    :woot:

    Firstly, -1TP is mostly about the various platforms' target, so it makes absolutely sense.

    Secondly, I've no clue what he's messing up but he is. :yes:

    Since I'm a big sceptic, I made my own test:
    • kick without EQ -0,1dB peak.
    • kick with ReaEQ 100Hz, ~ -10dB, Q down to 0,2 -> -0,1dB peak or less (in Reaper the smaller the number, the narrower the band!)
      Only with extreme narrow Q the level is raised, but with (two different) linear phase EQs it is not.
    • limiter with 7,5dB gain reduction did no harm to any transient at all.
    This guy maybe needs to check his setup.

    shitty & EDM /gay techno music doesn't care about true peak limiting neither RMS, CCIR or NAB. since it makes ppl shake themselves, buy lameshit J&B + Smirnoff and generate money. it haz to boom boom boom , and that's it.
