Among numerous updated functions, the new Lake Controller software adds functionality to set the profile for the PLM's ISVPL (Inter-Sample Voltage Peak Limiter). The profile tunes the ISVPL limiter to be optimised for different frequency bands. By tailoring attack and release times for ISVPL, different frequency bands sonic performance can be increased. The Sub/LF profile adds punch and tightness to all sub and low frequency bands. The Sub/LF profile is recommended for all bands with a low pass of 300 Hz and below. The Universal profile is recommended for all other bands.
This release also adds BETA support for Dante in 48 kHz sampling frequency mode, providing PLM compatibility with other Dante 48 kHz products. With release 5.3, many improvements in the area of Super Modules and Multiple Controllers have been made as well as many other critical bug fixes and added functionality. Those running previous releases are highly recommended to upgrade, says the company.
