Powercore - Brickwall Limiter ??? Opinions ?

insect1 · 19th June 2006

Thinking of purchasing the Brickwall Limiter..But it it's expensive for a one trick pony. Has anyone got experience of working with it ?
Comments ? Or advice for another UAD or Poco plug that will maximise my mixes level ?(Sony Oxford Inflator ?)

I just tried this for the first time the other day on a mix and I've got to say I wasn't overly impressed with the results. It definitely started "pumping" the mix even though I had only raised the volume 4.7db.

Can you buy the limiter seperately? I got mine when I bought the MD3.

I use that limiter on every project but mainly at the 2bus as a dithering and to keep the peaks sub 0dbfs.

uad's precision limiter is an excellent tool, and this is from a guy who routinely snubs plug-ins.
