I was reading another mastering related thread on multi-comp settings attack, release etc...

I didn't really agree with what was said as far as using a fast attack/release time because i believe that the multi-comp isn't used for catching those quick transients, but rather for making the mix sit better. i believe that the peak limiter is used to 'eliminate' those quick transients that ruin your ability to get a loud mix.

having said that, and taking much to long to say it, where are you putting your crossover points for a 4 section multi-comp?
 
Crossover points:
1. at 40-50 Hz, attack 25 ms
2. at 90-120 Hz, attack 25 ms
3. at 1.5-2.0 kHz, attack 15-20 ms
4. at 5 kHz, attack 5-15 ms

Ratio 2:1 - 4:1
