# Multiband AGC

The Multiband AGC section has two primary functions.

The first is to build RMS energy which increases perceived loudness and delivers a more "processed" sound when compared to the original source material.

The second is to provide spectral consistency to the processed audio. This is often called the "sonic signature" of a stream or station. Songs that are bass-shy (think 70's rock) receive a boost in the lower frequencies. Songs that are overly bright (think synth-heavy 80's pop) get their top-end smoothed out.

- **Band Energy (B1 – B5):** The primary method of achieving a particular frequency balance of the Multiband AGCs. Higher settings result in higher output levels from that band.
- **Per-Band Compression Boost:** Available by expanding the "More" menu, these controls adjust the drive and activity of the Multiband AGCs on a per-band basis.
