FabFilter has also taken an EQ-type approach to multiband dynamics with an interface that looks a lot like your typical EQ. FabFilter have a great grasp on organization and have incorporated facets of their popular Pro-Q and Saturn to ease the learning curve.

If you try to display everything in one window, you’d essentially have a full screen plugin with too much going on.

Seeing that you have multiple compressors working on multiple bands, organization is key. That is one of the things I love about FabFilter, once you’ve learned one, the rest are very familiar. Upon opening Pro-MB you will see a very sleek interface that beckons back to FabFilter’s other plugins.

As with all FabFilter plugins, Pro-MB is available in almost every format including the ubiquitous AAX. Quick and painless… just the way it should be.

Authorization is a breeze as well, you simply copy over a code emailed to you, paste it into the window when instantiating the plugin in your DAW, then restarting the DAW. I still can’t understand how a plugin that is less than 10Mb can pack such a punch but I just assume sorcery is afoot.

Pro MB takes advantage of all of these innovations but with their own additions and twists. Then the digital world came along making this even easier by allowing more crossovers, control, and horsepower allowing its use to expand to even more useful proportions. Engineers had been using several pieces of equipment to accomplish this until one person came along and realized that one device can be created to accomplish this. Different zones of frequencies are divided by crossovers, then compressed accordingly to get the loudest and most balanced signal for radio or television. This concept has actually been around in different stages for some time in the broadcast world. Usually we try to cut these frequencies with EQ before we compress to account for this problem, but what if this isn’t enough. Your typical compressor works on a broad band across all frequencies, and can sometimes cause artifacts and unwanted tonal change due to the compressor being triggered by the most prominent frequency.

Some of this could possibly be due to lack of experience with the concept but once you take a look at the principles and applications, you will see that the tool is extremely powerful and in most cases, exactly what you are looking for. Multiband Compression seems to have this looming cloud over it for some engineers and seems to be used with much reserve. So far, FabFilter have proven an incredible track record with other plugins such as their Pro-Q, Pro-DS, and extremely fun to use, Saturn ( Review Here) so I set out to see if they can hit another home run with their latest multiband dynamics tool. Last review we took a look at HOFA IQ-EQ, which incorporated multiband dynamics, so why not keep the ball rolling with FabFilter’s latest creation, Pro-MB. A lot of big Plugin manufacturers are really starting to take the reigns of multiband dynamics.
