I seriously need to read about multiband compressors, mainly the Waves C4. Any reference on that? Jues can you write about it? Please?

Aug 06, 2003 11:55 am i've dabbled with the free VST multiband comp from MDA and i realize that it's great being able to focus on a particular band instead the whole channel, there's such and added degree of control, so i'm anxious to hear what jues has to offer on multiband comp. wake up jonny!
Aug 06, 2003 06:13 pm Hehehe, I would type it now, but I have just crippled my right hand playing too much "LiveforSpeed" (a racing game, my one vice :).
Tommorow!

Aug 06, 2003 11:22 pm no! i would never make fun of someone in a thread about multiband compression, precisely the topic i am most interested in. i've been rubbing my hands in anticipation for two days. which has caused a real problem in terms of raw skin loss.
Aug 06, 2003 11:41 pm then you were making fun of multiband compression? infidel! you will be bit reduced and noise gated!
Aug 07, 2003 06:55 am you fundamentally misundestand! i love multiband! i love everyone! i am actually this excited!

Aug 07, 2003 05:58 pm no! i wanna be the manic depressive! ::sobs::
okay you win
Aug 08, 2003 09:02 pm Any chace this topic will be back to its intent?

Aug 09, 2003 01:08 am waiting on jues to recover from his latest gaming binge. :O)
in the mean time, try thinking of it as a combination of several compressors, each accepting the outputs of a crossover. you choose the crossover frequency and then you get to mess with the individual bands before they get mixed back together into one.
i've gotten lucky a few times and resulted in wow results
Aug 09, 2003 07:57 am It's coming - I'm writing it offline and I'll submit it as a tute in a couple of days. I'm explaing the function and uses.

Sep 06, 2004 06:11 pm well, jues is i guess pretty busy these days. havent seen him in many months. but i dont think i've seen the multiband article here yet. i really hate to bring this up again, but does anyone--maybe some of the new peeps--use multiband compression on electric guitars? one time jues ran my guitars through a multiband and he made them shine, a really pro sound that was just what i'd been looking for. if i knew how to do this, my probs would be over.
Sep 06, 2004 06:33 pm Hey Forty
What app are you using (is it Cubase?). If so, there are some presets within the Multiband Comp plug within this app for guitars - may be a good starting point...
You can also try the Kjaerhus stuff (a very easy to use little plug for comp to be had as well as other effects - with lots of presets).
www.kjaerhusaudio.com/products.php - look for the "classic" series and donwload em - all free.
I tend not to use the m/b comp on my guitars except acoustics...seem to get good results double trackin the geetars withoot much else.

Sep 06, 2004 11:02 pm nice mang. i will get those kjaerhus things. yes, i use cubase but i wanted to learn how to actually tweak the thing. im not sure what jues did, but he tailored his settings to mu distortion tone and really made it come alive. like in a near-pro way.
Sep 07, 2004 06:28 am Aye, I think this one of the last great uncharted voids of knowledge for me. I should really stop being so damn lazy and look into WHY the whole comp thing works sometimes and other times, it dont!!
I will do this on my next EP. Im not going for sonic perfection but I do wanna improve technically.
Good luck tho Forty...if ya get there...mind and let me know the way!
Coco.
Sep 07, 2004 06:29 am Oh yeah..and get those plugs for sure. Top notch they are.
Easy to work and actually look like hardware models which is cool.
