    I asked a lot of questions on this sorry for keep bringing it up



    at 7:53 avicii says that he uses that plugin to push everything up to 0 db.......

    at 7:54 exactly he moves the knob from -6 on the threshold to 0 db...but that would cause the plugin not working at all!.....


    can someone please confirm if that was a mistake or maybe it wasn't shown correctly on video?


    am i correct that by the way Avicii was explaining it, that the threshold should not be left at 0db so that that plugin starts limiting the whole session up to 0db...he should put the threshold knob at -6db or something like that right?

    On principle you're right, a limiter's threshold is usually lowered so it catches peaks below 0dB. But you can also push everything up so it hits 0dB (and above) and then the limiter starts to work.
