Both single and multi band. Free and spendy.

What's your fave?

I need one yesterday.

Right now I'm using GY's and Classic Master Limiter, both of which I like but I'd like to go a step beyond in terms of quality.

GY's---very smooth and warm but I think it muddies the bass.

CML---nice and clear but the bass gets a little distorted and the highs could be smoother.

Thanks for your suggestions,
Dave

in freeware I'd have to say George Yong's W1 Limiter.... (and of course I prefer the BetabugsAudio version with GUI - same algo inside)

payware... I really like T-RackS and VintageWarmer for the not as clean as the W1 sounds

Tls Pocket Limiter and Waves L2.

(GeorgeYoung is good too, and BuzMaxi3.)

Second on the Vintage Warmer. Edorphin can be useful too.
do it for the money

Edit: I meant GY's not GW's. I was calling him George Wong. :shock:

I've tried many. I forgot to mention Endorphin, which I also use and like a lot but I guess I'm looking for something I consider to be more transparent.

Elephant2 is supposed to be, but, truth be told, it's not one of my favs from him, though I swear by Soniformer and I just got GlissEQ and love it. I find the sound of Elephant to be colder sounding than the pre-processed material.

Still have yet to try GPP-1, though I don't think that has brickwall capability.

I just installed the Waves L3 and I'm a little underwhelmed. It's similar to GY's but I think shaves even more highs off.

Also tried Prosonic Dynasone which I like but find pretty edgy. and it's relly expensive.

Who's used GPP-1 and what do you think?
