But, failing that, making it fit by means of selective multiband compression is better than having the limiter desperately trying to squeeze everything in, all at once.įrom a more sound design point of view.
If you want a natural, transparent sound, it’s better to get it right at the source, than trying to shape it in the master. Might add multiband compression before the limiter if there’s too much dynamic range in the low end (because that will make the higher frequencies pump if the Maximizer is pushed too hard), but for orchestral/hybrid, I find that unless you just need it REALLY loud (as in trailers, or “background listening”), a need for multiband compression might a warning sign that there are arrangement/mix problems. Rule of thumb (as least for traditional orchestra): It it doesn’t basically just sound the same, but louder, you’re overdoing it, or there might be mix issues.
I typically just use Streaming, and then I manually tweak the Maximizer until I get climaxes sufficiently loud and intense, but without boosting the quite parts too much.
