Voxengo Elephant

I was at an awards evening a few days ago and it occurred to me just how much I have come to rely on the Elephant Limiter.

Like most professional mastering engineers, I own a range of top quality limiters (including the old L2 hardware even).  However, in my chain anyway, nothing seems to equal the Elephant in terms of getting the best out of the song.  I chose it almost 100% of the time.

And it has served me well … in the last little while alone it has seen songs I have mastered go to #1 iTunes, sell double platinum, #2 hot 100, #1 iTunes metal, make the ARIA charts (our equivalent of the RIAA), #1 country radio, over 15 million streams on Spotify alone, win song of the year, artist of the year and so on.  All with the Elephant as limiter.

I just wanted to say how much I genuinely appreciate your work on the Elephant.  Thank you so very much for such an outstanding limiter!

All the best

A word on Elephant.  I use quite an array of plug-in processors and effects(within my DAW) in my work.  Some are very expensive and do an incredibly professional job (provided you take the time to learn how to use them).  Heres one of them with a slight exception.

Elephant is an excellent track limiter.  Especially for rhythm and drum tracks.  Acceptional control with a silky, yet somewhat nuetral sound.  Its user friendly with a simple, but effective interface.

The exception.........its not one of the more expensive products.  The results just sound like it.

I have been very pleased in using several of the Voxengo processors in different professional projects.  After learning what they do well ( and they do alot ), sound sculpting becomes that much easier.

Also...my feelings tell me that this company isn't going to rest on its laurels and there are further treats to come.

You´ve got great plugins.  Smart, good looking, sophistique, clear to use, low CPU...etc. but first of all - they got unique style.  Dont´start "copy" any classic effects, tape machines, or just anything.  Just keep your own style and way to make plugins, there is so many copymakers in the business...

All the best for the New Year 2018!
