Hello!

I love this kind of multiband compressor because it's so clean and easy to use :)
Unfortunately, it's 32Bit so I can not use it in Reason. :puf_unhappy:

And I wonder if there is an option out there that is 64bit?

Waves has sale on a multiband compressor at the moment; 29$ instead of 149$:

For mixing & junk I'll just stick to the stock stuff since it works for my personal needs buuuuut zebra 2 and omnisphere getting out of reiwre and emi, I am 100% behind this decision as those are big packs of built in libraries.

Another swedish company is klevgränd and they have a good Multiband compressor called Pressit https://klevgrand.se/products/

Else you have Fabfilters stuff

I would rather find something that is as good as Ableton's Multiband Dynamics capable of:
- upwards and downwards compression
- upwards and downwards expansion

Including soft knee, soft clipping and make it peak or rms dependent. The Ableton Multiband Dynamics device is the best compressor/expander I am aware of. If someone finds a cheap VST counterpart, please share!

Damn im looking and looking but cant seem to find one in my taste :( i just want it like the one in Wavalab, simple and not cluttered...

I did find this one and tried J Bridge to convert it to 64bit but i just get a message that says it cannot do this because it "belongs to Cakewalk" DAMN! :(

Try J Bridge. Google it.

Download that and you can use that to convert 32 bit vst's to 64 bit. It's about £15-ish mind.

I would grab the Waves C4 or C6.

Interestingly however, is the stock MB Compressor in Studio One is every bit as good as a Waves MB Comp.

I've used all 3 in question. A lot.

MB Comps are good to have on hand.

I'm glad to see Reason users expanding their horizons.

The Reaper plugs, which I've used extensively, are completely high quality and are excellent plugs.

The next 3 months are going to blow the average Reason users mind, and it's about darn time they all got hip to what's out there

Steve Duda made his OTT as the perfect Ableton version in mind .

I still haven't found any multiband compressor that is as good as that one i Wavelab :(

I would pay 100$ to anyone that can "unlock" that plugin so i can use it i Reason or if someone could "re-make it" as a Re!

Because i have tried to load it (MultiBand Compressor.dll) in Reason using Jbridge but i only get a dialog box saying that "i need Wavelab to use this plugin"

I honestly think that if you invest in a bundle (eg Waves or Fabfilter) its a lifetime investment . The fabfilter multiband is great ( but complex) . Upward, downward , sidechain etc etc and tis easy on DSP . I perfectly understand not being able to afford a bundle though .. you realy want to be sure your gonna use everything that comes with that bundle to justify it!

One of the tricks I sometimes use in Reason: parallel channels. This way you can set different EQ channels with different types of compression. It can do things which goes way beyond what a multiband compressor is capable of.

Why not try the multiband compression presets for the master section?

Been there and done that, i have tried a lot of different multiband compressors etc, but i cant get it to sound as good as that one from Wavelab/Steinberg :puf_unhappy:


It's so easy to use and get good results.

I have it as DLL file but like i said, it got some code inside it that prevents it to be loaded up in another DAW ("You need Wavelab to use this plugin")

But like i said before i would pay 100$ to anyone that can "unlock" that plugin so i can use it i Reason if someone can do stuff like that?
