01Overview

The Wall is built for mixing engineers who need to deliver mixes as loud as commercial releases without losing the energy of the drums or the character of the sound. Boz Digital Labs says the plugin was developed because pushing a mix loud often degrades it. Instead of exposing dozens of technical settings, The Wall combines more than 30 parameters into one Flavor control. You set the level, then adjust Flavor until the limiting suits the song.

03In depth

Sound Character and Limiting Modes

The Wall includes dual limiting modes and a variety of limiting styles, all reached through a simple interface. Boz Digital Labs describes its algorithm as complex internally, with many steps handled for transparent limiting, so the user only needs to work with the Flavor control and level.

The developer states that three different limiting algorithms can be switched quickly, which lets you compare approaches on the same material without rebuilding your chain.

Metering, Oversampling and Dithering

The Sanity Check feature normalizes the output level so you can compare the original and compressed signal without a level change biasing your judgment. This is a practical aid when setting the limiter by ear.

Up to 8x oversampling is available to help prevent intersample peaks. The plugin also includes dithering as an option for the final output.
