A two-stage protection limiter for protecting against amplifier
clipping and loudspeaker damage. The first stage has ballistics
suitable for long term protection whilst retaining transparency
and minimising signal level loss. The second stage has
much faster ballistics to protect against loudspeaker
over-excursion.</p>

if the Attack and Release times are too fast since
it will be trying to apply dynamic gain reduction
to the instantaneous values of lower frequency waveforms.</p></li>
