Thilo, I would ask the question as to if your ultimate goal is really to totally and completely separate the bands, or, rather, to control levels in a subtle, musical manner. If the former, then ask yourself what happens when an instrument or voice straddles the crossover frequency, moving

Thilo, If you use traditional (analog-similar) IIR filters, you can create a simple, first-order low-pass, then subtract that signal from the original to create a perfectly-summing, complementary high-pass. This is what I usually do. To create more bands, I just do the same thing again to those

Hello all! I have implemented a multi-band compressor (3 bands). However, I am not really satisfied with the splitting of the bands, they have quite a large overlap. What I do is taking the input singal, perfoming a low pass filter (say 250Hz) and use the result for the low band#1. Then I
