Each band also gives you three selectable filter types that are particularly suited to each band. There are three bands to each EQ section (low, mid, high) with variable frequency selection and gain for each band. One for your attack and one for your sustain, letting you shape exactly the way you want your attack to sound. Even dynamic EQs change the entire envelope, even if it’s only momentarily.

Retrigger controls time between triggered eventsĮQ plug-ins only make global changes to an instrument whatever you do to the transient is also done to the sustain and decay.Three sidechain modes with “listen” feature to monitor sidechain signal.Sidechain EQ lets you dial in the frequencies that trigger the detector.Internal or external sidechain control of detector.Adjustable transient detector lets you control sensitivity, eliminate false triggers from bleed.Mix knob lets you adjust wet/dry signal.

Gain controls let you boost or eliminate transients and sustain independently.Hybrid transient designer with two 3-band equalizers with selectable slopes.Only Transgressor gives you the ability to control transients and sustain without compromising one for the other. The answer is the Transgressor (you must have seen that coming). What if you need a brighter attack but want to keep the dark resonance of toms or kick drum? Perhaps you need more midrange attack but wish to brighten the resonance of a hi-hat? Perhaps you’re happy with the overall sound of snare but the attack is just a little too bright. Transgressor not only lets you equalize the attack and sustain portions of the instrument’s envelope individually (yes, you read that right attack can be equalized differently from sustain), but it also lets you dial in the specific low, mid, and high frequencies independently on each. No big deal you say? Any EQ plug-ins will do? Au contraire mon frère. The Transgressor combines a transient designer with two equalizers.

It gives you the ability to craft the sound of drums and other instruments not just in terms of attack and sustain, but timbrally as well. A true one of a kind, Transgressor goes beyond the limits of standard transient designers.
