My name is Sam Smyers and in this video I go over how to use the multiband dynamics plugin that is a stock plugin in Ableton Live. This plugin uses upward and downward compression AND expansion, and I go over all of those types of processing in this video!

Wow, Sidechaining using multiband dynamics as opposed to normal compressor gives much more flexibility! Nice one 😁
Thanks! 😀
This is cool
Ableton's normal compressor has also possibility to sidechain only certain frequencies. Just click EQ on the right side of Sidechain and choose the band.
Or just use ShaperBox.
Very interesting tool, so much you can do with downward expansion, changing the character of samples, probably better to use than. an eq
Dude this is an amazing video. I never had an idea of how useful this is and how many headaches I could've avoided if I had learnt how to use this plug-in sooner, cheers mate.
Glad it helped!
This absolutely just blew my mind. Thank you!
Very well done ! Congratulations .
Nice, I was looking for exactly this
Thanks for your straightforward videos on sound design tools and the recreation of patches!
Best explanation I heard yet. Gold video I under utilize this so much; you can really get some groove out of loops I never even thought of
Glad it was helpful!
Best explanation of the device I could find, thank you!
Amazing! Thank you for this 🙏🙏 I didn't know most of this and would have needed it years ago 😱 Also perfectly explained 👌
Thank you so much Sam! This made it click for me!
Best tutorial on this plugin! Kudos and thanks so much!
Best video I've seen on this topic yet!
wow thanks!
Nicely explained. Thanks.
great tute thnx!
Using a multiband compressor is super nice since it allows me to make my music, which is sample based and very east coast, sound much cleaner by targeting particular frequencies and compressing different bands. It's one of the very few go-to's i have, even if it's only very subtle usage
Spot on!
One of the best video explaining this matter on YT.
I will use side chain option in my next project. Thanks
Awesome, thank you!
thanks again Sam! super interesting! and indeed explained really good and clear.
My pleasure!
Thanks for this!! Great video :)
Another very helpful video!!
Excellent video with a lot of useful information with good examples.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Liked and subbed Sam, blessed us with this video
Happy to find your channel , great lesson thanks
Glad you enjoy it!
Thank you !!!!!
thanks, is the best video about this plugin
thank you!
Big thanks!!
thanks man
What a great explanation!!!
Glad you think so!
first time i’ve actually heard the difference between downward and upward compression - better late than never!
amazing way to teach man. keep that way same. really helpfull
Thanks, will do!
Thanks❗️Great explanation 👍
Glad it was helpful!
Amazing explanation!

Thank You!
very helpful thankyou
Glad it helped!
GRACIASSSSSS 🖤
Thnks!
yea!
Good vid
Great video, like always!!
Would love to see a tut on the fabfilter PO-MB
Coming soon!
thank you!
No worries!
thanks for sharing
You bet!
great video- multiband dynamics was the last plug-in I needed to understand and you did really well explaining it😇
ur a boss
I have a question! I'm trying to reduce bleed from cymbals in my snare by applying downward expansion in the high range, around 2.5khz and up. The problem is that I'd like to trigger the threshold using a DIFFERENT range in the snare, somewhere in the midrange. I've tried setting up a "sidechain only" track where I solo that frequency in the snare and use that in the side chain, but the threshold in the multi band dynamics is not being met as it still only looks at those specific frequencies from the side chain. Is there anyway to trigger the threshold for the top end from a different frequency range?
THANKS for the lesson! The expander seems like a good tool for re-energizing vocals that may have been printed with too much compression. Thoughts?
Yes that would work too!
Why haven't ANY of the tutorials I've watched on compression mentioned the multiband dynamic compressor?? Seems like it has a lot more utility than the standard Ableton compressors when it comes to controlling what is side chained. I find the visualization on the multiband dynamics to be so much better but maybe that's just me.
I think it scares people away 😂
How would you compare this to Fabfilters MB?
i prefer the Fabfilter MB if you can get it!
How do I type in the ratio amount? whenever I do it, I always get 1:0.50
I think the only options to change the ratios in ableton MBdynamics are to drag either the blue numerical display up and down, or the sliders left and right.
totally get the theory behind the band-focused sidechain compression; but I kind of found that:
1) in your particular example the before sounded better imho : ))
2) sidechain compression kind of "typically" sucks ALL the air out, on purpose.
So I'd be hesitant to use this technique, but still, keen to experiment - thanks!
This is the most confusing compressor in the history of mankind. Thank you for the explanation.
Glad it was helpful!
4:32 I have no idea where you got this information but it's false. Peak and RMS are completely different ways to compress audio, it has absolutely nothing to do with speed. Peak compression is only compressing the peaks, the short term LUFS, and RMS compresses the overall volume of the input which is the integrated LUFS. As expected, RMS is used for smoother balancing and Peak is for only squashing the harsher transients.
