The Massey Plugins L2007 Mastering Limiter is a plug-in designed for use for mastering, but is also suitable for other limiting purposes.  After downloading the plug-in from Massey's website, which has an almost fully functional demo available for free, I had the plug-in running within a few minutes.  The only limitations that the demo has are that it will reset its parameters to default every time you re-open it and you can't save any of your settings.  You also can't bypass it, but the plug-in is cheap enough that it won't cost much to get the full version.  The interface is pretty easy to follow and is quite easy to use overall.  It has knobs for threshold and max output as well as knobs to choose the mode and release.  There is also a good amount of metering available that definitely comes in handy for using this for mastering.  I've never seen the manual for the  Massey Plugins L2007 Mastering Limiter but you really don't need one anyway as it is easy enough to use on its own.



SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

Since the Massey Plugins L2007 Mastering Limiter is indeed a mastering plug-in, I generally only use one of them on the mastering fader.  However, it doesn't take up too much processing power and if you wanted to use this for mixing I don't see why you wouldn't be able to run a few of them at once.  I am currently running the plug-in on a Mac Book Pro that has a 2.2 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo processor and 4 GB of RAM.  I run the plug-in in Pro Tools LE 7.4, but have also ran the plug-in on a few different Pro Tools HD systems and it works great on all of them.


OVERALL OPINION

I really can't say a bad thing about the Massey Plugins L2007 Mastering Limiter.  I've been using it for a few years and really like everything about it - the sound quality, the ease of use, and of course the great price.  Even though the demo is great to have, to buy the plug-in doesn't cost much at all and it is nice to be able to save settings and bypass it.  For this price this is definitely the best mastering limiter plug-in that you can buy, and to me is one of the best deals out there.  Definitely go check out this plug-in and all of the plug-ins that Massey has to offer as they sound incredible and are incredibly cheap!
