What it does

Still Multiband splits the signal into four bands with Linkwitz-Riley crossovers that sum back flat, then compresses each band on its own. Tame boomy lows without touching the vocal, or calm harsh upper mids only when they jump out.

The display shows each band's live level, its gain reduction and a dashed threshold line you can drag.

Key features

  • 4 bands; drag the crossover lines sideways to move them
  • Drag each band's dashed threshold up or down; double-click to return it to −18 dB
  • Live level per band beside its threshold, with gain reduction hanging from the top
  • Solo and Bypass per band
  • External sidechain, split into the same bands

Quick start

  1. Pick a preset close to the source.
  2. Move the crossovers so each band holds one problem (boom, mud, harshness).
  3. Drag a band's threshold line down until its gold reduction moves only when the problem shows up.
  4. Use Solo to hear a band on its own.

GOOD TO KNOW

Crossovers are minimum-phase, so there's zero latency, and the bands sum back flat within 0.05 dB.
