Future MB

Transcend Frequencies, Transform Dynamics, Mixing For The Future.

Future MB is the ultimate time and frequency domain multiband dynamic processor. It delivers simultaneous control over dynamics and frequency content through three processing stages per band. Delta Matrix technology allows routing gain deltas between bands, reshaping dynamics with previously unimaginable freedom. These features give full power to mix for the future.

Control Bands As You Like

Target Only What Matters

Future MB abandons the rigid logic of traditional crossovers. Instead of slicing the entire spectrum to process a specific range, it allows up to six independent dynamic bands exactly where the audio needs it.

Treat bands as isolated processing zones to address local issues without affecting the rest of the signal, or snap them together to form a classic continuous crossover network. Variable slopes from 6 dB/oct to 48 dB/oct determine how bands blend or separate from the mix.

Pristine Phase Response

Future MB offers three phase modes: Minimum Phase, Linear Phase, and Liquid Phase.

Linear Phase ensures pure sound with zero phase distortion. Minimum Phase provides the lowest latency with classic phase characteristics. Liquid Phase applies phase shifts only when gain changes, delivering zero-latency signal with no pre-ringing. Transients stay sharp and the mix remains clean.

Every Dimension of Dynamics, Under Your Command

Future MB places a complete dynamic processing suite in every frequency band. It integrates three independent, switchable processing stages: Gate, Upward/Spike, and Compressor/Ducking. This architecture reshapes the envelope of sound from the ground up.

Gate tightens tails, Compressor glues peaks, and Upward brings life to low-level detail. Dual-threshold Upward targets exact dynamic ranges, lifting ambience without raising the noise floor or exaggerating transients. Activate the stages needed to build the desired dynamic behavior.

• Compressor: Adaptive Envelope Algorithm accommodates slow and fast settings for subtle leveling or aggressive peak control. Remains transparent even at extreme settings.

• Ducking: Extreme compression for pumping grooves and modern over-compressed sounds.

• Upward: Dual-threshold design boosts quiet musical details without raising the noise floor. Enhances vocals, snare ghost notes, and subtle ambience.

• Spike: Upward Expansion increases attack for drums and impact for vocals. Can be combined with Compressor for push-pull transient control.

• Gate: Hilbert Envelope Detector ensures smooth open and close behavior. Independent sidechain control delivers clean silence and preserves transients.

Time and Frequency, Unified

Spectral Mode blends time and frequency processing. In Compressor stage, it tames resonances without crushing the band. In Upward stage, it lifts spectral dips, revealing hidden harmonic richness. The SPEC slider balances resonance suppression and broadband glue for full, smooth, expressive sound.

From Subtle to Extreme: Smoothly Morph Your Character

Each band has three dynamic styles: Clean for transparent control, Glue for analog-style cohesion, and OTT for aggressive compression. Styles can be morphed in real time to achieve the exact character required.

Delta Matrix: Things Will Be Changed Forever

Delta Matrix allows gain delta of one band to modulate other bands positively or inversely. Energy is repurposed instead of lost. This expands creative options in multiband dynamics.

• Reinforce warmth of a kick drum body using its attack
• Convert harsh vocal sibilance into harmonic presence
• Redirect low-end boom to improve mid-range clarity
• Compress muddy frequencies and inversely boost fundamentals

• Supports L/R and M/S modes with adjustable stereo linking. Internal, External, or Free Mode can be selected for sidechain source.

• Priority EQ separates detection from the audio path. Narrow bands are not required to fix specific frequencies, avoiding phase issues or thin sound. Broad bands remain natural while targeting precise triggers.

• Auto-Gain uses ITU 1770 loudness matching to analyze perceived loudness in real time. Maintains consistent levels even with aggressive processing, ensuring accurate perception of tone and dynamics.

• Modern preset browser allows instant filtering with tags and quick access to favorites. Save, locate, and recall settings quickly and efficiently.
