So I want the "volume" level of all audio tracks to be constant, this I was getting from OTSAV with their compressor/limiter and AGC. For any other applications like Spotify, youtube e.t.c audio I can get the Audio Enhancer from Breakaway, it's cheap at only $36.
The main reason I am seeking a Multiband processor is only for Otsav tracks, to keep all frequencies bass, mids and highs levels constant.
So I don't need to add any coloring to the sound I would prefer the audio to be untouched if possible. If that should not be possible then ok choosing a preset which will add color to enhance the audio even more would be ok.
That's also a perfectly good option. Both Breakaway Audio Enhancer and Stereo Tool have multiband compressors that color and change the signature of the sound. I used BAE for years before finding ST. I'm really not experienced enough in multibands to know if it's possible to be truly transparent. I was under the impression that coloring is just inherent to how the multiband works. I'm still learning, and very slowly.
I believe you should find a preset that works best for the music you're listening to in OTS first, with unlicensed features disabled. Then tweak it with the Equalizer and save it as a custom preset. Whereas for video/tv/movies, you might want a different preset. Even if using Breakaway Audio Enhancer, you'll likely want to choose a different preset for different uses.
I personally just use BreakawayOne while playing games or other visual media, and Stereo Tool as a plugin within BreakawayOne while listening to audio only media. This is because of BreakawayOne's capability to output to multiple devices, and because Stereo Tool sounds best with a large buffer (which causes enough audio delay at 4096 to impact my ability to enjoy videos).
