Melody / Help / Dynamics / Transient Shaper

Transient Shaper

Reshape a hit's ATTACK and SUSTAIN independently — the classic two-knob designer, no threshold to set. Turn ATTACK up for a snappier beater click / a harder snare crack (down to soften it); turn SUSTAIN up to fatten the body and lengthen the room tail (down to tighten it dry). It's level-INDEPENDENT — a quiet ghost note is shaped as much as a loud accent — so it's the go-to per-drum tool: punch up a kick, tame a ringing tom, tighten a boomy room. At 0 / 0 it's transparent. Melody-owned DSP (dynamics-rt); both knobs automate.
