MultiComp offers extremely precise and powerful control over the dynamics of up to five different frequency bands. This permits a mastering engineer to easily "segment" a mix into its various components with unprecedented control and fidelity.

Each frequency band can be processed and monitored independently - individual bands may be soloed, providing perfect control over every parameter. Fine tailoring of each bands' compression characteristic makes it ideal for single instrument control as well as an entire final mix.

MultiComp operates in two basic modes: the 'Classic' mode with standard controls for attack and release times and the 'Complex' mode with adaptive controls and multi-segment transfer functions. In both cases, parameters can be set separately for each individual band, making it easy to avoid 'pumping' effects associated with traditional compressors.

Transfer function curves can be edited by simply dragging on the user defined "breakpoints" in each band's display. Attack and release parameters, as well as each compressor's characteristic can be set either separately or for all bands simultaneously. The Limiter or SoftClipper (user activated) prevents unwanted clipping.
