Whether you're aggressively processing a single track of guitars or looking for some modern, transparent master buss limiting, Pro-L 2 is highly flexible and likely capable of the sound you're after.
Pro-L 2's multiple algorithm approach makes it far more powerful than most of its competitors, and in my mind makes it the true desert island limiter for just about any purpose. In addition to the Modern algorithm, I often find myself reaching for Pro-L 2's Aggressive algorithm when I need a bit of tasteful distortion and clipping-style saturation it's usually quite useful on anything that needs a little extra character, and on percussive and beat-oriented source material. This notwithstanding, Pro-L 2 is by far the most versatile limiter I've found to date, thanks to it's 8 distinct processing algorithms, each of which truly has their own flavor and sound. One of the trickiest things about limiter plugins is that they can be highly dependent on the source material while most producers and engineers are looking for one plugin that's simply 'the best', the best limiter often depends on what you're feeding into it, and this is why I often keep a number of limiting plugins on hand to see what fits a particular mix best.
As with all of FabFilter's new plugins, Pro-L 2's plug-in window is freely resizable–something every plugin should offer, but few do–offering everything from a highly optimized Compact mode to a more spacious Large layout. Additionally, several new buttons are on offer along the bottom toolbar, including a headphone icon which toggles the immensely useful Delta processing feature we'll discuss in more depth later on. While much remains the same, a quick peek under the hood shows some substantial updates Pro-L 2 now offers several additional advanced metering options (including the most practical and eye-catching LUFS meters we've seen to date) and new display modes, which allow you to customize how you want to see audio represented in Pro-L 2's main display. In my mind, FabFilter does plugin interface design better than anyone, and has for some time–their plugins are instantly usable and familiar, with large, intuitive controls and an engaging visual display of how audio is being processed. Users of the original Pro-L will find the GUI of Pro-L 2 instantly familiar the color scheme is largely the same, with the same brilliant visual metering and interface elements that remain consistent across FabFilter's various effects processors and synths.
#Fabfilter one review serial
Grab the installer from FabFilter's website, authorize the plugin with your serial information, and you're good to go–no iLok or dongle needed here. As is the case with everything the geniuses over at FabFilter touch, Pro-L 2 is beautiful, easy to use (despite some seriously advanced functionality), and a breeze to install.
