FabFilter

FabFilter,

I noticed that the Pro-L2 adds some DC offset of its own with some limiter styles. (Note: I did my due diligence, confirming that the DC offset was not coming from the tone generator itself, the DAW itself, etc.)

As an example with analyzing the styles I use most, Modern and Aggressive, I see a significant bump at 0Hz.

The DC offset control setting has no effect, as this DC offset is being added by the Pro-L2 itself.

When I add another Pro-L2 instance after the first, and configure the second instance to use the Safe style, unity gain, and DC offset on, it removes the DC offset added by the first Pro-L2. But I should not have to do that.

Can this be fixed in the next release, please?

Thanks,
Fred

The link is a screenshot of the analyzers:

Inputs are 1kHz sine waves at -1dBFS.

The left analyzer shows the output of a Pro-L2 using the Modern style; the right shows a Pro-L2 using Aggressive. Neither is ideal, but note how much more DC offset is generated by Aggressive.

I annotated the screenshot with some arrows pointing to the DC offset bump in the plots.
