AtomicTransient

AtomicTransient is an innovative plugin for polyphonic audio-material manipulation and multichannel/polyphonic transient and envelope shaping. It allows appropriate "note-based"/sound-event envelope processing in polyphonic audio material. Ideal for mixes, loops, recordings. Refined algorithms provide precise and clear transient detection and excellent dynamic adjustments.

Flexibility
AtomicTransient handles up to three channels where each channel processes all parameters separately. Use the channels e.g. for guitar, bass-drum and snare-drum and adjust the detection to listen only to desired instruments or use Auto-Threshold to automatically detect the basic transients. The included effects enable universal, time-based change of the envelope or adjustments by LFO filter - in combination with polyphonic mode also for specific drums or note-based for polyphonic recording sequences like piano or guitar.

Polyphony
Polyphonic processing accesses the relevant parts of the sound - all other, already audible sounds remain unaffected. This allows, for example, to respond only to the bass-instrument, the snare-drum or the hi-hat to remove or separate them and add sustain or modify the attack. The overlapping sounds of a polyphonic instrument such as piano pedals, guitar strokes, or synthesizer samples can also be adjusted like separate "notes" in the envelope. You can also change the loops of your sample library universally.

Multichannel / Mixer
AtomicTransient provides up to three parallel processing channels. Each channel can detect and process transients in its own frequency range and uses different effects on the audio signal. The detection of transients per channel can be limited by a spectral filter to a specific frequency band, so that a transient is triggered only for chosen audio material. The effect outputs can be mixed to defined frequency ranges - parameters control the amount of effect and original signal.

Effects
AtomicTransient processes audio signals with built-in effects. When a transient is detected, the tool processes the associated spectral components with an effect that starts at the moment of the triggering event. There are currently two effects available - 'Envelope Response' and 'LFO Filter'. The 'Envelope Response' effect controls the amplitude over time, allowing for precise adjustment of drum lines and changes to the entire envelope of instruments. The 'LFO Filter' effect dynamically modifies frequency ranges with timed LFOs and can give a concise character to the sound by adjusting the resonance.

Interactive live displays and more
A detail-context styled spectral meter displays transient events, channels and the signal.
To set the envelope optimal to desired values, the ADSR effect extracts a visual representation from the real envelope of the current signal.
Two "listen" functions supports the setting of parameters. AtomicTransient also supports common parameters like dry/wet, gain, auto-gain and features A/B program comparison, preset copy & paste (via clipboard as XML), integrated MIDI learn, a scalable/resizable user-interface with two different skins and more than 160 factory presets.
