[Art Lee] "This generally makes the VO stand out and sound clear and the other tracks to recede (A kind of ducking effect I guess) The problem is that it causes kind of echo/reverb in the music track. Increasing the limiter release reduces this a bit, but then the VO isn't as loud / clear."
The short answer is that you really shouldn't be using the Limiter as a substitue for actually mxing your audio levels. If you are crashing your music hard into the Limiter it will always sound terrible.
Try and ride your music levels using keyframes if you don't have a mixing surface to do it with. This is really the only way of getting a decent result, sorry!
The longer answer is that you should be looking at using compression rather than limiting - but as I say it's a long answer.
