b) Limiter 

A limiter describes a compressor with a compression ratio of 1:infinite what does 
mean that no level above the threshold is allowed to pass. Limiters are used for 
maximum protection of speaker components or maybe for securing maximum sound 
pressure levels prescribed by law. The 

‘Knee’

 value is comparable with the 

compressor too. Higher knee values allow to start limiting more softly, normally less 
audible.
