FabFilter Pro-MB Multiband Dynamics Plug-In

Multiband compression and expansion are powerful tools, but notoriously difficult to set up and control. Enter FabFilter Pro-MB: making multiband dynamics processing intuitive yet powerful at the same time.

FabFilter Pro-MB introduces a unique Dynamic Phase processing mode. It has virtually the same frequency response as traditional multiband processing, but doesn't introduce latency or pre-ringing, and only introduces minor phase changes when the gain actually changes. Of course, we have also included an excellent Linear Phase mode and a traditional Minimum Phase mode.

The powerful combination of high quality processing, optimized workflow using the interactive multiband display and all the expert features you need, makes Pro-MB both a lifesaver and timesaver!

• Up to six processing bands, freely placed anywhere in the spectrum
• Bands can be easily snapped together to form a traditional crossover system
• Unique Dynamic Phase processing mode featuring zero latency, no static phase changes and no pre-ringing artifacts
• Excellent Linear Phase processing mode, eliminating audible artifacts when quickly changing crossover frequencies
• Minimum Phase processing mode
• Handles any form of dynamics processing, from highly transparent compression, limiting and expansion to pumping upward compression and punchy gating
• Fully customizable per band: threshold, range, attack, release, output gain, ratio, variable knee, lookahead (up to 20 ms), variable stereo linking, mid- or side-only processing, external side chain input, triggering on a separate frequency range
• Steepness of each crossover slope can be freely adjusted between 6 dB/oct and 48 dB/oct
• Intelligent, highly program- and frequency-dependent attack and release curves
• Global dry/wet mix from 0% to 200% to easily scale the total effect of the plug-in
• Unique interactive multiband display, designed for an optimal workflow
• Accurate and smooth real-time frequency analyzer with pre- and post-processing options and 'freeze' feature
