Waves C4 vs C6.. which do you use? I've been using C4 on my master bus for years and always get great results. I started using the C6 a month back more seriously and I noticed tracks are sounding even better with the C6:crazy: Not sure why, I use the same setting on both, A/B, the C6 usually sounds cleaner with less coloring of sound. The C4 I find is slightly tape/crunchier, would recommend for acoustic styles like rock/metal/jazz..
Also I tried FabFilters Pro-MB, tho it's very transparent, it doesn't make the sound thick/heavy enough like Waves.
What's your go to Multiband Compressor? |

| I have C4, it came with my Gold bundle, but I don't use it that often. Fabfilter Pro-MB is my go-to when I need multiband or (more often) frequency-specific compression on tracks or buses. I don't use a compressor on my master bus, but I finalize my tracks in Wavelab and I usually use the MB compressor in Ozone. |

| N\A, sounds like a bandaid problem to me, if you're mixing with it |

Yeah, I didn't want to post in this thread, since I thought the same thing.
For me, if you're compressing individual sounds (for example the main low bass), why would you use a multiband compressor on the master channel to compress the bass region?
But the reason I decided not to post was, my approach is "if it sounds good in the end, it's fine". There are many ways to get a good result. In the end all that matters is that it's 1. great music, with 2. great production. |
