There are level meters on the master volume output on the MFX routing page. When you see red, you've hit the digital ceiling and it clips in a bad way. A stereo master limiter will keep this from happening.

I used the multiband compressor as a sort of EQ and level booster. Sometimes it's not appropriate though. Try putting it on an orchestral combi. It will make everything more balanced and louder. But if you use it on a combi with a lot of 80s synths, it might smash things up too much and rob some of the life away.

Lately I've been swapping out the multiband compressor for the stereo tube preamp model. That gives a bit more punch and a touch of saturation. Works well for adding beef and warmth.

As an insert effect, the mic models are fun. Try a multi condenser in close, on, or off-axis position. It can sometimes make things less far away and digital. Kind of like taking a blanket off the speakers, or more like aiming them more at your ears.

Kronos has a lot of pretty good effects. The reverbs are kinda meh, but if you dig around with settings, you'll find a lot of gems in the various effects.


Thank's! Great information. All this really have put more flesh on the bones for me regarding effects and how to go forward managing them in different contexts.
