So no one else did before - i will start with my review:

in short terms: this is the most versatile and transparent Mastering Limiter i've ever used.
Simple to learn and use and beyond most Limiters on the market is the multifactor function it offers: classical peak limiting, RMS limiting, M/S limiting (good for less widening of the stereo image) and Envelope limiting

For 10€ for such a Beauty u can't go wrong.

It offers transparent sound, switchable Metering by Bob Katz: normal peak, K12,14,20
it also has an ISP algorithm to prevent peaks between peaks which wouldn't be recognized by a normal limiter (like up/downsampling)

and last but not least: a small dither option and the ability to soften the peaks with softclip function

Appendix for my rating: I have chosen only '3' points for Presets because there are only view. This baby is so easy that you don't need them
'5' for Customer Support because i didn't need it until now



This thing has all and more you can wish from the final mastering stage!
