Shaper is a transient shaper plugin that amplifies or attenuates the transients on an audio track.

The transients are the parts of sound that change a lot in amplitude and in frequency, for example the attack of the sounds, but not only.

It uses an innovative principle by defining two types of transients. The plugin can be used to increase or decrease the attack of sounds, or to boost or attenuate some particular parts of the sounds.

The innovative point of the Shaper plugin is that the transient detection is based on quick signal changes, in terms of frequencies, in addition to the more usual one in terms of amplitude. In a given part of a sound, the more the frequencies and the amplitude change quickly, the more this part of the sound is detected as transient.

The plugin makes the difference between “two types” of transients: transients resulting from fast frequency changes, and transients resulting from fast amplitude changes.

SpikeQ is a frequency based transient shaper.

As a distant cousin of Drum Snapper, it features the same attitude for increasing the Attack of a source, but expands it with the ability to enhance certain frequency areas on the attack portion of a sound.

Do you have a source that is too buried in a mix? Do you want to make certain frequencies pop? SpikeQ enables you to add huge boosts of eq but not making them too boomy and loose (in the low end) or too splashy (in the high end).

• It features 4 semi-parametric eq bands (low and high shelves and 2 peak bands).
• 2x Amount to use on sources with low dynamic range or to have extreme effects.
• A Clipper to avoid big spikes on the audio.
• Oversampling for the clipper section, to avoid aliasing.
• Attack and Release controls to shape the behavior of the transient shaper.
• Output gain (pre-clipper).
• Dry/Wet control to mix between the processed and unprocessed signal.

Diablo Lite is a transient shaper designed to help your drums cut through any mix.

At its core, it consists of a Punch stage (transient shaping) and a Clip stage (soft/hard clipping) routed together in series.

The main purpose of Diablo Lite is to enhance your drums and 808’s so they hit harder and cut through your mix.

For example, we’ve taken some of the softest sounding kick samples and ran them through DIABLO, and even though the .db levels are the same… Those kicks are SMACKING 10x harder and the overall perceived loudness of each sample has exponentially improved.

The Punch stage is a fast-acting transient shaper which boosts the initial attack of your drums, giving them a snappier and more impactful sound. Increasing the Punch amount may cause a significant increase in peak volume if the Clip stage is disabled.

The Clip stage is a switchable hard or soft clipper which prevents incoming signal from exceeding 0 dB. The Clip amount increases the input gain driving the clipper. The hard clipper distorts early and aggressively, while the soft clipper has a “warmer” sound when driven. Cranking the Punch amount will drive the clipper as well, eliminating the loud peaks introduced by the transient shaping and colouring the sound with harmonic distortion. If the output is clipped, the orange indicator above the output level meter will turn on. Clicking this indicator will reset it.

• It has a Focus knob specially made for sharpening the attack of the drum.
• A Tape-like Clipper that is oversampled to avoid aliasing (introduces latency, for best quality).
• With the Release knob it is possible to shape the tail of the drum when adding sustain and change the sensitivity of the processing when adding attack;
• A Tape-like Clipper for distorting high frequencies spikes, with both gain and mix controls. To add excitement.

Air Shelf is a transient shaper.

It isdesigned to shape your (very) high end, mostly above 10kHz. Use the Boost knob to get more highs, and the Tame knob to keep high frequency transients under control.

• Boost : A 1st order high shelf centred at 20kHz, fully decramped up to 21kHz, with a very smooth and gradual response.
• Tame : A mix between a very fast dynamic EQ and a transient shaper. It means that it is NOT dependant on the input signal level and, contrary to a multiband processor, there are no crossovers involved while still only affecting (very) high frequency spikes.
• Zero-latency.

ATK TransientShaper is a mono transient shaper with all the parameters usually hidden from the user.

• RMS is the size of the power power windows.
• Attack is the attack time constant for the slow attack/release filter.
• Attack fraction (or ratio) is the percentage of the attack time constant that will be used for the fast attack/release filter.
• Release is the release time constraint for the fast attack/release filter (as the release time has to be higher).
• Release fraction (or ratio) is the percentage of the release time constant that will be used for the slow attack/release filter (as it has a faster release time constant). Usually set to 100%.
• Threshold.
• Slope is the ratio, 1 being the identity, higher than 1 compressing the transient, less than 1 swelling it.
• Softness is an indicator of the harshness of the knee of the underlying compressor.
• Color is an indicator of the color around the threshold: positive increases the gain around it, negative decreases it.
• Quality is the amount of color.
• Make-up is the gain after the effect.
• Dry-wet gives the balance between the unprocessed signal and the processed signal.
