Frequency band settings
: Adjusted directly in the graphical display. Simply click on the dividing lines to shift the levels.
Bass/Mid/High
: Regulates the degree of compression for each frequency band.
Limiter
: MultiMax contains a limiter that harmonizes levels, e.g. higher levels are automatically reduced, and
quiet passages remain unaffected.
Presets
Two further special functions can be called up by using the presets in MultiMax.
Dynamic expander
: Too high compression will result in audible noise (usually defined as a pumping sound). Radio
recordings in particular are recorded with very high compression rates to increase the perceived volume.
Unfortunately, compression reduces the dynamics (interval between the quietest and loudest part). The
expander enhances the dynamics of the recording.
Cassette NR-B decoder
: Samplitude Music Studio 15 simulates decoding of Dolby B + C noise suppression when a Dolby
player is not available. Cassettes recorded with Dolby B or C sound more muffled and slurry if played
back without corresponding Dolby.
Noise gate
: This cleaning function entirely suppresses noise below a certain noise level. This lets you create, for
example, song transitions that are entirely noise-free.
Leveler
: This function brings the entire material up to a uniform volume automatically. The volume control handle
is omitted. Larger volume differences can therefore be adapted within a song. To balance volume
differences between different songs, you can also use the "Volume adjustment" function in the effects
menu.
De-esser
: These special presets remove overemphasized "s" sounds in speech recordings.
Tip: The limiter can also be used independently of the MultiMax.
