Revision history for MultiBand
Additions:
MultiBand looks more complex than it is; it's actually just three separate compressors, each assignable to a particular frequency band

According to [[MikeAudet Mike Audet]], //"The Multiband Compressor is a combination of the X-Over and the Paris Compressor, stitched together in EDS assembler in both stereo and mono versions. It is DSP heavy, but it is still light enough to run it before an instance of NoLimit for some serious level boosting. You need to hear what this thing does to the low end of a boomy acoustic guitar!"//
MultiBand contains three separate compressors, each assignable to a frequency band
1 = Low
2 = Mid
3 = High
Each compressor's controls are the same (using band 1 as an example):
**Threshold1:** unlike hardware compressors, NoLimit gives control over the ratio of dry/effected signal, permitting such uses as the blending of a compressed kick signal beneath the original uncompressed version to "stiffen" the kick without robbing dynamics.
**Ratio1:** Sets the ratio of this band of the compressor
**Attack1:** Sets the attack time of this band of the compressor
**Release1:** Sets the release time of this band of the compressor
**CompOut1:** - Sets the final output level of this band of the compressor
**Solo:** solos this particular band for auditioning
There are three additional controls:
**Low-to-mid x:** sets the crossover frequency between band 1 and 2
**Mid-to-high x:** sets the crossover frequency between band 2 and 3
**Lookahead:** - increases the overall amount of time "in advance" the plugin can calculate by introducing a slight delay of the signal, effectively "looking ahead" of the playback. Use longer values - 0.025 or greater - for most precise compression and to avoid distortion (if you're using this on the master bus, the delay will make no difference)
