What a limiter actually does
A sound limiter measures the volume in the room and cuts power to the stage when the level passes a threshold the venue has set. It doesn’t care whether the noise came from the drums or from three hundred guests cheering.
Why the live-lounge sound fits
Stripped-back arrangements and close-mic’d vocals reach the back of the room at a far lower level than a full amplified band, which leaves headroom for the crowd itself.
Ask the venue three questions
- What is the limit, in decibels, and where is the sensor?
- Has a live band played under it recently, and how did it go?
- Is there a separate limit for the ceremony or drinks reception?
