Audio editing 193
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.
Multiband technology also lets you specifically edit individual frequency ranges.
Link: When this function is activated and one controller is adjusted, all controllers are
changed at the same ratio. However, the way the dynamics are edited is not affected.
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.
Lo/Mid/Hi: These knobs define the level of compression for each frequency band.
Presets: MultiMax has a selection of presets for various applications.
Enhancer
The Enhancer enables the justification of the audio material in the stereo panorama to
be adjusted. If the stereo recordings sound unfocused and undifferentiated, an
extension of the stereo base-width can often provide better transparency.
Use the maximize function to move the echo and improve the stereo picture, for
example, into the foreground.
Volume controller: Adjusts the volume of every single channel to adjust the complete
panorama. The reduction of left and right levels is displayed under the control
buttons.
Pan-direction: Use this controller to move the sound source from the middle into
stereo panorama. The signals at the outer edges of the sound picture remain
unchanged.
Multiband: This option switches from "Stereo FX" to "Multiband" mode. Stereo
editing only applies to the middle frequency, the bass and highs remain unchanged.
Bandwidth/maximize sensor field: Adjusts the base width between mono (extreme
left), unchanged base width (normal stereo), and maximum base width (wide,
extreme right). Raising the bandwidth (values over 100) diminishes the mono
compatibility. This means that recordings edited this way sound hollow when listened
to in mono.
