The peak limiter in the Slate Digital plugin is quite different than most peak limiters sonically in that the more you bring down the threshold, you don't notice more dramatic compression or what I call "squashpression". I post often about the McDSP ML4000 which is my favorite plugin period, but is (and will still be) my preference for multi-band limiting as well as single-channel limiting during mixing. There are some impressive peak limiters out there as well as multi-band limiters. There are technical reasons for this, but that's best left for them to explain at their website: But talking about my experience and what I like/dis-like is the focus here. Playing with their FG-X VIRTUAL MASTERING CONSOLE I didn't quite get what I was listening or looking for at first, but then I took a moment to actually think about what I was doing-low and behold, it worked! LOL Seriously though there was this added punch and depth that almost sounded like I was hitting a pair of CL1B's-but I wasn't, and well CLB1B's are what they are for what they are. When talking about these new plugins, oh do they sound good! I think they are shipping in about 2-months or so, I can't remember to be honest.

Even then, no amount of software or digital code will ever replace great analog hardware, but that doesn't mean that it still can't sound good.
There are some amazing plugins out there already and there sure will be more to come.but very few have that analog sound because frankly, it's hard to capture. We are an authorized Slate Digital dealer.Yesterday I have the opportunity to test-drive the new mastering plugins by Slate Digital, a new division of Steven Slate that brought you Steven Slate Drums. Dual Core Intel or AMD Processor, At Least 2 GB RAM.Dual Core Intel Processor, At Least 2 GB of RAM.FG Comp is a compressor that's made to sound transparent.FG Level is a maximization plug-in that gives you control over your mix.Based on years of research analyzing saturation curves.Aims to preserve the dynamic range and punch of tracks.Uses new "Intelligent Transient Preservation" technology.When you're ready to end the loudness wars and bring real-deal mixes to the table, while maintaining the dynamics and musicality today's music has been lacking, you'll know you're ready for Slate Digital's FG-X. They know that the mix engineer worked hard to get the right color across the mix, so why alter it? Instead, FG Dynamics aims to maintain that quality, offering up incredibly transparent compression that gives you just the right oomph. What about the FG Dynamics compressor? Slate Digital recognizes that most top-level mastering engineers use very little compression, if any at all. Last up, you can use the "ITP" slider to prevent unwanted distortions or crackles, so you won't get weird artifacts in your masters because a mix has small bursts of low-frequency energy here and there.
And after the Slate Digital Gain maximizer, you'll want to use the dynamic perception parameter to make your final master sound totally open and punchy. The Detail feature helps you add more clarity and focus - ideal for your buried kick or snare sounds. Use the "Launch" parameter to transparently increase your tracks punch and dynamics, without unbalancing the mix.
With Level, you can use the Transient knobs to fine-tune your mix transients. Slate Digital's FG-X includes the FG Level maximization plug-in and the FG Dynamics compression plug-in. Using "Intelligent Transient Preservation" technology, Slate Digital's FG-X looks ahead at your mix and optimizes its response based on the transient coming up - it's not some one-size-fits-all compressor, it's custom-tailored to make your mix sound its best.
This plug-in bundle takes advantage of breakthrough DSP techniques to get your tracks pumping, without causing that lifeless, overly compressed sound. Please note: All software sales are final! We are unable to accept returns or apply refunds for any software purchases.
