01Overview

MCombMB processes audio through up to six independent bands, and each band can hold up to four filters that you arrange in series, in parallel, or in a mix of both. Each filter offers adjustable feedback with a band-pass option, and a limiter is included. Per-channel phase inversion can be used to shape stereo width. Most of these controls are reachable through the graphical editor, which MeldaProduction describes as one of the most advanced interfaces on the market, with stylable, resizable, GPU-accelerated drawing.

Filter Routing and Stereo Shaping in MCombMB

Each of the six bands is fully configurable and independent, so you can build layered filter chains rather than a single fixed filter. Routing the four filters in each band in series produces a different character than running them in parallel, and the mix option lets you combine both approaches.

Phase inversion is available per channel. Used on a stereo signal, it changes how the left and right channels relate to each other, which is the basis for the stereo width effects the developer highlights.

MCombMB also supports M/S processing, single-channel processing and surround processing of up to eight channels, so the same filter design can be applied to a stereo mix or a multichannel source.

Modulation, Metering and Workflow

MCombMB includes four modulators, which the developer describes as exceptionally versatile. Any parameter can be modulated from this set, and MIDI controllers can be assigned through MIDI learn. Four multiparameters let you move several settings at once, and smart randomisation can generate new starting points.

A visualisation engine shows classic meters and time graphs, so you can watch the signal while you edit. Automatic gain compensation and a safety limiter help keep levels under control while you experiment. Global preset management and online preset exchange are included, and A-H preset slots make it easy to compare versions. Up-sampling is adjustable from 1x to 16x.
