Mastering plugins....?

[birdhouse19]

A note from some of the pros I found through various forums. Granted some of their chains may have changed through out time. But the idea of making a good mastering chain theory is there. All about experimenting. I use Waves Gold and Izotope Ozone 5 = Great to Me.

LaidbackLuke Master Chain: Limiter, Multiband and Xciter (Izone)
DB-D Dynamics Processor, Paramtric EQ, DB-D Dynamics Processor, Fruity Balance, Master Limiter, Ozone 3
Luke on Ozone: With the limiter, just a little bit of multiband limiting and with some extra harmonizing especially on the high end part.
SonicC: Compressor--> EQ--> Compressor--> Vintage Warmer--> Limiter or Ozone with Limiter enabled
Alano Tekashi: Compressor -> EQ - > Ozone
Thomas Gold: Linear Multiband Compressor (Waves), EQ (S), SSL Single Band Compressor (Waves), Pultec EQ (Universal Audio), L3 Limiter(Waves)
SHM: T-RackS 3, SSL Compressor, L3-LL Multi, PSP Vintage Warmer
Fadi: SSL, Linear Phase Multiband Comp, Expander, EQ, Limiter
Max Vangeli: Compressor, EQ and L2 limiter. (All Waves Plugins)
Skrillex: iZotope Maximizer, maybe with a little bit of EQ and harmonic excitement

plugins are often overpriced and don't believe the marketing words. if there are demo versions, you should try them all and decide which one fits your needs the best

But those plugins are freeware vst's for Windows, at least that's what the info says
