Dynamic Processing Firmware V1.9 introduced two
powerful new processing tools to the FX Rack, the Dynamic
EQ and the Multiband Compressor. These are typically
found in recording and broadcast but becoming increasingly
popular in live sound mixing. You can find out more about
their application from specialist publications or the Internet.
Load these effects into available slots in the FX Rack and
then Insert them into the required channels or mixes, for
example a lead vocal channel or an instrument group. Patch
the processor using the FX screen Back Panel view.
Multiband Compressor A compressor where the
signal is split into several frequency bands and each is
compressed according to the dynamics of the signal within
that frequency range. This can reduce the ‘pumping’ effect
common in single band compressors by preventing the
compression affecting unrelated frequencies.
The FX Rack includes two multiband compressor types,
MultiBD3 (3-band) and MultiBD4 (4-band), providing
independent compression control over 3 or 4 different
frequency bands.
