What it is
McDSP 6034 Ultimate Multi-band is a four-band dynamics processor built around compression, expansion and gating modules derived from the company's 6050 Channel Strip. It has a configurable crossover with selectable 6, 12 or 24 dB/octave slopes and real-time metering on every band. It also models analog saturation, so it can add some weight as well as control dynamics.
Who it's for
Mixing and mastering engineers who need surgical multi-band dynamics control on buses, vocals or full mixes. Producers who want one tool for de-essing, low-end control and glue will find it useful.
Key features
- Swappable dynamics modules let you audition different processing styles quickly
- Double-precision processing keeps latency ultra-low
- Mono and stereo versions are included in AAX Native, AU and VST formats
- Factory presets from engineers such as Mike Dean and David Bottrill give you starting points
