Ivory 5 MAL-2: The Ultimate Mastering Limiter
Ivory 5 MAL-2 is Acustica’s own interpretation of a 2-band peak limiter inspired by a famous mastering dynamics processor from a well-known British manufacturer. Warning: It’s intentionally not a 1:1 copy of the hardware, so don’t expect the exact same behavior! This plugin is the perfect choice to control even the highest peaks if inserted at the end of the audio chain in a traditional way; however, it can also be used as an extreme tone-shaping tool on individual tracks.

To use both limiters, you need to turn on HF; this enables a crossover at 2kHz that splits the incoming signal into two bands, and allows you to work separately on different portions of the spectrum (LF and HF). When “HF On” is bypassed, the processor becomes a classic wide-band limiter.
