Do you, or anyone else, have an informed opinion for
whether lookahead or hard is the most appropriate and
why? In all honesty, I don't know. JAMin is headed for
a 1.0 release and I think it would be interesting to
debate whether we're using the best limiter for the
job. Steve and I have briefly touched on this topic a
couple times. It could be that we're using the
appropriate limiter.
I did a bit of reasearch at the time and it looked like all the
respectable mastering packages use lookahead. Wether the implementation is
the best for the job is another question.
I suspect it should have a peak allowance mode, which ignores very short
peaks at over 0dB and clips them.
