Sidechain the lows, mids, and highs of any sound independently for maximum creative and mixing control.
The Multiband Sidechain Compressor was made for one simple reason: to allow you to sidechain the lows, mids and highs separately for better and cleaner pumping effects.
The idea of using instrument racks in Ableton Live is simple, but it makes a massive difference in your workflow and productivity. The racks can be as simple or as complex as you want them to be and open up a world of production and mixing options.
It's not just convenient to have clearly labelled knobs with all the kick drum mixing and editing options that the Multiband Sidechain Compressor has. The plugins and settings connected to these knobs have been set and refined based on years of mixing and production experience to the point where it will make a huge difference in your productions.
Sidechaining in Ableton Live is pretty simple to do. But what if you wanted to sidechain the low frequencies differently than the high frequencies? What if you want the mids to have a stronger pumping effect but want to be more subtle with the lows? That's when things get a little hard to do.
How do you even split frequencies in Ableton Live and then apply separate sidechaining to them? It sounds really complicated, and it kind of is. There is no clear way for you to do this in Ableton Live.
With the Multiband Sidechain Compressor rack you can quickly and easily sidechain the low, mid and high frequencies of your mix independently of one another. It gives you maximum control while helping you to keep the low end of your mix clean and focused.
Simply choose the trigger sound for each of the frequency bands and you're good to go. Each macro knob is connected to expertly crafted settings designed to work in any track you're working on.
