Surreal Machines Impact
Multiband Transient Shaper
$4.99
New: the big sibling of Crack. Up to three bands of attack and sustain, four saturation styles, and a clipper, limiter and maximizer. Launch price until 6 December.
Impact reshapes the dynamics of drums, loops and anything with a hit in it. Pull the attack forward or tuck it back, stretch or shorten the sustain, then give it some grit — separately in up to three frequency bands.
It's the iOS version of our desktop transient shaper, with the same sound.
SHAPE EACH BAND ON ITS OWN
• Work in one, two or three bands, and drag the split points to wherever your sound needs them
• Attack and Sustain for every band: tighten a boomy kick without dulling the snare, or bring the click of a kick forward while the room stays where it is
GIVE IT CHARACTER
• Four saturation styles, from gentle warmth to outright distortion
• Put the saturation before the split, at the crossover, or on each band
SHAPE THE TONE
• A four-band EQ with shelves and bells, before or after the dynamics
FINISH IT
• An output stage built for transient material: clip, limit, maximize, or pass straight through
START FROM A PRESET
• 22 presets, from subtle sculpting to multiband distortion
WORKS WHERE YOU DO
• Audio Unit (AUv3) effect for AUM, Loopy Pro, Logic Pro for iPad, GarageBand, Cubasis, FL Studio Mobile and other hosts
• iPhone and iPad
Want to hear the idea first? Crack, our single-band transient shaper, is free on the App Store. Impact is where it goes when one band isn't enough.
Made in Berlin by Surreal Machines, the makers of Modnetic and Diffuse.
