Metric Halo Software Multiband Expander Plug-In (Download)

Equipped with three independent expanders that handle separate frequency zones, the Metric Halo Multiband Expanderplug-in offers an ultraflexible approach to noise suppression on vocals, guitars, drums, and more. Perfect for recording/mixing engineers and music producers who need to control noise, such as hum in a guitar recording, outside the primary tonal range of a particular track, Multiband Expander can be tuned, focused, and even automated to attenuate specific frequency bands while leaving others intact.Each band offers tweakable threshold, attack, and release settings, as well as buttons for solo and mute functions. Crossover points may be customized and bands can be linked or even disabled when not needed. Built-in SpectraFoo spectrum analysis provides an accurate, real-time display of the plug-in’s effect on your signal. Additionally, Multiband Expander has per-band gain reduction meters and an adjustable UI size.
