new Sony inflator plug-in?

[yuppie]

hi there,
someone has tried this new plug from sony?
it should be a sort of maximizer to be used to increase loudness of the mix or master....
there's a demo on the sony site.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Just downloaded the demo and it's very impressive. Not just louder, but warmer AND louder. This has the potential to be a must have....

One of those where you have to read the manual twice to figure out what the heck its doing...

What's up with the clipping?
If tried placing the L2 after the inflator and set the max output to -0.3 and still the master fader clips.....Even so at -6dB what's up with that?

The L2 and Inflator are different things... I've been using the Inflator much more. Has more detail.. and dials-in in warmth (harmonic distortion like a HEDD or Fatso)...

I know they are different!!

But if you place the L2 after the inflator. The sound should not be able to extend beyond the L2's brick wall.
I am just trying to figure out (theoretically) what is going one with this clipping.

If the L2 and inflator are on a master fader,
the fader is BEFORE them and so is the clipping you see. Plugs on master are post
fader

JGuth is right. The plugins are post fader.

Put a spectra foo meter on the output so you can see whats really on the bus.
