Voxengo Warmifier

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.

I just finished my first major mix using Warmifier.  I put this plug up there with the best tools in my digital or analog kit.  Its a lifesaver.  You say the drummer had brass that sounded like ass? - warmifier will sweeten it.  Say the vocal doesn't pop into the pocket?  Warmifier's vocal preset somehow makes it a lot more focused. ... and I could go on.  The raves on gearslutz.com were correct.

Its so quiet and transparant that you can use it on a lot of tracks without any negatives as far as I can tell.  Ok, this is the joy of a guy with a new toy, but...  I would compare the effect on a track to something like the difference between a focusrite red and an api pre.  Subtile - but the api costs a thousand dollars more.  The Warmifier was 34 dollars.  I would have paid a lot more. t.

I am so thankful for the tools that you have made.  I am able to achieve control over sound that is simply impossible with "two-knob plugins." They certainly have their place, but I prefer to understand the character of different flavors of sound and mix/transform music with conscious intention, just as songwriters do so when creating their work initially.  Your tools enable me to express what I see/hear in my mind's eye/ ear.
