About
Kratos is a transient shaper. Attack brings the front of every hit forward or pushes it back, and Sustain lifts or cuts what rings after it, with no threshold to set, so it works the same on a quiet loop as on a loud one.
Split shapes the lows, mids and highs apart (a kick's thump, a snare's crack, a hat's tick), and Clip catches the peaks a harder attack makes. The screen shows the hits coming in and going out over the last few seconds, and what was added or taken.
34 presets for drums, drum buses, instruments, mixes and loops, and fixes.
