Some of the Dimlite stuff I suppose I can still listen to, and always what I'm doing right at the moment as Dim Grimm. The latest Misel Quitno recording, «Seams of the Days» – an excursion for single synthesizer. And the two Perlissop EPs I released as Dim Grimm. The second one came out recently.

Over ten years ago, when Dave came out to a show in London to tell me about his brand, which was Sonalksis back then. I still use those sometimes.

I would call them proper tools, extensive. I think they offer a sort of individuality for the user, as opposed to something that just sounds the way it sounds. DMG plug-ins can be made to sound however you want. They demand exploration.

Dualism has become quite important for analyzing, since it can do it all. I also use it to blend sources. Limitless, is in my opinion the best plug-in limiter currently available. And then today, although I'm generally not much for gating drums, I had to isolate this kettle drum... just to find out: nothing in my admittedly small arsenal beats Expurgate when it comes to gating.

I've attached my Limitless mastering/default setting. Nothing out of the ordinary. It’s single-band, and usually it works. But, I JUST stopped using the limiter to get loud results. For this second Perlissop EP that just came out and the following stuff, I decided it was time to finally dismiss unnecessary loudness, even dismiss the pointless discussion about it, and just do what sounds fine across my devices: -13 LUFS. So, Limitless is still in use, but barely working, because I... limit less.

A better life for me?
