Available for download, FinalPlug 6 from Wave Arts is a brickwall limiter designed for sonically transparent operation in mastering applications. Use it to ensure your peaks never touch the digital ceiling, while simultaneously setting a competitive output level for your final project. The limiter works using a lookahead parameter of 1.5 ms to predict peaks and react accordingly.

In addition to limiting, the plug-in offers selectable dithering shapes to help you in the down-resoution process. Many projects either operate in 24- or 32-bit before they get to mastering. However, a CD file is 16-bit, and going from one to the other can create truncation noise if dithering is not applied. This plug-in solves the issue by supplying TPDF dither with 12 selectable noise shapes. You can use this plug-in to bit shift down to 4 bits if need be.

FinalPlug 6 includes presets for CD and DVD audio mastering applications as well as track compression. The plug-in supports sample rates up to 192 kHz and can be used on mono or stereo tracks. It will operate in AU, VST3, and AAX formats, and will work with Mac and Windows operating systems.
