Hi!

today i tried Event Horizon+ for Mastering and it is awesome.

I used it twice one time in clipper mode and one time in limiter mode.

Which Order would you recommend?  
I had clipper first, would limiter first be even better?

And another Question:

Can i somehow connect the treshhold and the ceiling?

So that i can dial in some loudness and listen if the sound changes without hearing the loudness increase at that time.

Is that possible?  
I am using Reaper.

Thanks!

I don’t know that I WOULD try to use it twice, but if I did, I’d use limiter first and clipper second, probably.

There is currently no way to link threshold and ceiling, but it’s not a bad idea, so I’ll consider it for a future update. No promises, however.
