What are the most important concepts in multiband processing?

Frequency bands: Divisions of the audio spectrum into separate ranges (e.g. sub, low-mid, mid, high-mid, high). Each band can be processed independently. Crossover: The frequency point where one band ends and another begins. Bands are split using crossover filters with a 24 dB/octave slope. Multiband processing: Applying different processing to different frequency ranges of the same signal. Traditionally done with compression, saturation, EQ, or other effects. Linear phase: A processing mode that preserves phase relationships across the spectrum. Adds latency but ensures perfect reconstruction when recombining bands.

How does dime [mb] compare to traditional multiband processors?

dime [mb] is a multiband processor that lets you load your own VST3/AU plugins on each frequency band. Unlike multiband compressors or EQs with limited built-in processing options, you can use any plugin from your collection: compression, saturation, reverb, delay, or whatever you need, on each band independently. Create up to 5 bands with adjustable crossovers, and load up to 4 plugins per band. Choose between zero-latency or linear-phase modes to suit your workflow. Our algorithm recombines the bands with zero artifacts.

Can dime [mb] help me improve the quality of my drum sounds?

Yes, dime [mb] is excellent for drum processing. Split your drum bus into bands — for example, sub, body, and snap. Then, apply different effects to each band. Compress the low-end for punchier kicks, add saturation to the mids for warmth and character, and keep the highs clean for crisp cymbals and hi-hats. You can also use it on individual tracks: tame harsh sibilance on vocals by processing only the high band, or add weight to a thin synth by saturating the low-mids. The flexibility of multiband processing with your own plugins makes dime [mb] a powerful tool for any mix.

Does dime [mb] have built-in effects?

dime [mb] doesn't include built-in processors. It's designed to host your own plugins. Load your favorite saturation, compression, EQ, or any VST3/AU effect on each band. This gives you complete creative freedom and lets you use the tools you already know and love.

Can dime [mb] be used for mastering?

Yes. dime [mb] offers a linear phase mode that preserves phase coherence across the spectrum when splitting and recombining bands. This makes it well suited for mastering, where phase integrity is critical.
