Bands 1 and 6 are special: Their Filter Curves can be edited in three different modes.
The four editing points in the graphic have different functions in each mode.
Peaking: Here the effect curve is brought closer to the working point (which
represents the peak of the curve) from both sides simultaneously.
Shelving (Basic setting): Here the working point displays the beginning of the
filter curve. From this point on there is a gentle increase or decrease in the
frequency.
High or Low Pass:In Band 1 the working point displays the frequency which is
filtered out of particularly high or low frequencies.
Multimax
MultiMax is a compressor with three independent frequency bands. The dynamics
are edited separately for each band.
The advantage of a multi-band compressor versus a "normal" compressor is that the
"pumping" tendency and other unwanted side effects are dramatically reduced while
editing the dynamics. For instance, it can prevent a bass top peak from "reducing" the
entire signal.
Multi-band technology also lets you specifically edit individual frequency ranges.
Link: When this function is activated, when one slider is moved, all others change in
the same proportion. However, the way the dynamics are edited is not affected.
HiQ: When the "HiQ" (High Quality) setting is activated, more precise algorithms are
used, which raises the processor load. It is recommendable to turn on this setting
before exporting.
Frequency band settings: Frequency band settings takes place directly in the graphic.
Simply click on the separator lines and move them.
Lo/Mid/Hi: These knobs control the degree of compression for each frequency band.
Presets: In Multimax you can open various presets for various user cases. For
example:
Cassette NR-B decoder: Samplitude Music Studio 2013 simulates decoding of Dolby
B + C noise suppression if a Dolby player is not available. Cassettes recorded with
Dolby B or C sound more muffled and slurry if played back without corresponding
Dolby.
