Stay on top of Correlation A multiband correlation meter with essential metering and monitoring functions. Can You Relate? Why the heck do you need a multiband correlation meter? It’s simply that a regular stereo correlation meter doesn´t always show you trouble spots. If your fat kick and bass is mono, it’s mostly correlated so a stereo correlation meter would show that everything is O.K. while your strings, hi-hat, or vocals are cancelling out! 2BC multiCORR combines the useful and beloved functions of our free 2BusControl monitor controller plugin with a carefully designed, third octave multiband correlation meter. Our multiband approach warns you not to overdo stereo spread with your fancy spreading tool, or when your stereo mics are delivering a signal with too much out–of–phase content. Either way, you’d get cancellation when your mix is summed to mono. Correlation measures the degree of relatedness between left and right channel. If they’re alike, that’s mono, and they will have perfect correlation. Stereo noise is decorrelated, with no similarity between channels. Stereo music should be more like the former, with a bit of “stereoness” to create a soundstage, whereas convincing, diffuse reverb should have lower inter-channel correlation. When content is present in one channel, and an inverted phase version is in the other channel, that sums to zero in mono and the audio disappears. Unobtrusive Power 2BC multiCORR’s powerful features hide behind its clean and simple UI. We’ve brought essential functionality and innovative user interface design to what used to be an unremarkable product category. With five monitoring modes, an ergonomic and deceptively simple interface, highly tuned correlation metering over 31 bands plus stereo balance and correlation, you’ve got to try 2BC multiCORR for yourself. Better By Design Most correlation meters use a cosine scale, derived from old analog meters, while 2BC multiCORR employs a trueLinear™ scale. This linear scale better matches your perception. As with all of MAAT’s products, 2BCmC follows our guidelines for creating meaningful tools for modern engineers. 2BC multiCORR combines essential metering and monitor controls with a 31 band correlation meter group. Details 31 bands of correlation with carefully chosen centre frequencies Exclusive trueLinear™ scale for higher precision with visuals that match your perception Stereo Balance and Correlation Five essential monitor controls: Left–Only, Right–Only, Mono (L+R), Diff (L-R) and Flip Collapsable UI lets you see only what you need Extras Includes a native version that runs in standalone mode, great for dedicated metering Plug–in runs on all major DAWs: AAX, AU, VST 2 & VST 3 Applications 2BC multiCORR is a general purpose tool for both production and post. Use its powerful metering and monitor controls for: Tracking and Mixing Mastering and Remastering Sound & EFX Libraries Radio & Television Production & Broadcast Identifying Problem Elements; EFX, panning, widening or frequency ranges that may compromise playback or downstream processes Verifying: balance, panning, super stereo processing and other creative decisions Essentials 2BC multiCORR slots into all modern workflows: Supports LPCM sample rates up to 384k for DSD and high–end postproduction All standard formats: AU, VST 2 and 3, AAX Compatible with macOS and Windows Low fatigue visual design Resizable user interface for every screen resolution The Low Down If your material is destined for LP distribution, keep in mind that lacquer cutting has difficulty with large amplitude, out–of–phase information at very low frequencies. 2BC multiCORR provides four bands of analysis for the critical bottom octave, six additional bands of metering covering frequencies up to 200 Hz, plus three additional bands for the 200 to 400 Hz range. Other than vinyl, why should you care about mono? Monaural playback is more prevalent than ever, with the rise of battery–powered, hand-held party speaker
