Multiband compression
Multiband compressors can selectively compress specified frequency bands. They are primarily a mastering tool, but their inclusion in DAW plug-in sets is increasing their use among mix engineers.
Parallel Compression
We need something about parallel compression too. This is when you send to a compressor from a pre-fader Aux Send, instead of an insert. You then blend the uncompressed and compressed signals, effectively allowing you to turn up the lows, instead of turn down the transients. The effect is subtler, and crisper than standard compression, because the results of the signal processing have no time based action on transients. Instead, the unaltered signal has it's quieter components phase-amplified when a signal with squashed transients is added to it. Because of this, phase corelation between the two signals is crucial.
