Hi All, as it says on the tin, looking to buy a nice transient shaper or maybe a freebie if there is one around. Any recommendations?

One Love!

I never understood the benefits of using a transient shaper.

Anyone here that can clarify?

adding attack, "click" to your drums or sometimes basses to make 'em more SLAP IN THE FACE like

I have a couple of these plugins, what kinda settings would one go about putting on them?

U know, to make my bass sound like excisions.

seriously tho, got any ideas on how to tweak the parameters to achieve this "smack" effect?

Dominion by Digital Fish Phones is well worth a look in too...

did you see the demonstration video?

Kinda explains what it does, but not in the context of dance music in general.

TransDes vst is a great wee freebie
http://www.stormrecordingstudio.co.uk/VST.htm

the Fruity Waveshaper also is part of Fl Studio if you use it but Schaak-Audio is worth its weight in gold!

here's a great wee tutorial in all the main functions of a trans shaper plugin ie adding punch, removing reverb etc

hope that helps

No they are the opposite. They are like expanders

Depends on how you use your compressors

I swear half the time I'm expanding with my compressor. (or more)

I now swear by Shaack's Transient Shaper 2. Really simple to use, and produces amazing results. You really can do amazing things with this thing.

True 'dat, if you have a slower attack on a compressor you can get a similar effect.

However another +1 to Shaack, it is awesome. Easy to over do though.

Oh and the guy in the SPL video sounds like a PIMP!!
