Peak Limiter processes your 16-bit sound files using a sophisticated algorithm. Single peaks exceeding a user-defined level are softly compressed in such a way that the result cannot be distinguished from the original by the human ear. This permits rising the main volume of the sound file considerably without causing clipping or distortion!

OBS

Peak Limiter can be used for CD mastering to make all the tracks equally loud. Peak Limiter enhances single sound samples, fully arranged music recordings and digitized speech. The result sounds more direct, voluminous, and even. It is more likely not to harm your equipment during high-volume playback and it is less inclined to suffer from noise added later on. These are optimum conditions for both playback and further processing. In batch mode, Peak Limiter is even able to process several files at a time.

Peak Limiter opère sur les fichiers-son PCM 16 bits stéréo & mono. Il possède un algorithme qui permet un renforcement du son de haute qualité.

Ceci permet d'augmenter le volume du fichier son considérablement, sans causer clipping ni distorsion!

OBS

Peak Limiter améliore aussi bien les échantillons sonores et les enregistrements musicaux que la voix numérisée. Le résultat donne un son plus direct, plus ample et plus égal. Il présente moins de risques d'endommager votre équipement en lecture à volume élevé et il est moins susceptible de souffrir de bruit ajouté par la suite. Ce sont les conditions idéales à la fois pour la lecture et un traitement ultérieur. En mode «groupé» Peak Limiter peut même traiter plusieurs fichiers en une seule opération.

When you use the same file over and over again, writing, rewriting, saving, and deleting parts of it on the same disk, the file becomes fragmented. That means that although you can’t tell, your operating system is storing all the data from that file as separate packages of information, distributed on different parts of the disk. Although fragmentation does not lose the information contained in the file, it does eventually slow down access to the file itself, because the OS must search the whole disk to create the sum of the file's parts. Defragmentation collects all those parts into one stream of data again, speeding up your system.

SIR... stands for Standard Interface Rack. SIR is a system for integrating hardware. It is a technology we use to take Earth things to space. The rack contains mechanical parts, called a liner, used to slide drawers in and out, much like a file cabinet. Drawers are used to contain or repackage things and make them flight ready. For example, we can’t take computers to space in the same outer packages or cases we use on Earth because some pieces may float out or the vibration from launch would destroy them. So, we take all the computer's guts from the central processing unit(its brain) and repackage it in one of these drawers. On the rack side, the SIR also provides power and data for the drawers through cables. Power for a drawer comes from a connector in the rack, just like a wall outlet at your house. Data cables serve many purposes, but the main one is for communication. This is so drawers can "talk" to each other, the Space Station, and Earth. For the computer drawer mentioned above, parts are wired to connectors in the drawer. When you slide the drawer into the rack, it connects to cables already in the rack.
