![]() CPU values are included, which are averages with all bands engaged- of course being system-dependent so may not be the same for you, but are useful to compare to each other. Latency in samples is included so you can know whether real-time usage is practical. I’ll also let you know on which channel strip of my continually-evolving Elemental Mixing Templates each currently resides, which you could use as a suggestion for what sort of instruments to try them out on. I’ll provide my personal take on each plugin below, as well as proffer some basic tech specs, like how many bands each has and what dynamic processes it can apply. As they say, “with great power comes great embarrassment.” No, wait-what was it? Well, anyways… multiband dynamics processors are powerful, and you must wield that power with wisdom. It’s better to analyze a given passage carefully, think and plan beforehand, “what is it that i want to do to the audio?” and then tweak the settings carefully to implement that result, and listen to see how it sounds. When it comes to adjusting the parameters of multiband dynamics processors, i’ve found that nonchalantly twisting knobs is usually only going to get you in trouble. What’s fascinating is how much variety there is among these plugins, each with its own distinct personality… which justifies for me the habit of gradually collecting plugins by various different manufacturers rather than sticking solely with “brand loyalty”. For me, this includes both multiband compressors/expanders as well as dynamic EQs, because i tend to use them for the same general purposes. I’ve decided that it’s time to write a post going over all the multiband dynamics processors in my audio plugins library. ![]()
