Limiter
Definition:
power [<impedance>R] [<thermal power>W] [<peak power>W] [<amp-
gain>dB]
Description:
Sets thermal- and peak limiter. The higher power value is the peak power
which should be twice as much as the thermal power. Set the ampgain (in dB)
of your power amplifier. Normally amplifiers have 26 dB or 32 dB ampgain.
Additionally release-, RMS-, and peak time can be set.
Example(s):
power 8R 400W 1200W 32dB
# applies to speakers with 400 W AES
power with 8 Ohm nominal impedance
driven by a power amplifier with 32 dB

Release time
Definition:
releasetime <time>ms
Description:
Sets the release time of the thermal limiter. When the release time is not set by
the user standard values (60 ms for the output and 2500 ms for the input) are
set by the DSP. Only use this function when you know what you are doing.
Example(s):
power 8R 400W 1200W 32dB
releasetime 75ms
# sets the limiter value
# sets a release time of 75 ms
