McDSP 6034 Ultimate Multi-Band HD V7 - Compression, Expansion and More (VST/AU/AAX DSP)

The 6034 Ultimate Multi-band is a flexible multi-band dynamics processor. It offers all the award winning compression, expansion, and gating modules from the highly acclaimed 6050 Ultimate Channel Strip plug-in, in a four band crossover network.
Just like the 6050 modules, the 6034 Ultimate Multi-band modules can be swapped on the fly for quick auditioning while retaining relative settings. The crossover filter slopes can be configured as 6, 12, or 24 dB/Oct. Metering includes gain reduction and output levels on all crossover bands, as well as main input and output levels.

Features:

• Over 25 EQ, compressor, gate, expander, saturator, and filter modules
• Easy drag and drop, on the fly module auditioning
• Side chain support
• Input and output control
• Double precision processing
• Zero latency
• Collection of presets from award winning mix engineers
• Mono and stereo versions

Multi-band Expansion
Using the FRGX module, each band can apply downward or upwards expansion. The downwards expansion can reduce some room tone, or just bring a different dynamic (pun intended) to the band. Upwards expansion can allow a give band to jump out a bit more in the mix, but only when strong signal levels are not present.

Drums
Get the kick drum on the lowest band, mix up the snare and toms with the two middle bands, and deal with cymbals in the highest band. There are certainly other ways to combine drum kit elements using a four-band crossover like the one in the 6034, and experimentation is encouraged.

Vocals
The 6034 has the unique ability to let the user swap (on the fly!) a wide variety of compression and expansion modules in the search of the perfect sound. The various slopes available form the crossover filters (6, 12, and 24 dB/Oct) can also be useful in locating just the right crossover points when mixing the vocal.
