Compressor
The heart of the DBMAX is the most powerful dynamics tool you’ve ever heard:
 A five-band Compressor with adjustable slopes and cross-over frequencies. An advanced Look-ahead Delay can be used to reduce dynamic distortion and transient overshoots.
 You can easily change the DBMAX multiband structure from one to five bands.
 Take control over individual band parameters or adjust them in groups.

EQUALIZER
Properly used, multiband compression is often a more desirable form of EQ. With the DBMAX you can do both.
Use the multiband Parametric EQ to adjust the spectral content of your material and preserve or enhance its transparency and energy.

BRICKWALL LIMITER
Both the five-band and wide-band Limiters can be used simultaneously.
The five-band Limiter uses look-ahead delay, and each band may be engaged individually.
A Brickwalll Limiter at Insert 4 is a sample accurate system including distortion canceling look-ahead delay. If desired Soft Clipping may also be added.
50µs, 75µs or J17 emphasis can be used as a reference for final limiting. Afterwards the emphasis may even be removed individually on the analog and/or digital outputs. By removing emphasis after the limiting process, transmission lines using data compression perform better.

WIZARD
Based upon know-how from transmission engineers around the world, the Wizard will produce optimum settings for you.
 Answer a few simple questions, play your typical program material, and let the Wizard function take care of the rest. No matter if you're processing for high quality digital transmission or Internet audio, you're set in a matter of minutes. From this point, you can start building your own unique station identity by taking advantage of the more than 200 uncensored parameters inside the DBMax.
