You can (and sometimes must) tweak the Limiter to get the desired sound and Elephant has a lot of options. You must play with the Look-Ahead, the ratio etc. if you hear too much distortion or it sounds too smooth there are always some options under the hood.electro wrote:Brickwall Limiter needs presets?4damind wrote:I played a bit with the parameters and got also the snappiness back (the look-ahead must a bit lower then I expected but fortunately there is not much distortion)... Yes, I think the GUI needs some improvements and IMO it needs some better presets to have a quicker start...
I thought you just push it until you hear artifacts, then back off some. The Waves L1 GUI made it easy to A/B the unprocessed VS the limited signal at the same volume.
So it makes sense to have some more categorized presets for typical usage.
