Don't think so. If you look at Dayl's pictures, EQ is first. But you could EQ after a limiter, if you really wanted to, as long as you don't clip the channel._starcraft_ wrote:lol did i read that right? someone here sayin to use EQ after a limiter?

Daniel,
Allow me to compliment you on this plugin...really nice work here, mate. With 32X oversampling in this, it would be quite the supreme belter of a tool.
And so, in celebration of my safe, but some what jet lagged (flying sucks unless you are actually piloting the aircraft), return to home, here are some....
...mix buss presets.
These were lashed up on a nice dynamic -17db average RMS pop/rock track, (think Jeff Buckley), so they will have to be tweaked some depending on the nature of your particular source. Most notably, the input and output levels will need to be specifically tuned, but if your source is in the area of -17db average RMS things should be fairly close. Each preset works the mix in a slightly different way, and I have tried to set output levels to achieve roughly the same loudness as the pre-processed source. What you read below is found in a spiffy doc included in the preset zip file.
Have a go at....

These presets are not for the for the faint of heart...or to be left in the hands of children...or those with crippling substance abuse issues.
Classic Leveling Amp - Stacks the RMS and eats some peaks. You can raise the output to make up the headroom for more loudness. Ease off on the input to get some peaks back and generally increase the "transparency". Switch to "hard" to free more headroom, and switch "low punch" off for a tighter sound.
Cellulite - Longer release followed by a medium "hold" keeps the RMS in the fat zone. The relaxed "pressure" keeps bass and transients from being swallowed too much. You can try this one with the "low punch" setting...it will whip your mix a bit more, which you are sure to love...or possibly hate.
Slow Luvin - Near maximum release, and medium pressure, with just enough input to kick the compressor on the louder passages. A nice leveling amp setting for texturing a wide dynamic range without totally stiffing the mix, or working it too much. Fairly "gentle" but still puffy enough not to be boring. Use the "hard" setting for less bounce and more peak control.
Broadcast Leveler - Lower level passages get smoothly pulled up...good for some extra floor fill. This one can be tweaked to be surprisingly well behaved considering the amount of signal it is chomping.
Hedge Trimmer - Not in the least subtle. Basically, a really aggressive broadcast leveler. Maximum pressure...maximum release settings...definately bends the signal. Switch to "soft" for a looser feel and less peak eating. Sooo....why the stoopid name? Because, after this preset is done with your source, it will look much like a freshly trimmed hedge.
If maximum RMS is the goal...well, this preset with get you feeling the lurv...or, it might just make you blow chunks instead.
Puff Daddy - Kicking the input hard gives some serious whip to the track. This one has lots of character. A good preset for those definitive "pumpy mix" enthusiasts. Switching to the "hard" mode will eat more peaks, level the mix more, and generally reduce the puffy quality of this preset.
And finally, I leave you with...

Just wanted to say, I really like your TubeLimit. Used it for years. 
Looking forward to try out your other plugs.

eg a limiter can really destoy some eq operation you made by raising lowered frequencies materials and lowering raised frequencies materials, so it's always a matter of hearing, no rules like "no eq after limiting".But you could EQ after a limiter, if you really wanted to, as long as you don't clip the channel.

The old manual said different. At least that's what I remember and never used that "section" while mastering. Then again, I use SpectraPhy nowadays, but TLs sure was a good and transparent limiter. It only caused some delay in the audio chain if used while mixing (before sequencers could compensate that).ddummer wrote:Nope, it is before the limiting stage..You know that the EQ/Body stage is added AFTER the brickwall limiting, right?

Are there any ?
The main functionality is pretty clear on most plugins,
but sometimes some extra info would help.
