SPL Transient Designer 4 Mk2

In 1998, the SPL Transient Designer created a new breed of dynamic processors.
Level-independent processing of attack and sustain of audio signals has revolutionized
music production in a significant way.

The newest generation of the Transient Designer 4 features the same processing qualities as its predecessor, but comes in a new design and has an even better feel due to the solid aluminium knobs. The Transient Designer 4 Mk2 offers four Transient Designer channels in one 19" device.

With the Transient Designer it is possible to manipulate the envelopes of audio signals level-independently (no threshold!). Accelerate or slow down transients, lengthen or shorten sustain times - with just two controls: attack and sustain.

All time constants are automated in a musical way and optimize themselves adaptively according to the characteristics of the input signal.

Attack can be used to increase or attenuate the transient phase of a signal by up to 15 dB. A positive attack value increases the amplitude of the transient response. Negative attack values lead to an attenuation.

Sustain can be used to increase or attenuate the sustain phase of a signal by up to 24 dB. Positive sustain values extend the sustain. Negative Sustain values shorten the sustain.
