Huh? I'd be interested in hear what you think distorts less easily than Elephant v3 at the same loudness. In my experience Elephant is about as clean as it gets (provided that you know how to tweak it, but you can start with the "Master Punch" preset for most modern pop/rock stuff).

Perhaps the "adds something to bass" that you hear is actually Elephant being transparent compared to other limiters that seem to take away or distort the bass. Elephant retains the frequency spectrum of the original signal better than most in my opinion.

Cheers!
