I just woke up from decade-long nap under a rock and discovered that OTT preset is an evergreen classic now that has its uses. Too bad Multiband Dynamics doesn't provide dry/wet control for parallel compression. So here's the rack.



- Defaults to old good OTT preset
- Uses another dummy MD instance with same filter set in Dry chain to avoid phase problems
- Uses dummy Resonators for peak-based crossfading and this trick for Dry/Wet macro with nice % value
- Input was replaced with trim/untrim for better gain control
- Unsurprisingly, 50% Amount/100% Wet isn't the same as 100% Amount/50% Wet
- Surprisingly, can work any multiband settings, not just OTT

Here's the link

You know that the "Amount" knob is Dry/Wet right?

It's not, that's exactly why it's called "Amount".

Yes, you are absolutely right! Learned a new thing here. Thanks
