## What is FAC Clipper?

FAC Clipper is designed to enhance your mix's loudness and add signature harmonic warmth. While it is based on a similar DSP architecture to the Clip processor in FAC Punchlab, it takes a different approach to clipping control, featuring an advanced user interface with precise metering to track and manage the peaks of the audio signal.

The plugin also includes both a full-band clipper that processes the entire spectrum and a multi-band clipper, allowing you to independently clip low, high, or both frequency bands. This provides the flexibility to maintain transparent processing or experiment with creative adjustments, depending on your needs.

Built with simplicity and flexibility in mind, FAC Clipper is quick, lightweight, and highly intuitive. The clean, streamlined interface lets you focus on what matters most; controlling the peak levels to maximize loudness while preserving clarity and avoiding the pumping effects often associated with heavily limited signals.

Thanks to its precise waveform and level meters, using FAC Clipper is a breeze. Simply add the plugin to your track and adjust the input gain until the waveform meter reaches 0 dB. This gives you a clear view of the signal's dynamic range, making it easier to identify peaks. Next, set the ceiling just below the peaks you wish to control. You can also adjust the Knee parameter for smoother clipping and fine-tune the saturation to achieve the perfect warmth and character.

Use the Mix parameter to blend the clipped signal with the original audio, allowing you to control the amount of clipping applied. This helps preserve the natural character of the sound while enhancing loudness and harmonic warmth.

This is an AUv3 Effect and requires a compatible host to work

FAC apps always transcend my expectations in terms of UI/UX, sound quality, effectiveness and performance. Whether in Landscape or Portrait mode, I find Fred’s apps to be essential… all of them.

### 5/5 — Next Level

*2025-03-18*

This is so good I almost want to gatekeep. But I won’t be selfish, you knocked this 1 out of the park Fred ⚾️💨

### 5/5 — THE Clipper for iOS

*2025-03-18*

I've been looking for an iOS clipper for the longest amount of time on the MacBook I use orange clip when I talk to the developers of orange clip they said the amount of processing they do wouldn't allow it to be on iOS but here goes F absolutely delivering on this plug-in. The interface is very simple understand and beautiful I must add. I love being able to multi band clip. I will definitely use this on vocals and anything else

### 5/5 — Une autre pépite de chez FAC

*2025-03-17*

Ce qui manquait aux producteurs iOS, c’était un clipper de qualité professionnelle. Bien sûr, il y a Knock Clipper, mais FAC Clipper fait tout ce que Knock fait, en plus d’être multibande, avec un vumètre généreux, et en plus, il sonne tout simplement excellent. Une autre pépite de FAC !

### 5/5 — Great Clips

*2025-03-17*

A very responsive and accurate clipper. It's easy to dial in and it sounds great. I have other clippers but I think I'll be using this one a lot.

### 5/5 — Fantastic Clipper!

*2025-03-16*

Ease of use. Instant results. Wonderful!
