Blue Cat MB-5 Dynamix

Blue Cat’s MB-5 Dynamix is an extremely versatile all-in-one multiband dynamics processor. Whether you’re looking to compress, limit, gate, expand, or shape waves, this plug-in has you covered. It allows you to process up to 5 bands separately, combining the unique dynamics processing capabilities of Blue Cat’s Dynamics plug-in into a streamlined interface.

The MB-5 Dynamix features unique envelope detection capabilities, allowing one band to trigger dynamics responses on others (internal side-chain), offering a wide range of possibilities for dynamic control. Advanced stereo processing, including mid/side capabilities, provides even greater flexibility. Additionally, the integrated brick wall limiter and clipper ensure that the output remains protected, giving you full control over every aspect of the dynamics response.

Visual feedback is a key feature of this plug-in, with real-time monitoring of the spectrum, input/output levels, compression ratio, dynamics response, and more. The user-friendly interface is designed to streamline your workflow, while inter-band controls such as copy/paste and link functions help you manage complex dynamic treatments with ease.

For those who need more advanced side-chaining features, Blue Cat’s MB-5 Dynamix offers powerful MIDI and automation output capabilities, allowing you to control other plug-ins with the dynamics processor’s output, enabling everything from simple side-chain compression to more sophisticated signal-dependent effects.

Key Features:

• Multiband Dynamics Processor: Combines compression, gating, limiting, expanding, and waveshaping across up to 5 bands.
• Cross-band Envelope Routing: One band can trigger the dynamics response in another, offering advanced side-chaining effects.
• Stereo & Mid-Side Processing: Supports both stereo and mid/side modes with independent control over each channel.
• Post Brickwall Limiter: Integrated limiter and clipper protect the output for complete dynamics control.
• Comprehensive Visual Feedback: Monitor spectrum, in/out levels, compression ratios, and dynamics response in real-time.
• Easy Copy/Paste & Link Functions: Quickly transfer settings between bands to streamline workflow.
• Advanced Side-Chaining: Use the plug-in’s output to control other plug-ins for a wide range of side-chaining effects.
• No Latency Processing: Ensures smooth performance without delay.
