OVERALL OPINION

For over a year since I use it, and I decided to give an opinion on this plugin because the comments I read here and this saddens me about this product every time. I do not know what style of music on this plugin has been tested by those who says "Okay!" Not terrible "or" it's crap ", but after comparative tests with other plugins on equity battery acoustic rock, I find this "Drumstrip" SSL home really effective. I do not know what he can give to other styles, but for the rock sound, it sounds terrible, and without spending a lot of time.
To be used exclusively on the bass drum, snare and toms. A plugin per track (for
different settings on each item).
We first take care that the incoming signal in the "Input" is a consistent level.
Then we pass by a section "Gate" very complete, up to isolate the treated part.
Then we come in "Transient Shaper," and here it gets the grain, the drag of
sound, this feeling of aspiration. The button "Audition" allows you to choose the desired effect.
A little later we find settings "HF Enhancer" and "LF Enhancer" to play on the frequencies
fundamental and harmonics specific to different barrels (as not worth going
unnecessary tampering frequencies).
Then we enter the "Listen Mic Compressor, no frills, and you open it does. The
knob "Dry-Wet Mix" for the determination of his original and compressed sound (no need to make
Parallel Compression surcharge).
It ends with the "Output", and your drummer said: "Woa!".
