Fuller and more natural sounding, while sonnox sounds a bit "squeezed", slightly aritificial and "metallic" comparing to it. Breathes less as if ... I was quite pleased. Today I also tried the new Sonalksis limiter - well, I did not like it much: a bit "weak" sound and effort comparing to these two to my ears ... |
Yea, great way to describe it. I also find the Elephant 3 to be very smooth and full sounding. Basically you have to know how to set up everything properly with all of the options but you can dial in a very nice sound with this plug in. It's better than Elephant 2 from my tests and Bob Katz mentions Elephant 2 in his book saying that it "performs very well." That says a lot to me.
