    Default Brickwall Limiter

    Is the limiter in Pro Tools 6.x a brickwall limiter? I have been having problems getting my mix loud and I'm not sure if the limiter that comes with Pro Tools is doing the job. I noticed today that the attack on it is greater then zero, and it defaults to 1 ms, but can be lowered to 0.1 ms, so I lowered it and got some better results. But it still seems like I'm not able to smash my mix with it enough to get it loud like other folks are doing. I've even resorted to using multiple limiters in series, but it seems like there is still some drum stuff getting out in fron of that attack setting and actually getting expanded. So I'm wondering if maybe its just not really caopable of being a brick wall limiter. What should I do?

    well i use more recent versions of PT but i assume that the Digi Comp/Limiter is what you referring too. it can deff be used a brickwall limiter....there is even a preset for it. of course it doesnt work as well as other limiters because its a shitty included Digi plugin
