Transient Designer 3 Co n t e n t s Dear customer , Thank you f or the confidence you have shown t owards SPL elec- tronics GmbH by purchasing the SPL T RANSIENT D ESIGNER , a highly innova tive D ynamic Processor manufactured to a high standard .
Transient Designer 4 The new T RANSIENT D ESIGNER provides a revolutionary concept for dynamic processing rendering controls such as Threshold , Ratio and Gain super fluous.
Transient Designer 5 P ack aged in a standard 19 " EIA format and occupying 1U (44,45 mm) of rack space, the T RANSIENT D ESIGNER can be installed in a standard rack, but it is recommended that the rear of the case be suppor ted , especially in touring applications.
Transient Designer 6 Before connecting the T RANSIENT D ESIGNER switch power off at all connected units. The T RANSIENT D ESIGNER is fitted with XLR-connectors for balanced operation.
Transient Designer 7 SPL's Differential Envelope T echnology® realises level- independent envelope processing , so doing away with the need for a conven- tional Threshold control. T wo envelopes are gener ated and compared - the VCA control voltage is deriv ed from their difference .
Transient Designer 8 The SUST AIN c ontrol circuitry The SUST AIN control circuitr y includes two fur ther env elope generators. The en velope follower En v 3 (Diagram 4), again follows the shape of the original curve.
Transient Designer 9 Diagram 6 illustrates the proc essed cur ves with maximum and minimum sustain compared to the original cur ve from Diagram 1. Impor tant advice when c onnec ting to digital recor ding systems: Each unit connected to the T RANSIENT D ESIGNER should be able to handle high input levels.
Transient Designer 10 The ACTIVE switch oper ates a hard-bypass relay circuit to switch the channels in and out of processing and a status LED indicates that the channel is active.
Transient Designer 11 The A T T ACK control circuitr y incorporates two en velope genera- tors. One follows the original curve while the second produces an env elope with a slow er attack period (Diagram 1, page 7).
Transient Designer 12 The T RANSIENT D ESIGNER is ideally suited for use in prof essional recording , in projec t or home studios and P . A. applications. F or the first time the T RANSIENT D ESIGNER provides the technology to manipulate the attack and sustain characteristics of a signal regardless of level, and using simple controls.
Transient Designer 13 One of the most interesting applications of the T RANSIENT D ESIGNER is processing drum and percussion sounds , both from samples to live drum sets: • The attack of a bass drum or a loop can be emphasised to increase the power and presence in the mix.
Transient Designer 14 • Used to process guitar sounds, the T RANSIENT D ESIGNER softens the instrument by lowering the attack. Alternatively , increasing the attack lets the sound jump to the front of the mix, which works par ticularly well for picking guitars.
Transient Designer 15 Internal 15 V A torroidal transformer V oltage selector Ground-lift switch T ransformer , power cord and mains connector with VDE, UL and CSA approv als. F uses (primar y voltages): 200 mA/400 mA. Special care has gone into the design of the power supply of the T RANSIENT D ESIGNER .
