Product Description

• Blue Cat’s MB-5 Dynamix is an extremely powerful all-in-one multiband dynamics processor: it can be used as a multiband compressor
• limiter
• gate
• expander
• waveshaper or all combined at once
• on any part of the spectrum. The unique dynamics processing section of the Blue Cat’s Dynamics plug-in has been streamlined and integrated in this plug-in to process each one of the 5 bands separately. The plug-in provides unique envelope detection capabilities that let one band trigger the dynamics response on others (internal side-chain). Combined with the advanced stereo features including mid/side processing and independent channels activation
• it gives you full control over the dynamics of the signal for a wide range of effects. An additional brick wall limiter/clipper protects the output for complete control over the dynamics response. The plug-in provides comprehensive visual feedback to let you know what’s exactly going on at every step of the dynamics processor: for each channel
• monitor the spectrum
• the in/out levels
• dynamics response
• compression ratio and in/out level of each band… The user interface has been designed to streamline the workflow
• and despite the wide range of functionalities offered by the plug-in
• it is extremely easy to use. Inter-bands controls (copy/paste
• link…) lets you create complex treatments with a few clicks. Thanks to its advanced MIDI and automation output capabilities
• Blue Cat’s MB-5 Dynamix is capable of advanced side-chaining features: you can control other plug-ins with the output of the dynamics processing stage for simple side chain dynamics effects or more advanced signal-dependent effects. Check out our MB-5 Dynamix Tutorials for more details. Main Features: Full featured multiband dynamics processor: compressor
• gate
• limiter
• expander
• waveshaper. Up to 5 bands
• with crossover filters from 6 to 60 dB/Oct for optimal separation. Unique envelope routing capability for cross-band dynamics effects (one band may trigger another). Dry/wet control for parallel processing (“New York Compression”). Stereo or mid-side processing with multiple channels linking options. Post brickwall limiter or waveshaper. Comprehensive Visual feedback with real time response curves and levels display. Easy copy/paste settings between bands. Side chaining made easy: a unique way to perform multi-band side chain compression
