Total jawdrop! And what is it with FabFilters interface that make my credit card shiver in fear? :hihi:
Looks like an insanely fun plugin. I wonder how far you can push it sound design wise. I doubt it will be as hairy as Rough Rider Pro - but with all those options there seem to be quite some opportunities.

Impressed!

So if you use the FF complete my bundle discount, do all of your previously owned plugs get wrapped into one bundle with the new one?

At work right mow, looking forward to trying this one. Anyone have any experience on how it compares to C6?

hmm it's just a MB compressor though I don't find it very appealing. Although I feel somehow compelled to buy Fabfilter stuff, which is scary. lol

Moving the side-chain round is very cool though and it is a great GUI.

Edit - Okay now that I use it it's pretty impressive. I like it more than Waves C6. it sounds cleaner and is way more featured.

Another edit - Okay I shut my mouth. Very impressive and useful tool.

This is also a multiband stereo width tool.

It can be used for some stuff where I normally use other tools (like the Brainworx bx_digital) because it can work differently with M/S. It's for example also shown in the video how to remove the side (stereo) from the bass. There are also this trigger settings (mid/side) with percent values. This all makes this MB very interesting and different from the competitors.

Anyway, it makes no sound. For some "glue" on the master and with some vintage sound I would always put a vintage compressor (Neve 33609, Vertigo or similar) after the MB (only with 1-2 dB gain reduction).

Both are similar I use the C6 a lot, I A/B the two today and the FF is more transparent and does have a few more tricks up its sleeve. Easier to use use too. Definitely try it out, I have nearly all the FF plugs and love them all, this doesn't dissapoint.

Ahh, looks like FabFilter increased all their prices by $5.

It adds up when you're planning on buying a bundle of 5+ plugins (like me).

I am interested in the dynamic phase processing idea - does that make a difference to say C4 or C6?

Awesome presentation.

"An error occurred during validation." and it says the video does not exist. Do you need to be logged in somewhere to be able to see it?

If you look at the readout in Dan's vid you see the difference, how different to a C6 it is you would have to compare them under the same conditions. I will say as a C6 user it is much more transparent sounding, wether thats because of the dynamic phase I couldnt tell you.
