Ceiling Fan (Clipper & Limiter) - Overview

With a whopping 7K Users in the last month alone, Ceiling Fan is taking up the plugin world by storm and earning its place on a lot of professional workflows.

But do you know what you can actually do with it?

We’ve put together this quick guide to help you get the best sound possible out of your new plugin. Check out these quick points below.


1. The Ceiling Knob

The Ceiling Knob sets a dBFS ceiling in your track. It sounds transparent if used sparingly. To avoid digital peaks (when mastering), it’s recommended to set it to at least -3dBFS for better results.

2. The Color Knob

The Color Knob is the secret sauce that really makes this plugin a hit. It relies on a state-of-the-art algorithm to saturate specific parts of your track, giving it a subtle feeling of power on the low or high end (dark and bright).

3. The Drive Knob

The Drive Knob is perfect to really bring home the sound and smash those transients in a pleasant way. It sounds vicious and nice at the same time. It’s best used for drums mixing or full track mastering.

4. Oversampling

This plugin has built-in oversampling at 8x, which means that it can be a little heavy on some CPUs, but it will make your track sound like gold and, at the same time, win you the loudness war.
