There is still a peculiarity among bands 1 and 4; The filter curve for these
bands can be changed from a normal "peaking" EQ filter (
) to "shelving"
(
) (this is the basic setting) and high (band 1) or high-cut (band 4) .
When using the "shelving" filter, a soft increase or decrease in all frequencies
happens above or below the filter frequency, and the Q parameter does not
have a function here. With a low-cut or high-cut filter, all frequencies below
(low-cut) or above (high-cut) the set frequency are filtered out.
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 versus a "normal" compressor is
that the "pumping" tendency and other unwanted side effects are dramatically
reduced while editing the dynamics. For instance, this prevents a bass peak
from "reducing" the entire signal.
Multi-band technology also lets you specifically edit individual frequency
ranges.
Link: When this function is activated and one fader is adjusted, all faders are
changed at the same ratio. However, the way the dynamics are edited is not
affected.
HiQ: If the "HiQ" ("high quality") setting is activated, an even more precise
algorithm is used, however this requires more processing power. We
recommend switching this setting on before exporting the project.
Setting the frequency bands: The settings of the frequency bands are
changed directly via the graphic. Simply click on the separating lines to move
them.
Bass/mid/high: These controllers define the level of compression for each
frequency band.
Presets: Multimax provides access to presets for special applications, for
example:
