Use the ultra-transparent Precision Limiter plug-in for dynamic, polished masters
Included Plug-Ins
Precision Multiband
The Precision Multiband is a specialized mastering tool that provides five spectral bands of dynamic range control. Ideal for anything from complex dynamics control to simple de-essing, the Precision Multiband’s Compression, Expansion, or Gate can be chosen separately for each of the five bands, while its easy-to-use interface make it the ideal tool for the novice, as well as the seasoned mastering engineer.
Precision EQ
The Precision EQ plug-in is a stereo or dual mono four-band equalizer and high-pass filter made primarily for use with program material. Modeled on the behavior of real-world analog mastering filters, the Precision EQ uses the classic parametric controls arrangement. To preserve the greatest sonic detail and ensure a minimum of artifacts in the upper frequency range, the Precision EQ is up-sampled to 192kHz.
Precision Limiter
The Precision Limiter plug-in is a single-band, look-ahead brickwall limiter made primarily for use with program material. This intuitive plug-in achieves 100% attack within a 1.5ms look-ahead window, which prevents clipping, and guarantees zero overshoot performance. Both the attack and release curves are optimized for professional mastering, which minimizes aliasing. The Precision Limiter also features comprehensive, high-resolution metering, and conforms to Bob Katz's "K-system" metering specs. This metering allows the user to see what is happening to audio with a great deal of accuracy.
“From forensics to glorious sound-shaping, UA’s Precision Mastering plug-ins are just indispensable to the way I work.”

Almost Great EQ
I really like this EQ. I just wish L2 & H1 (the two middle bands) extended into each other's frequency ranges for some overlap. Would also be nice to have an output gain adjustment...

Almost Great EQ
I really like this EQ. I just wish L2 & H1 (the two middle bands) extended into each other's frequency ranges for some overlap. Would also be nice to have an output gain adjustment built in to the unit. The GUI is due for an overhaul, so maybe these little tweaks would be added then...
Beyond those gripes, I really like the EQ for cutting on everything. Quick. Simple. Clean.J. Seabrook
The Good & The Bad
Quick hits to start:
#1 - This unit sounds great.
#2 - The interface is inconvenient so I don't want to use it.
Let's start with the interface. It's too small. The GUI dimensions are tailored for a smaller screen size, and so on larger displays if feels small and cramped. I would suspect it's due for a GUI overhaul like the precision channel strip (which I LOVE), and I would then LOVE this unit.
Because, it really does sound great. I plan to spend some time to see if I can get used to the small interface because it really does do a good job at it's role. Dynamic EQ? You bet. Multiband Compressor? Punchy and controlled. Everything I run through this I can gently nudge or pummel into submission and it always sounds better. Combine gates and compression over multiple frequency ranges? Yes please.
But man, that small display...D. Matas

Amazing does what it needs to do

Excellent
A friend who's producer and live act as well recommended the precision limiter to me and i tried it out right away and loved it so much that i ended up buying it. Now after one month i can say that compared to many other limiters from any company it has a beautiful sound and works very reliable. My personal recommendation is using it along with the precision maximizer ;)

Wonderful
Simple. Powerful. Transparent.

Great Tool. One Missing Feature.
I'm happy with this purchase. No question. It has replaced most of the "other" limiters I was using with relative ease, HOWEVER, it is missing one feature. The ability to link input and output gain is kind of a necessary feature in the digital domain because I don't have 2 hands in my computer. In the rack, no problem. In the computer, not so much. That annoyance aside, its just a good clean limiter I will continue to use a lot of on every session. I'm still happy to have added to my collection. :)

A must have
If you want mighty drums with no artifacts this is your plug in.Clean, transparent, easy to use.Everything gets attitude with it!
Z. Abresch
Let "Big Smile" preset give you just that
This thing sounds incredible, even though you can't "hear" it due to its incredible transparency. I am still learning my way around all of the controls but just the "Big Smile" preset alone makes this thing worth every penny. Glues a mix together. Gives vocals a certain realness. An all-around fantastic piece of digital kit that does what it says on the box.

Brilliant !
Your bass, pour piano, your voice, your drums don't find its place in the mix ?
The answer is : Precision Limiter.
One knob to turn, and your instrument pops up ! Magic !J. Dreyfus
Good limiter
Works well in a processing chain for Voiceover and master bus. Adds a nice warmth when driven which is what we use it for. Kind of like a fancy saturator but for €99 it’s worth the money.
D. Taranov
Just might be the best multiband compressor out there
This thing is just perfect for precise taming any unwanted frequency range. It's fast but transparent and super easy to use. A must-have!
Y. Meltzer
Great EQ
Perfect highs!

CLEAN
This is a super clean limiter! I love the precision line of plugins!
L. Sanchez
Awesome!
For those of us who are just starting to Master, this bundle is very simple to use and with a meter on your chain, can get the clarity and loudness you are looking for
S. Wiese
This is the gold. Not suitable for live use though.
Of all of the multi-band compressors I have used this is genuinely the best for mixing in post! The latency is really long when you use it so it can not be used live, which is quite unfortunate. That being said I used it extensively for both compression and gating. Compressing mostly on buses and mastering but he ability to get this precise with a gate has been a game changer for cleaning up live spoken word.
4 stars only because of the inability to use live. As far as the sound goes it could be 5+ stars.J. Migchelsen

Adds glue tot youre mix!

Final track
This limiter has become my standard for the final mix insert on my output from my daw. It keeps everything in check and has a few useful presets.
H. Torres
Amazing on master bus
This multiband compressor is amazing at glue duties on the master bus. Really adds clarity to elements and makes the track sound professional. Just note it is not meant to be placed on regular tracks as it adds significant latency. This is best suited for mastering or on auxes while working with high buffer settings.
