....And yes, 9 bands gives a more consistent sound in terms sound collor....
This is really a very important statement, because this time it is a real traditional broadcast processing expert who share this opinion.
We had and still have this discussion/disagreement/controversy here how many bands are worth to use.
Many traditional users have stated that more than 7 bands would make things inescapable worse.
So, yes the new multiband (with 9 bands !) is much better than the old (with 10 bands).
But IMO a further reduction of maximal bands would be a fatal decision.
So 9 bands for the MB are ok.
But why not 10 bands as an option if Hans can find a way to fit it in the GUI ?
It could be useful to control certain aggressive hihat and cymbal sounds with a very narrow band without negative impact to other instruments and vocals in the 10-12 KHz range.
