Anyone had any success with L3

Im curious if you guys reach for this thing all the time.

i use it for dithering ,
when i save my 24bit 48khz mix down to cdformat,
i put the treshold at-0.3db

thats it, sometimes i push the treshold a bit but only untill i see a big of gain reduction, i find that pushing music trough this limiter reduced the overal punch of my mix, makes it flat (thats what a limiter does of course),
but some people just want it loud loud loud so i like it

but i dont use the multiband stuff, or sometimes i boost the highs a bit,
but i think u have to do this in the mix, if all your channels sound good,
then all u need is a compressor and eq on your master, and a limiter,
but not multiband, (only my opinion !)

i have another limiter that i use: "pocket limiter", super simple tiny plugin,
works just great ! and it looks nice too

when i had crappy equipment i was abusing software so much cause i needed to polish turds,
now im working hard on recording it all clean, then i dont have to use ten but only three plugins

I use it all the time. No other limiter like it!

I like pocket limiter or Voxengo Elephant 2 better. The voxengo plug has 4x oversampling which makes a big difference.

Ditto on the Voxengo recommendation. L3 is good, but overpriced IMO.

The elephant has too many variables for my liking.

But i would like to suss the beast out.
