Sustain
With the SUSTAIN control you can amplify or attenuate the sustain of a signal by up to 24 dB.
The SUSTAIN control circuitry also uses two envelope generators. One follows the shape of
the original curve and adapts perfectly to the dynamic gradient. The second envelope gener-
ator produces an envelope with a longer sustain. From the difference of both envelopes the
VCA control voltage is derived. The gradient of the control voltage matches the time flow of
the original signal.
Positive SUSTAIN values lengthen the sustain, negative SUSTAIN values shorten the sustain.
For an extensive description and explanation of the possible applications of the SUSTAIN
control please refer to “Applications” on pp. 42-43.
Output Gain
The OUTPUT GAIN control allows you to reduce the output signal by up to -22dB or boost it
by up to +6dB. This ensures that following devices receive an optimized level. The centered
12-o‘clock position of the control equals 0dB output gain.
IMPORTANT: In LINK mode, the master module does NOT transfer OUTPUT GAIN settings to
the slave-module. You ALWAYS have to set the output values of both modules manually.
Link Mode
You can operate two Transient Designer modules at a time by activating the LINK mode.
You can only run two modules in the LINK mode at a time. Main applications may be stereo
processings.
When operated in LINK mode, both modules are operated by the master module’s control
voltage. This ensures a coherent stereo operation. In LINK mode, all controls of the (left) master
module—including the ON and LINK switch—control the slave module. The master also controls
all switch illuminations on the slave. All controls of the slave module are inactive in LINK mode.
IMPORTANT:
The only exception is the Output Gain control which always has to be set manu-
ally at each module.
If you press the LINK button of the slave module without establishing the LINK mode through
the master module, you will find that the LINK LED of the master module will not illuminate.
This tells you that you have pressed the wrong LINK button since the controls of the master
module control both devices in LINK mode.
Signal LED
The SIG. LED indicates that an audio signal reaches the input with a level above -20 dB. This
LED helps the operator especially in complex setups to determine immediately whether the
Transient Designer actually receives any signal.
