Overall, this unit is transparent but warm and sounds fantastic with great low end and a super-even overall response. Had I needed a rational amount of compression, I would have gone with the MPC. I also tried the unit on vocals but wanted to really whack them with a lot of compression, and I didn't like the MPC as much with extreme compression, so I went with an Altec 438C instead. I kicked in the compressor on the unit and used it to completely even out the low end on the guitar, thus avoiding any evil or demonic EQ on this wonderful guitar. Of course this left the weenie engineer with a boomy and uneven low end on the guitar. The only mic/placement that the artist was happy with was a 57 semi close to the hole of the guitar. I was faced with a situation where I was adding acoustic guitar to an already thick mix. I used the MPC on an acoustic guitar track and it blew me away. sections so you can vary the tone from a clean to saturated tube sound. There's also a gain control for both mic and inst. The Hi-Z input also has an impedance matching pot, so you can adjust the loading factor of the pre. Peak Limiter Plug-In (Download) Extensively parameterised peak limiter for professionally mastering. It has a Hi-Z input on the faceplate making it real convenient to use with line instruments.

I first used the unit as a bass pre and it worked great.

The result is that you get to see and automatically correct otherwise invisible reconstruction overloads - and conform to the accepted industry ITU-R BS.1770-4 standard on which most broadcast delivery specs are now based on like the EBU R128 and ATSC A/85 specs. However the new Limiter is currently only available on the Mac platform but Sonnox do tell us that the Windows version will follow on soon. The new Sonnox Oxford Limiter Plug-In is a true peak limiter that offers enhanced levels of processing and metering accuracy. Sonnox have also released a new MAstering collection and included the new Limiter plugin in this 5 plugin bundle. While maximizing volume, the Sonnox Limiter could produce an aggressive punch or warm, beautiful limiting of the material that I could not replicate quite the same with other plugs. Following the launch of the Sonnox Oxford Limiter v2 on the UAD platform earlier this year, which brought true peak limiting to the Sonnox limiter, we can now announce that Oxford v2 limiter is now available for users of both AAX Native and AAX DSP systems. I chose the Sonnox Oxford limiter after hours of A/B comparisons of seven different limiter plug-ins demos for final mixes.
