Waves L2

Post by Belka »

Recognised that Waves Plugin Prices are really low during the February. Thought about buying the L2 for 80,- instead of 250,- (normal price), is the qualtity between the L2 to other Limiter/Maximizer, like the normal VST you get with the DAW, so much better? 80,- still a lot money for me. Want to use it for Bus Compression/Loudness. Is it worth it?
Actually use the Peak Limiter in Bitwig for such a work.
(Sorry for bad language)

Horrid bit of software.
Also you can't use it for buss compression because it is a limiter.

For buss compression you want a compressor, buy yourself Cytomic The Glue, or save some money and get the rather excellent Thrillseeker LA or Thrillseeker Vbl from variety of sound. Then you can gently compress your master buss by about 3db and it won't sound like someone shat all over your mix.
