Depends on what the song needs but, aside from limiting, it can include:
EQ, compression, multi-band compression, width, harmonics, distortion/saturation, rebalancing, etc.

The Alpha demo looks amazing. If I understand it correctly, it has compression followed by a soft clip limiter in an all in one package. Plus Side chain & mix functions and more. It seems that Soft Clipping plugins has grown in popularity as of recent. However it also seems as there are some Pro's and Con's to Soft Clipping versus Limiting. Of which I have much to learn. https://www.soundonsound.com/sound-a...g-and-limiting |

The S&S article mentions only that soft clipping is less aggressive. Now my experience has been that in either peak limiting or soft clipping if you do too much it will begin to sound harsh and unmusical ( And is one of the reasons that the 2 less aggressive compressor approach has it's subscribers) particularly in the digital age ,,, But it is my understanding another and perhaps the most important difference between hard clipping and soft clipping is this (lifted from an iZotope article on soft clipping) where the corner is rounding into the clip on soft clipping Now IF you want to play around with a soft clipper ,, Massey plugins has one and agin you can download a functional (except saving the settings and bypassing ) demo version that does not have a time limit This will download all Massey plugins https://www.masseyplugins.com/demo but when you launch the dMag you can choose which to install .. The lookahead brick wall limiter is the L2007 and soft clipper is called The Golden Master The GUI looks like this
