Try The Korneff Audio El Juan Limiter Open Beta For FREE

Try The Korneff Audio El Juan Limiter Open Beta For FREE

Korneff Audio released an open beta of El Jual Limiter, an upcoming limiter plugin for Windows and macOS.

Korneff Audio is an interesting developer. I reviewed Pawnshop Comp ages ago and was impressed with its performance and character when handling overheads.

They have scads of other plugins, all well-regarded by their user base. However, the one sticking point I see time and time again online is iLok.

Now, Korneff does use iLok for many of its older plugins. That is set to change with the release of El Juan.

El Juan is a mastering limiter with a few extra twists and turns, but there is an important catch to note.

You can download the 7-day demo right now for free with your Korneff Audio account. You won’t need to add a license to your iLok to try it.

Instead, Korneff Audio is conducting a Community Network Test for its new licensing scheme. If you sign up now for the open beta, that free demo will turn into a completely free license after the demo period elapses.

From the developer’s website: “All public beta licenses will expire on January 9th, regardless of the date of plugin installation. We will be issuing perpetual licenses for no charge to everyone who downloaded an EJL public beta plugin.”

I had it land in my inbox on the 26th, so some time has been put into using it. For the most part, I see it as a very useful bus limiter, and I love the input character and tone characteristics you can impart on a signal.

I don’t think I would reach for it over the likes of Limitless for actual final peak limiting.

That said, it has that Korneff sound. It can be in your face and brash or more sedate and gentle in how it imparts the limiting. One of the bigger selling points for me is the bit-rate reduction.

You can slam El Juan with the bit-depth slid down and get some crunch out of it like digital distortion. It sounds killer on Amen breaks and other 90s and 00s tropes regarding electronic music.

There is time to redeem the offer; however, you will need an account to go through with it. The public beta is available for Windows and Mac computers. Your plugin options are VST3, AAX, and AU. It is Silicon-native and runs splendidly in Logic Pro X so far.

IMPORTANT: Sign up for the open beta, and the free demo will turn into a completely free license after the demo period elapses. The offer expires on January 9th.
