The transparent limiter and loudness maximizer for making mixes louder during mastering in a natural way without sacrificing sound quality.

Kratos 2 increases perceived loudness as naturally as possible while keeping Kuassa’s familiar, straightforward workflow: crank the Maximize knob, tune the unique Texture knob for a smoother or harder character, adjust attack and release for a tighter or looser response, then set the knee for harder or smoother limiting. Kratos 2 also offers an adaptive mode for attack and release, a dithering section, up to 4x oversampling, a latency compensation toggle and completely redesigned graphics.
