CHAPTER 52
SPL Transient Designer
Overview
Universal Audio has partnered with German company Sound Performance
Lab (SPL) to bring you the Transient Designer, with its unique and compelling
Differential Envelope Technology for shaping the dynamic response of a
sound. Only two simple audio controls are required to allow you to effortlessly
reshape the attack and sustain characteristics. SPL was the first company to
design an analog solution for level-independent shaping of envelopes,
allowing transients to be accelerated or slowed down and sustain prolonged
or shortened.
You can shorten or lengthen the attack and sustain of percussive signals such
as kick drum, snare or toms, easily take the bleed from open mics, or expand
the room sound of overheads. The Transient Designer’s magic can be applied
to virtually any other signal as well: Amplify or reduce the picking sound of an
acoustic guitar, hold the sound of strings longer, or reduce the reverb time of
a choir.
