
limiter designed to fit a wide range of applications. Through the
use of MultiBand techniques along with patented Aphex
technologies, the limiting action is practically inaudible such
that greater limiting depth is possible, resulting in higher
loudness while maintaining audio quality. At virtually any
limiting depth, the Dominator II is free of most artifacts
normally associated with limiters. As a peak overshoot protection
limiter, the Dominator II is undetectable in line while it
absolutely prevents peak levels from exceeding a user settable
output level. In addition, the desired limiting effects of greater
audio density and increased punch are readily available with the
Dominator II.
The Model 722 has Pre and De-emphasis circuitry included for
broadcast use, while the Model 720 Does not.
Applications
- Protection of amplifiers and speakers from overload
- Preventing sudden peak overload of a mixer or recorder
- Ensuring clean recording by stopping clipping of peaks and
overshoots.
- Maximizes bit usage for less distortion.
- Satellite Uplink -- Modulation control on high frequency
audio, gives reduced distortion, better signal-to- noise.
- Broadcasting -- AM and FM modulation control for increased
loudness
- Location Film Shoots -- anti-clip for dialog and sound effects
recording.
- Post Production -- Soundtrack peak control; managing difficult
dialog; controlling transient sound effects.
- Analog Mastering -- peak control for high allowable average
cutting levels; less limiter degradation to the program
- STL & Phone Line Driver -- maximize signal-to-noise
without overload distortion
