Multiband Compression 101: Beginner's Guide

Find out what multiband compression is, get tips on how to choose different multiband compressors for different purposes – and learn some practical ways to use it in your mixing and mastering sessions.

Drew Lavyne Mastering Engineer

Red Hot Chili Peppers, The White Stripes, Moby

“The Linear Phase Compressor is one of those rare magical tools that make a mix sound better just by being turned on. The mastering presets will help you get your mix to a place where good turns into great. The ability to define which frequencies get compressed has made this plugin an indispensable part of my mastering toolset.”

Shawn Everett Mixing Engineer, Producer

Alabama Shakes, The War on Drugs, Julian Casablancas, Grizzly Bear

“This plugin is pretty much the secret to everything I've ever worked on, used in tandem with the PAZ Analyzer. My ability to violently solo frequency regions and work inside of the areas of the sonic rainbow totally changed my sonic worldview. I do use it frequently as a multiband compressor on my mix buss, but its frequency range solo function is something I use 3 hours a day.”

David Wrench Mixing, Recording Engineer, Producer

Frank Ocean, The xx, Caribou, FKA Twigs

“I always have a LinMB across my mix. It allows me to really sculpt the sound and make a mix exciting without it getting harsh or boomy.”

Phil Greiss Producer, Songwriter, Musician, Mixer

J. Balvin, Jason Derulo, David Guetta, Nicki Minaj

“The Lin MB is a powerful ‘correction tool’ when it comes to dealing with poorly recorded material. Set all 5 thresholds according to the peak displays during a bad-sounding part of the recording, and without touching any of the thresholds, lower the global slider for range until the signal transforms into a more balanced version of itself. Magic!”

Ilana Lorraine Singer, Songwriter

“I use the Linear Phase Multiband on the master buss. which instantly makes my music sound more together, glued and like a record to give me a preview of what the production could sound like.”

Marta Salogni Producer, Mixer, Recording Engineer

Björk, Bon Iver, Holly Herndon

“With Linear Phase Multiband Compressor, I’m able to create a cohesive sonic identity without sacrificing the dynamic character of the journey I’m trying to convey.”
