    <title>Multiband Compressor</title>
    <p>
        This kind of compressor splits the signal in four different frequency ranges.
        These ranges are compressed separately and mixed together afterwards again.
    </p>
    <p>
        PulseEffects uses the multiband compressor developed by Calf Studio.

                Amount of milliseconds the signal has to rise above the threshold before gain
                reduction starts.

                Amount of milliseconds the signal has to fall below the threshold before the
                reduction is decreased again.

                If a signal rises above this level it will affect the gain reduction.

                Choose if the multibandcompressor should take the signal peak for detection or
                the RMS value (it is smoother).
