Beyond LIMIT-1

Future concepts

Concept
LIMIT-1 Desktop
macOS / Windows

Full macOS app via Catalyst and a native Windows build. The C++ DSP layer is already platform-agnostic — only the UI shell adapts per target.

Research
IR Library
Cabinet Impulse Responses

A curated collection of cabinet impulse responses optimised for live use — normalised and tagged by speaker type, mic position, and genre.

Concept
LIMIT-2
Next Generation Hardware

8-knob hardware revision with USB-C audio I/O, expanded parameter mapping, and a larger form factor for studio-to-stage portability.
