mooseherman « Great Limiting Plug-in With Warmth! »
Published on 01/11/11 at 22:11I installed the Nomad Factory AMT Max Warm limiter with no problems. There were no compatibility issues that I had. The manual (a pdf that comes with download) was very informative. The setup was pretty basic and it's a really easy plug-in to figure out how to use. It can be used for mastering as well as mixing which makes it pretty flexible. It's not really a professional quality mastering plug-in but it'll work for home projects.
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
I've never had a problem with this software not working correctly. I haven't had to use it on a multitude of tracks really, so I don't know how opening multiple instances of it will affect the system, but I imagine that it would react similarly to most plug-ins would to that situation, which would be to slow down. It's been really stable with my Digi 003 rack overall. I've been getting a fast performance. I've been using it for a couple months now and I really like it.
OVERALL OPINION
The best thing about this limiter is the warmth it adds to a mix. I've basically been complaining that my mixes sounded dull and lifeless, and by adding this to certain elements of the mix I've managed to make it feel much better. I really like the extra low and high end EQ adjusters, which help balance out the frequencies after compression. This really helps the vocal feel more natural while still retaining the warmth that the plug-in provides. While this isn't what I always use I do like it more and more all the time, and am finding that I'll probably stick with it for awhile. I bought it in a bundle and all of the plug-ins in that bundle were totally worth it (price in interview reflects price of bundle as it's not sold seperately).
