But anyone who has looked at the pictures knows that you only see 6 bands on the parametric graph. The normal 元 MultiMaximizer has 5 bands of limiting. Compared to other Waves processors, like the C4, C6, or Linear Phase Multiband, one would expect the controls to work a little differently, but once one grasps this fundamental difference, one can start coaxing wonderful sounds out of this brick-wall multi-band limiter.

Lower the priority and it begins attenuating the sound more. The priority, then, is for the original unattenuated sound. The key to #2 above is that the higher you set the 'priority' for a given band, the less limiting it performs on that band. Difficult to figure out, hard to wrap your head around how it works. There are some great deals out there, and one of them MAY be the Waves 元-16 MultiMaximizer, which you can get for $250 right now, a substantial savings (about $500 off normal price) At this price I start becoming interested, and that presents a problem: before I would buy this thing, I've got to know how it works, and whether it would benefit me.įirst of all, I own the 元 MultiMaximizer, and I know two basic things about it:ġ) It's an amazing processor which I use on nearly everything that needs limiting.Ģ) It's very counter-intuitive to learn to use.
