Voxengo Elephant

I use Voxengo Elephant on Linux (kxStudio 16.04) in Ardour via LinVST.

I pretty much use it in all my mixes in the master strip.  If you don't drive it into insane compression, it performs very well, you can't hear it but you're forever safe from clipping.  Best practice seems to be to use a multiband compressor first to create a transparent master, and then apply a little bit of loudness and limiting with the Elephant.

A valuable tool for me which I use every day.  Great!

I have been using Elephant and Soniformer while mastering for YEARS and there isn't a better combo for raising gain and controlling compression/eq without squashing the whole mix.  Sometimes I add in the TransGainer for that extra sizzle and especially to liven up a room mic or a drum bus.  The versatility of the products really shine when you get into the details.  And the fact that I use them sometimes in 20 instances (Elephant makes a great limiter) in Cubase 5 on a PC and never bog my system down and keep low latency.  That is just great programming and the reason I will be back for more!  My songs recorded with your products have been on radio, film and TV, so thanks for supplying such remarkable tools!
