Hey Steve. The Pro Compressor and Pro Limiter plugins are part of Avid’s Pro 
Dynamics range. The other two plugins in the range are Pro Expander and Pro 
Multi-band Dynamics, which are also indispensable. If you can swing it, I 
highly recommend the Avid Complete Plugin Bundle, which includes these and a 
lot of additional tools that make a huge difference. The subscription option is 
super flexible. I do the yearly one for 50 USD. The Multi-band Dynamics also 
has a Multi-band splitter plugin that works really well in mastering, at the 
very least allowing monitoring of 4 parametric bands on aux tracks. 
Indispensable is putting it lightly, and reasonably priced for their utility is 
an understatement on how worth it these plugins are.
