[LAU] Finding new good filter settings for multiband compression

Hello everyone! Nama has a sort of multiband compressor by using three parallel tracks, all processed by filters. Now we've discovered, that our current filter settings aren't good for multiband compression as used in a mastering setup. Yes, I know, people debate wether to use it or not, but it's always nice to have the opportunity and leave it up to the users. We currently use the Glame highpass, lowpass and bandpass IIR LADSPA plugins with unique IDs 1890-1892. The current settings are: lowpass: 106Hz 2 stages bandpass: 520Hz(center) 800Hz(bandwidt) 2 stages highpass: 1030Hz 2 stages These settings give a good full band, but I've heard, that the bands aren't the best choices. I've found some reeferences to using: 160Hz as the first divider and 3500Hz for the second divider. could someone suggest good settings to achieve this. Either with these plugins or with different filters, if easily available and in form of a LADSPA plugin. Ecasound has LV2 support, but it's not capable of all the LV2 features. I'd also do just fine with a formula to calculate it myself, if there is such a thing, that really meets the audible requirements. Fons, last time you were kind enough to supply the settings. How did you arrive at these values? Did you check graphically? I'm pretty sure, that you wouldn't have.
