In electronic music, many sounds are very much "upfront". OTT is what many choose for this purpose.
However, I have found that Varisaturator is much better in place of OTT when it comes to this purpose. Much more controllable and much smoother (even though OTT is multiband compression and Varisaturator is multiband saturation/inflation) In most cases where I would choose OTT, I am using Varisaturator instead for the same purpose and it does the job much better. This small change has improved my mixes for electronic music a lot.
Second thing is soft clipping with OVC-128 on buses to smooth and contain, then followed by high end expansion with Soniformer to rebuild some dynamics and transients is an amazing combination. Smooth, contained and dynamic.
Always finding new relationships and uses with your plugins, thanks!

I have been using Elephant and Soniformer while mastering for YEARS and there isn't a better combo for raising gain and controlling compression/eq without squashing the whole mix. Sometimes I add in the TransGainer for that extra sizzle and especially to liven up a room mic or a drum bus. The versatility of the products really shine when you get into the details. And the fact that I use them sometimes in 20 instances (Elephant makes a great limiter) in Cubase 5 on a PC and never bog my system down and keep low latency. That is just great programming and the reason I will be back for more! My songs recorded with your products have been on radio, film and TV, so thanks for supplying such remarkable tools!

I thought I'd drop you a note just to say that I have no negative issues with the plugins. I like using all the ones I have and love the sound. I find them easy to use and understand. The pricing seems very fair to me as well. I also wanted to especially note the look of the plugs. I prefer the straight forward layouts as opposed to very elaborate GUI's or emulations of "vintage" looking devices.
