contents We investigate the limits of the multivariable signature function $σ_L$ of a $μ$-component link $L$ as some variable tends to $1$ via two different approaches: a three-dimensional and a four-dimensional one. The first uses the definition of $σ_L$ by generalized Seifert surfaces and forms. The second relies on a new extension of $σ_L$ from its usual domain $(S^1\setminus\{1\})^μ$ to the full torus $\mathbb{T}^μ$ together with a Torres-type formula for $σ_L$, results which are of independent interest. Among several consequences, we obtain new estimates on the value of the Levine-Tristram signature of a link close to $1$.
