Hence the magic is in the mid range.

So, If I understand well, it´s all about compressing just the midrange (choosing a band for instance in Fabfilter Pro MB?) and having the sidechain selected as just that specific frequency range, letting the top and bottom bands "move" in their own dynamics?

Thanks! Can you show how you do this with only plugins?. Best Mathias

Use mid band of a multi-band compressor

Hi master Luca, can you show how you do this routing only with plugins?

Any compressor with externally keyed side chain input + your stock EQ, or Any compressor with LP and HP integrated in their sidechain will do the job

This is just the same as Multiband compression on the master bus in the box right? 😂

@WorstViktorEU 8 ай бұрын

no. although you could do something similar with paralel multiband compression focussing on the midrange. (leapwing dynone for example)

@Breakbeat90s 7 ай бұрын

@@WorstViktorEU Wrong, multiband compression only on the mid band is technically the same because the HP and LP are just the same as crossovers in the multiband. It would've been wrong if he said dynamic eq since they use single bands (e.g. bell filters) to filter out the content of the compression

@WorstViktorEU 7 ай бұрын

@@Breakbeat90s Then you'd have a fully wet signal and no retaining of the original signal. He's blending in the heavily saturated/compressed mid range with the original midrange of the track.
