Solo
When you activate SOLO on the Sample module you will listen only
to the sample signal. This will allow you to concentrate on that spe-
cific signal and make all necessary adjustments.
Transient Designer Processor
A transient can be defined as the first impulse of a waveform. What
the Transient Designer does is shape the waveform according to
the transient, and it only needs two controls to achieve that, either
by amplifying or attenuating the ATTACK and/or SUSTAIN. Pro-
cessing is not level dependent so it acts equally on all transients,
regardless of whether they are loud or soft.
The Transient Designer in the DrumXchanger’s Sample module
allows you to process the drum sample. The Transient Designer’s
potential is often underestimated given that it only has two adjust-
able parameters. Nevertheless, the acoustic interaction of the four
essential characteristics affected by the control options provides
everything to process a dynamic signal curve. It is a very useful tool
that can be easily set “by ear” and whose real potential is only evi-
dent in the outcome. And it is precisely this sound shaping based
on the signal’s dynamic pattern that is very useful when embed-
ding sounds. So, when you use the Transient Designer to optimize a
sample for replacement, the results are amazingly perfect.
Transient Designer Processor/Attack
The ATTACK control cuts or boosts a transient up to 15 dB. Posi-
tive values enhance the attack while negative values reduce or
eliminate the attack.
Transient Designer Processor/Sustain
The SUSTAIN control cuts or boosts a transient’s sustain up to
24 dB. Positive values extend the sustain while negative values
shorten the decay.
