MultiDynamics is a versatile multi-band dynamics plugin that offers powerful capabilities for mastering, track processing, sound design, and noise reduction. Each of MultiDynamics' six bands can be individually configured for compression or expansion/gating, providing precise control over your audio. Whether you're looking to enhance the clarity of individual tracks or achieve a polished, professional sound during mastering, MultiDynamics is a valuable tool in any audio engineer's arsenal.

Multiband dynamics processing combines the techniques of equalization and dynamics processing, but is more powerful than a static equalizer or a single band dynamics processor. Below are some of the possible ways to use MultiDynamics:

• Frequency-Dependent Dynamics: A simple application of multiband dynamics is to apply compression or expansion to a specific frequency range. For example, you may want to compress the vocals in a mix without affecting the low frequencies (bass, kick drum) or high frequencies (snare, cymbals). This is easily done by creating a midrange band to cover the vocal range and setting it to compress.
• Level-Dependent EQ: You can also think of multiband dynamics as providing EQ which is dependent on the level of the input sound. For example, you might want to brighten the sound of a high hat, but only when the drums are played softly. This can be accomplished by setting up a high frequency band that increases gain when the input is below threshold. This is more powerful than using a shelving EQ which will change the tonal balance at all levels equally.
• Noise Reduction: nother powerful use of MultiDynamics is noise reduction. This is accomplished using multiple gating bands where the thresholds are set just above the ambient noise level. MultiDynamics excels at de-noising and doesn't suffer from artifacts typical of FFT-based de-noisers.
• Ducking: You can use MultiDynamics to duck music behind narration so the foreground dialog stays intelligible when mixed with the background music. Using a multiband processor allows the music to be ducked only in the frequency ranges where there is dialog energy, which makes for a more transparent effect.

What's New in MultiDynamics 7:

• All new interface with dark theme.
• Now supports extensive sidechain capability. Each dynamics band can be driven from the input signal or an external sidechain input. You can also specify wide-band or band-filtered signal, or select either the input or external signal filtered by a separate sidechain EQ. Hence you can drive one frequency band based on the signal from another frequency band.
• New Learn feature automatically sets band thresholds to detected peak or RMS levels.
• A peak limiter has been added to the output processing.
• Input meters and an input gain control have been added.
• User selectable display ranges for dynamics gain and input levels. New metering section with options for peak, peak & RMS, RMS, and K-system meters.
• Realtime spectrum display with many options.

Highlights:

• Up to 6 independent bands
• Proprietary crossover filter network eliminates amplitude distortion between bands
• 6 dB/oct, 18 dB/oct, and 30 dB/oct crossover slopes
• Full featured compressor or expander/gate per band
• Clean and vintage compression modes
• Supports external sidechain input and sidechain EQ filter
• Adjustable knees and lookahead
• Zero latency operation when lookahead is off
• Latency compensation
• Per band bypass, solo and mute controls
• Comprehensive visualization of input levels and dynamic EQ response
• Learn function to automatically set band thresholds
• Realtime spectrum display
• Output peak limiter
• Level meters support Peak, Peak & RMS, RMS, and K-system
