Generally, there is no effective advantage between a transparent multiband compressor vs a decent dynamic eq. Usually, compressors are used as much for their color as for their ability to control dynamics. It comes down to what change to an audio track is needed and how a specific tool behaves when determining what is best. Even some stock DAW dynamic eq's have ratio, attack, and release controls these days. To me the general rule of thumb is if I want color I go the compressor route, if I want transparency I go with a dynamic eq.

I thought that dynamic eq is transparent because it doesn't cause phases issues like mb compressors. Thanks for the video 👍 I will use ReaXComp more often now🥳

That’s a good note but most compressors and EQs don’t have built in phase functionality. Thankfully the Pro Q and Pro MB both do so I think the two of them are a fair comparison with a winner. However, if we are comparing other branded EQs and Comps that don’t have built in phase functionality like the FabFilter plugins, then yes, that would absolutely be a much bigger consideration

What are your thoughts on multiband saturation/clipping? I use KClip pro3 and waves L3 multimaximizer in conjunction a lot in the mix and master

I haven’t played with that on a multiband level a whole lot but it sounds interesting as I do love my saturation (and occassionally clipping too). I’ll look into it and get back to you with a more thorough review, thanks for mentioning it 🤙🏼

How do find the frequencies with the MB ? Do u sweep with it like an EQ?
@5piece
@5piece Жыл бұрын
Generally, yes. I like to create a new band and then SOLO the frequencies within it to identify the area I want to treat. You can sweep the band around just like an EQ, and even adjust the boundaries until you find what you want to address. Hope this helps.

this is why i dislike static EQ. Theyre great for static problems, such as notching resonant frequencies that dont move etc, but not for dynamic content. USUALLY if youre boosting/cutting etc, you only want it at certain times, not all the time.

So should u just use mb compression instead of anything else? Why do ppl even use eq
@LossLeadas
@LossLeadas Ай бұрын
because EQ can CUT basically roll off frequencies..so basically EQ vocals then add a MB

Pro Q3 is multi band. IMHO You could use it in all this examples as the MB. The only difference I think it’s the envelope for the MB. That small big thing makes it worthy to have both fab filters (mostly for transient shaping) not?
@5piece

For sure. To be fair, I'm going to the extreme in this video (writing this comment longer after I posted it) and absolutely agree the two tools can be used inter-changeably. However, I do find MB Comp's pretty much always have the envelope related features guaranteed, whereas not every Dynamic EQ does. That alone is enough to push MB comp into the "winning" slot for me, since I love having maximum control. Does that mean I don't use dynamic EQ ever? No. But if given an choice between the two, I am more likely to reach for the MB personally for the reasons outlined in this video. If you have access to the same options on both (being a MB comp and dynamic EQ that both have envelope-controlling features), then the difference becomes much less noticeable or important as you can imagine. Overall, I'm just hoping this video makes people THINK before just using something at random since most tips are "use [insert mixing tool] for no specific reason whatsoever, just because" - I hope I've outlined good reasons why in this video, but perhaps I will revisit this idea in a future video. Thanks for watching!!

@@5piece Hey this comment may revive this old post and push the "algorithm" I agree with your comments. For me, in general, I believe the PRO Q3 is way more useful because, using good ingredients, most often I don't need the envelope in the ProMB, just with the "automatic" envelope on the ProQ3. This last one, I use when some bad ingredients I can't change (like try and mix the best something badly recorded live).... or to try and get to a special sound design. Subscribed 👍
