I think that depends on your material and what you expect to get out of it. Have you tried Wave Hammer? Set it for pretty steep compression above the cutoff and it'll squash your signal quite well.

Wow. That was the best advice I've ever received on ANY topic.

I've seen that WH plug-in for ages. Never bothered to investigate until just now.

I've been missin' out.

Thx so much

I've found the Voxengo elephant to be a fantastic limiter that you can put on individual tracks, or even better on the output track. It's sonically fantastic and near $70 or so.

www.voxengo.com. You can try before you buy (it drops out audio every 15 seconds or so in the trial).

Try some of these free plugins from Pacific Soundcraft. They show up in Vegas with the other third party plugins after you install them and seem to work better than the Vegas equivalent plugins. The limiter is a read ahead optimizer that seems to work very well even at the default settings to reduce clipping. The noise gate works just as well.

you might also try the Kjearhus plugs, they have some freebies, and they sound very nice regardless of the price or lack thereof. For a much better limit/compression, try iZotope

if you have Ultimate S 2, you already have a customized version of the iZotope compression
