To select the crossover type, right click on the mini-spectrum and select the “Crossover

Options” menu item as shown below.

Once selected, the Crossover Options screen appears. Here you can specify whether to use

analog or digital filter models for the crossovers. Note that if you use digital crossover, you

can also specify the slope or “Q” of the crossovers.

Which should you use? As always, it’s a matter of taste. Analog multibands can provide a

desirable coloration of the sound, while digital crossovers provide linear phase “transparent”
processing.

Multiband Main Points

If you can hear the “parts” of your mix captured in each of the bands you’re in good shape. If

you don’t know exactly where to set them, don’t worry. Once you start applying processing to
each of the bands you’ll begin to develop an intuition for where they should be set. The main

ideas at this point are simply

•

Multiband effects are applied independently on up to four separate bands

•

Each band should represent a musical region of your mix (bass, warmth/vocals, air,
etc.)

•

You can adjust the cutoffs of each of these bands

•

You can mute the output of the bands to hear exactly what is passing through the
remaining bands.

So let’s just leave it at that for now and have some fun with a little multiband processing.

Bonus Tip: Right click on any control and you can copy its value to the clipboard. From there,
you can paste the value to another control, or even another text application (Notepad, Excel,

etc.)
