Features
- Natural sounding transient shaping without changing the perceived volume
- Quickly define the transient and release length
- 3 different shaping curve types
- Transparent input and output clipping
- Split distortion between the full sound, just the transient, or just the body of the sound
- Waveform display that clearly shows the defined transient length in real time
- Adjustable detection sensitivity to pick up more or less transients
- Incredibly accurate transient detection and capable of detecting very dynamic input material
- Choose between Stereo, Mid/Side, Mid, Side options for shaping
- Designed with simplicity and quickness in mind
- Low CPU usage
Change Log:
v1.2
- Fixed a critical bug that would prevent the proper lookahead compensation from initializing in sample rates other than 48000
v1.1
- New attack and decay curves; Natural, Punchy and Classic
- New transparent input clipper and output clipper with anti-aliasing filters to prevent aliasing without oversampling when clipping
- New distortion mode to choose between distorting the whole input, just the transient or just the body of the sound. Additionally a presence control has been added that acts similar to a transient driven EQ control to subtly boost the high end of a sound
- Can now choose between processing in Stereo, Mid/Side, Mid, and Side.
- Transient detection is no longer semi-level dependent, will detect transients at near silence with equal accuracy to full loudness
- Slight UI and UX updates to make things easier to use and read
- All control are now midi mappable and automation enabled
- Major CPU optimizations reducing the overall usage significantly
