I actually use the Multipressor in Waveburner (same plug) with some success to "master" my recordings. To my ears, it works OK, but I don't use it very heavily. It seems overly sensitive to me. I mean, I rarely put any of the ratios above 1.4:1, even after raising the threshold. Then I stick the stock Limiter in right after that with just enough gain that it BARELY nips the top off of the big peaks. Sounds pretty good to me for not having any third party plugs or outboard gear. I'm generally light with my compression overall, though.
