New Frequent tutorial? Yes please.

[@Trentcast]

Dude wtf this is the multiband dynamics tutorial I’ve needed for so long

[@yurikalashnikov2460]

Duck yeah man! Meanwhile, I’m over here knocking 2-3 dB off with a 2:1 on this vintage emulation wondering how people get these kinds of sounds. That was awesome.

[@blake8666]

Willing to bet Ableton see's this and updates the UI of Multiband compression. (hopefully)

[@Trentcast]

Pfffft they need to address the PDC issues before anything else - and they’re like 10 years behind on that.

[@user-br9th4ei6v]

@@Trentcast ableton is legit borderline unusable because of problems with PDC. I don't know how people live with it in 2023.

[@brussbenner957]

The day ableton changes the problems with PDC, UI of their plugins, and user friendliness of workspaces is the day nobody will afford to buy this DAW. And I'm hoping I'm quite wrong on it, but surely this will happen.

[@ThisisAppleBacon]

If you hold ALT You can move upper and lower thresholds at the same time in ableton multiband, same works for changing the ratio

[@ThisisAppleBacon]

ALT+shift does something to each of the three bands too

[@RandiOW]

Based freq very helpful

[@kriss12loverap]

U have earned a sub you give me rocket powered sound vibes but more up to date with plugins

[@rebirth4119]

Yeah I believe the ableton multiband compressor uses butterworth filter cutoffs for the frequency split(24db/octave). I could be wrong but I think the overlap between the bands(since its gradual) is what screws up the phase. So yeah for those who use it for mastering- PLS DON'T.

[@MrStibaer]

great video with a realistic showcase, keep it up! subscribed!

[@DJazium]

dude this is such a sick tutorial

[@majesticbubfish9633]

really great examples of how to use fuse. it also sounded like you were beating the sh*t out of a micro wave at 16:55 lmao

[@geraldgoodiii6993]

I approve of these sounds

[@omnomnom504]

It's $50 which is totally reasonable. Not only is the UI easier/faster, but it allows for more frequency bands than multiband dynamics.

[@BerryFruit]

YOOOOOOOO new Frequent upload!!!!!

[@jona8659]

i was hoping you'd do this, hehehe, lovely

[@e-smogplayground]

[@eputty_audio]

Quality as always

[@DashGlitch]

Is that a CPU meter or metronome XD crazy stuff man, wow

[@side_quest]

awesome overview. thx bro

[@cloud_d]

fire tutorial as always!

[@rhysmop]

love it!

[@Alckemy]

Thanks brotha!

[@jfklmk13447]

Quality content! Also 50$ is very decent for this plugin!

[@baronvonbeandip]

6 Bands?
I'm basically sold. Are those atk/release knobs for all or one-by-one?
EDIT: Nevermind, the adaptive tilt does exactly what I need.

[@theshillpill6937]

If you already own pro-mb, is there any reason to get this?

[@KnotLõ-ADSR]

If I wanted to learn everything compression related. Could I just read the ableton manual?? Or is there an easier way?

[@Frequentaudio]

If you just youtube "compression explained" there's honestly some really good breakdowns. Once you know what the knobs do its more just feeling it out than anything. Feel free to hmu for a lesson if you want :)

[@jona8659]

kush after hours has good vids on it

[@partlysimpson5154]

All I can hear is digital noise :(

[@rebirth4119]

I'm actually curious how you would compare the Fuse Compressor vs Multiband x6 by Devious Machines. I know the Devious Machine's compressor also showcases upwards/downwards compression but I wonder how they differ a lot in workflow.

[@vVGistopVv]

actually multiband x6 has no upwards compression, it is a common feature request though!

[@rebirth4119]

@@vVGistopVv my bad xD thank you for pointing that out. I was completely mistaken.

[@Aqua_1014]

hell yea

[@ahw5hcgfyj]

what skin are you using?

[@bikepedal11]

unless i missed something, it seems like fuse can't do any type of expansion. despite the low pole crossovers and lack of bands, multiband dynamics has a pretty big edge over fuse there

You are one cool mother fucker bro. Keep the content coming!
