Range multiband compressor in scriptnode

[hyperphonias]

@Chazrox okay i'm kind of confused so i prefer going from here. I just want to make a range for the dBs substracted. Like -8dBs as the range and blablabla but I have no clue, i think someone did it with pma node but not really sure

[Chazrox]

@hyperphonias There's also already a multiband node template if you search in the node list under 'Templates'.

[Chazrox]

@hyperphonias

There are versions for different split scenarios. I think these can get you started.

[hyperphonias]

@Chazrox yeah but this is not what im looking for, i just wanna do a range slider

[Chazrox]

@hyperphonias said in Range multiband compressor in scriptnode:

i am making a multiband compressor

This is literally the template.

@hyperphonias said in Range multiband compressor in scriptnode:

i wanted to figure out the most important which is the range

This is literally it.

If you JUST want to make a slider CONTROL for these thats a different story.
Are you asking how to start this whole project from scratch, or do you JUST need to script the controls?

[hyperphonias]

@Chazrox i already know about the splitters i used them before, but now im stuck and i have no clue how to make a range slider not splitting bands

@hyperphonias

Did you see this from my first response?

See if this helps.

If this isnt what you need I might be confused about what you're asking for tbh. If so, I apologize. Just trying to help.

@Chazrox

He's not asking for a range slider.
He's asking for a way to create a compressor that has a 'range' which is actually just a hard limit on how much compression can be achieved.

I don't think OP understands how compressors work so this is a more complex ask than he realises. It will depend hugely on the compressor architecture. For instance a return to threshold / return to zero compressor topology will have different ways of handling range... And if you want a range that has a soft knee leaning into it, or a resistance force that gently allows the GR to hit the range ceiling, then that's another thing too... There are many considerations to be made

@hyperphonias @griffinboy OK. Im totally off the mark here. Misunderstanding. My apologies. I digress.

Thank You @griffinboy

[hyperphonias]

@griffinboy thanks, this is what im asking for yes, i just wanna test it on a regular compressor. I plan it on first trying it for a DeEsser, but my goal is to reach a multiband compressor. I don't care if its a hard multiband compressor, i just want it to be a multiband compressor with a range feature so thats why im asking a 1 band example

[griffinboy]

@Chazrox

No worries, the question wasn't asked in a clear way.

@hyperphonias
This is actually quite a complex thing you are asking. A compressors parts don't really exist in isolation. You can't really create one part of the design without thinking about the rest of the design. For example some attack release algorithms support variable width knees, others do not (or in the least will give you a much harder time). So if you don't pick the right algorithm off the bat, you may end up ruining your design. So you must consider the whole compressor at once when making a design.

I don't think I'll be able to help you with this one, I'm short on time these days. Maybe someone here can point you in the right direction if they have already made a scriptnode compressor!

Else, take a read of this:

After reading this a few times you will understand digital compressors. And that's not a bad thing, if you're wanting to build one...
