Slate FG-X - tested it for a moment, I think it was kind of a benchmark back then, I don't thinks it is anymore but as far as I remember it was pretty good and loudĨ. DMG Limitless - not bad and definitely can get quality masters out of it, but I struggle with all the options, definitely prefer more idiotproof limiters, but it is well regarded on the internetħ. TB Barricade - same story as with Ozone, it equals the dynamics like a compressor but it's surprisingly clean considering the priceĦ. Ozone Maximizer IRC IV - can get close to AOM and IK in loudness, however it will compress the signal more and thus it's more pumping and has more distortion in the lower midrange, also I noticed transients are worse (probably because of compression under the hood). This and Stealth are only two maximizers I needĤ. Good bread and butter maximizer if you are not fighting for absolute maximum loudness + it has plenty of different modes to choose from. You can make it sound distorted though if you want to with fast release and no lookahead. FabFilter Pro-L 2 - definitely can't get as loud as two above, but I think it is because of respect for transients and avoiding distortion at all costs (even when you go for +20dB it hard-compensates for it). Balanced on Stealth Limiter is kind of tricky, couldn't replicate it fully in Inv Lim G2ģ. If you want to make Invisible Limiter sound the same as Stealth "Tight" make sure they are on the same oversampling options + if you want G2 sound the same make sure it's on "Modern V", knee and stereo link 0%. AOM Invisible Limiter - I thinks it shares the same code as Stealth Limiter, it has just more controls (in G2 version) but at the end I slightly prefer IK Stealth for simplicity and GUI. This maximizer just gives me that magic feelingĢ.
#L2 stereo master software#
It's the plugin that gives you "hardware feeling" although I know hardware is worse than software at maximizing.
#L2 stereo master how to#
It kind of distorts more "gracefuly" in stereo instead of mono when pushed hard? Don't know how to describe it, but somehow it maintains dynamics and makes distortion less noticable than competition while going really loud, this plugin really feels special. IK Stealth Limiter - it is the loudest out of all I tested, while respecting source dynamics, clarity and transients, my favourite out of all maximizers I demo'ed. Decided to test them once for a lifetime, here is my list so far (tested mainly on club music):ġ.
