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, it can prevent a bass top
peak from "reducing" the entire signal.
Multi-band technology also lets you specifically edit individual frequency
ranges.
Link: When this function is activated, when one slider is moved, all others
change in the same proportion. However, the way the dynamics are edited is
not affected.
HiQ: When the "HiQ" (High Quality) setting is activated, more precise
algorithms are used, which raises the processor load. It is recommendable to
turn on this setting before exporting.
Frequency band settings: Frequency band settings takes place directly in the
graphic. Simply click on the separator lines and move them.
Lo/Mid/Hi: These knobs c
ontrol the degree of compression for each frequency
band.
Presets: In Multimax you can open various presets for various user cases. For
example:
Cassette NR-B decoder: MAGIX Video Pro X4 simulates decoding of Dolby B
+ C noise suppression if a Dolby player is not available. Cassettes recorded
with Dolby B or C sound more muffled and slurry if played back without
corresponding Dolby.
Leveler: This setting automatically sets the entire material to an identical
volume level. Access to volume control is hidden. This way you can even out
steep volume differences between songs. To equalize volume variations
