If all you want to do is multiband compression, you might consider the
MDA MultiBand compressor LV2 plugin along with the latest release of
ecasound with LV2 support. If you're looking for custom application you
will unfortunately have to roll your own. Here is a reply I got on LAU
on how to best implement crossovers using LADSPA filters.

As others have pointed out, the ecasound implementation of Nama's
mastering chain is a perfect example towards achieving this.

All in all, I do not think this is achievable in ecasound without using
some form of external plugins, either LADSPA or LV2, but I may be wrong.
