Smack Attack

Add smack and bite to drums, loops, synth hits and all the percussive sounds, projecting the level, shape and duration of the attack and sustain of your transients - from surgical adjustments to wild effects.

The first attack, initial hit or beginning of a sound is known as its "transient". By controlling the exact level, shape and duration of these sounds, you can give your tracks the perfect tightness and dynamic they need, like a compressor can't always do.

With the Smack Attack, you can trigger or tame kicks, snares, claps, drum samples or any other drum or percussion instrument - but also guitar and bass, fast piano arpeggios, synthesizers or even your entire mix.

Unlike traditional transient shapers, Smack Attack lets you control more than just attack and sustain levels; you also get precise control over the shape and duration of transients. You can kick harder than you ever imagined - or give your traps an extra crack. You also have a sensitivity control for modeling selective transients: you can process all your transients, just the loudest ones or anything in between.

With a friendly user interface, more zero latency in the studio and live, the Smack Attack lets you become sensitive or aggressive in your transients, project the perfect pulse into your tracks, and make every hit count.
