Product Details:

EarShield is a limiter effect plugin designed to protect your ears and your mix by never allowing the signal to exceed a defined ceiling. It continuously adjusts gain toward a LUFS target and applies a brick-wall limiter to make sure peaks never slip through.

It's not going to be the main tool you'll use during your mixing/mastering sessions, but when your stems look like this:

It can save you some real ear damage.

Features

Unlike traditional limiters that just squash peaks, EarShield handles:

• LUFS-aware loudness control — keeps overall levels in check
• Hard ceiling limiting — absolute clamp on signal peaks
•  Real-time metering visualization so you can see what’s being limited
•  Simple, intuitive and straightforward controls
•  Minimal and performant
•  Built in VST3 and Standalone format (I don't have a Mac for AU, sorry!)

Built with  JUCE Framework and tailored for producers and engineers who want modern safety limiting with a clear visual feedback UI.

Let me know what you're up to on BlueSky or X!
