Voxengo Elephant

I've used/designed/studied limiters for years.  This is a remaining "black art" in audio.  Its easy to make a limiter to contain peak levels as long as you don't care how it smashes transients.  Its easy to design a limiter that pretty much preserves transients if you don't care about perceived loudness.  A limiter with "hot" output which still preserves the transients is unusual.  Elephant does this better than any limiter I've ever encountered at any price.  People are suspicious of low-priced products, usually for a good reason.  In this case, don't be.  Check this limiter out!  I don't know all the magic behind this one but its real.  Again, best limiter I've ever heard.

I'm surprised to find myself so impressed as to have to publicly rave once again.  I've been trying out Elephant extensively on my tracks for Lyraka Volume 2, and this plug-in does what I thought impossible: gives top rated suites like Izotope serious competition.  In fact, the more I use Elephant the less I use any other mastering limiter.  The controls give you a phenomenal amount of power over the sound, without a daunting learning curve.  This is yet another winner from what I'm discovering are an elite set of plug-ins from Voxengo.

I just bought this plugin, and have to say it's absolutely brilliant!

For years now, I have been using some plugins that came with my DAW, which I had become accustomed to.  I have always struggled to get my mixes to sound sufficiently loud without making them sound squashed.

As soon as I tried Elephant for the first time, I could hear the difference that this plugin could make to my work.  Elephant is truly amazing - it is incredibly transparent, and the metering and graphing options come in very handy too.

Thanks so much for such a great product!  I'd recommend Voxengo Elephant to anyone who needs super high quality buss compression.
