Xenon could become a go-to plug-in when you're mixing.

Manufacturer's description

PSP Xenon is a full band, dual-stage limiter plug-in (Audio Units, VST and RTAS for Mac OS X UniversalBinary; VST and RTAS for PC) featuring an integrated Leveller, advanced K-System metering and psychoacoustically optimized wordlength reduction. PSP Xenon offers 64-bit precision processing throughout its entire signal path, and can operate at sample rates up to 192kHz.

Once you experience for yourself the pristine, transparent response and intuitive design of this plug-in, we believe it will become your "go to" limiter for mastering and other critical audio applications.
