  • Envelope shaping

    Adjust Strike from −12 to +12 dB and Body/Tail from −24 to +12 dB. Each region has an independent duration. Amount scales the combined gain envelope.

  • Detection and timing

    Internal or external triggering with Full, Low, Mid and High detector bands. Focus filters the detector signal while the processed audio remains full-band. Sensitivity sets how readily quieter hits are detected; Contour adjusts onset detection and transitions between regions.

  • Selective saturation

    Apply 4× oversampled Drive to the full signal or target Strike, Body or Tail. Region targeting controls the saturation contribution independently of the clean signal. Drive Comp offsets the level change from Drive; an optional Safety Clip keeps the output at or below 0 dBFS.

  • Monitoring and workflow

    Host-synchronised waveform, onset markers and envelope displays. Delta monitors the difference between processed and latency-aligned dry audio. A/B comparison, undo/redo, 28 factory presets and interface scaling from 75–200%.
