One of the most interesting applications of the T

RANSIENT

D

ESIGNER

is processing drum and percussion sounds, both from

samples to live drum sets:

• The attack of a bass drum or a loop can be emphasised to

increase the power and presence in the mix.

•  The sustain period of a snare or a reverb-flag can be shortened

in a very musical way to obtain more transparency in the mix.

• Recording a live drum set, toms or overheads can be shortened

without physically damping them.

• Miking live drums is considerably faster and easier, because the

apparent 'distance' of the microphone can be corrected by
varying the ATTACK and SUSTAIN values.

• The T

RANSIENT

D

ESIGNER

is a perfect partner to noise gates in live

drum miking.

• Corresponding adaptively to the duration of the original signal,

the sustain can be shortened more musically than with tightly
adjusted release times, effectively reducing crosstalk.

• When recording live drums or other instruments on a HD recor-

ding system, the T

RANSIENT

D

ESIGNER

prevents time-consuming

removing of crosstalk signals on the hard disk.

• It is possible to create unusual dynamic effects, including new

and interesting pan effects. If, for example, a mono loop is
patched through two channels of the T

RANSIENT

D

ESIGNER

panned

hard left and right in the mix, such that the left channel is
processed with increased ATTACK and reduced SUSTAIN while
the right channel is adjusted in the opposite way, a very special
stereo loop sound is created. You have to try this to appreciate
what it sounds like, but expect to hear a lot of unusual stereo
movement.

• By reducing ATTACK and increasing SUSTAIN, signals that are

too up-front sounding can be moved back into the mix.
Additionally the FX parts of 'too dry' signals are strengthened.

• Drum sounds are easier to integrate into the mix. If the acoustic

level of a snare is expanded to approxi4 dB by increa-
sing the attack value, the effective increase of peak levels in the
overall mix is merely about 0.5 dB to 1 dB.
