Quality and performance makes Frontier a perfect tool for almost any studio situation. It’s simple and clear interface in combination with excellent sound quality will surely be appreciated by any engineer looking for an efficient way of controlling dynamics of a channel, bus or even master output. Frontier can be used as very transparent mixing / mastering limiter (at certain settings) with just licking the loudest amplitude peaks, or can be utilized more creatively, as sound shaper, when more extreme settings are at stake. The auto-gain algorithm automatically normalizes the signal’s volume after it passes the limiting section. This makes dialing in the required settings very quick and efficient. Frontier is not just a simple limiter. With selectable Control Input and optional Soft Clipping you have a quite versatile and creative tool. Appropriately configured in your DAW, Frontier can act as e.g. a mono ducker (using the Left or Right input channel as a control signal). The soft-clip option in combination with more drastic settings will reveal Frontier’s pleasing wave-shaping capabilities. Surely with time you’ll find more and more applications for this useful unit.
