Hii I clicked the button in ST to parallel the two multibands and started having fun. Very surprised (positively) with the results. The preset is consistently eating everything I'm throwing at it. Dynamic, breathing, punchy and open sound. The ratio between MB's is set at 30/70. First one adaptive (slower by design although it responds to fast songs), second one very fast. Play with the ratio and density on both MB's to find your own glue. Loudness Integrated (from ~45min measurement on music only): around -8db LUFS Loudness range: 2.5-3dB. Can grow a bit bigger with more classic mixes. Sudden drops in volume create desired dynamics, and if persistent - AGC reacts. Happy with the results! Avg. Dynamics: 8.5LU WEB, 10.50 v1.0.8 - reduced input in clipper by 6dB, it's cleaner - slightly more compressed highs for equal coverage between genres - color tweaks

Decent settings I will say it is like 5 to 8 db to loud just at clipping level
You are quite right. It does sound better with MB2 output lowered by around 6db! ![]() Will post with another fixes soon! |

Been testing a different balance and config of both MB's for two weeks and been very satisfied with results. Posting for those interested. |

These are amazing! Thanks for sharing. You clearly know what you're doing. 1.0.8 is my fave. |

Added one more variant of 1.0.8, with Wide Band compression. Goal: reduce clipper action, and glue things together. You be the judge if it served the preset well! Been listening to multiple genres on it for few days now and it's less "in the face", and a bit more predictable in what it produces. The downside is about 2db less in loudness. Worked on some tweaks here and there to color the results better too. |
