MultiMax
MultiMax is a compressor with three independent frequency bands. The dynamics are edited separately
for each band.
The advantage of a multi-band compressor in comparison to a "normal" compressor is that the "pumping"
tendency and other disturbing side effects are dramatically reduced while editing dynamics. For instance,
it can prevent a bass top peak from "dragging down" the entire signal.
Multi-band technology also lets you specifically edit individual frequency ranges.
Link bands: When this button is activated and one fader
is adjusted all faders are changed in the same ratio. The type of dynamic editing is not influenced.
Limiter:
MultiMax includes a limiter that prevents clipping by automatically lowering the level. Quiet parts remain
unaffected.
High quality:
When the "High quality" setting is activated, an even more precise algorithm is used, but it also requires
more processing power. We recommend that you switch on this setting before you export the project.
Setting the frequency bands:
The settings of the frequency bands are changed directly in the graphic. Simply click on the separator
lines and move them.
Bass/Mid/High:
These knobs control the level of compression for each frequency band.
Presets:
In MultiMax you can use the presets to open two more special functions.
Cassette NR-B decoder: MAGIX Music Editor 3 simulates decoding of Dolby B + C noise
suppression if no Dolby player is available. Casettes recorded with Dolby B or C sound more
muffled and slurry if played back without corresponding Dolby.
DeEsser: These special presets are for removing overstressed hiss sounds from speech
recordings.
