CSA Plugins

CSA is a collection of LADSPA plugins dedicated to FM broadcast. Designed by the "Commission Technique Canal B", a group of geeks from a free radio in Rennes France. This project is part of a wider one named COÏT. It's a low cost audio, and high quality link between radio studios and transmitter sites.

Extended Fast LookaheadLimiter

"Extended FastLookahead Limiter" is the first plugin written by the Commission Technique. It's a Lookahead limiter with a 8 band EQ in side chain and a loop back leveler. It may be useful before a FM transmitter. As FM Broadcast signal is emphasized, this limiter should work on high frequencies.

Cellular Leveler

This plugin adapts the output mix of studios to the transmission médium. It scans signal with up to 64 cells (time intervals) and adjust it to a reference level. Just behind this plugin, a limiter will end the work.

Listen, test and enjoy !
