KClip - terrific little tool!

I just bought this new limiter tool and found it stunning. Highly recommended. £13 ($19.99) and even at that price they provide a demo!

Anyone else took the plunge?

Thanks, guys! Just wanted to chime in quickly and clarify that KClip is a clipper, not a limiter. Limiters actually reduce the gain of the audio, whereas clippers hard chop audio at 0dBFS.

I've received a few Emails about it, been thinking about it, but haven't got around to actually getting it. I have their Recabinet 4 (which is pretty nice), Recab 4 users can get it for $9.99. So after the praise, and at that price, I think I'll snatch it up now

Thanks for showing up and for clearing that up. Tips like that and showing up once in a while will be appreciated and pay off for you, I believe.

Bought it and used it last night on a master session. It seems to perform a cleaner result of what a good tape saturation plug-in can do. At least, audibly, that seems to be the result. Using the Waves J37 or Kramer Tape plug-in, I can typically find an extra 2-3db of loudness without introducing much damage to the audio. The KClip is simply a clipping tool that allow you to gain some loudness by intentionally clipping the final audio, so I use it in my chain right before the L3-16. 
 
You have to push it pretty hard to get a result that's too much. Worth the $20, for sure.
