recording, in project or home studios and P. A. applications.
For the first time the T
to manipulate the attack and sustain characteristics of a signal
regardless of level, and using simple controls. Usually equalisers
are used to separate instruments in a mix – the tonal aspect of the
signal is considered, but not the temporal aspect. By accelerating
the transients or/and shortening the sustain of an instrument, the
mix can be made to sound more transparent. Instruments can be
mixed at lower levels, still maintaining their positions in the mix,
but occupying less space.
'Front/rear-positioning' of drums or other percussive instru-
ments can effectively be 're-miked' during the mix – at least, that's
the subjective effect. Applied to single instruments or loops, this
technology creates new sounds or adds weight and authority to
existing sounds.
There are several ways to connect the T
equipment. One of the most flexible options is wiring the
