Product Description

• The most versatile tool for reshaping the dynamics of drums
• loops
• and much more. Impact is designed to help with the more nitty-gritty
• detail-oriented aims of transient shaping. The multi-channel processor is switchable between one
• two or three bands of transient modification - this means that different frequency bands can be adjusted independently so that if you wanted to emphasize the attack of some airy hi-hats while
• in the same sample
• dulling the attack of a low-rumbling kick drum
• you could do simply by adjusting the Attack and Sustain controls for each frequency band. As part of its dynamic processing chain
• Impact also includes four switchable styles of analogue-modelled saturation
• along with a final processing section that includes a clipper
• limiter and a maximizer designed specifically to work with transient materials. This ensures that you are not only able to shape your transients exactly how you want
• but you can also add some additional character to your sounds in the process. System Requirements Mac macOS 10.11 El Capitan or higher (Intel / M1 Apple Silicon supported) (64-bit only) VST 2.4
