No I am not trying to undervalue these great plugz fromSPL and Vinco etc...
But I like to experiment with true sounds and found out by tweaking though much the transient killa is far better sounding (and I mean far !) that SPLattacker or SPLdesigner regarding the attack portion only.
You need tolower much the input level of kila to be able to have that SPL attacker effect.
The sound gets punchy warm and analogish as opposed to SPL which is a little aggresive and the attacxk occurs on a frequency that is not well described as warm, maybe its around 500 hz which sounds not so nice while killa attacks around 250 hz.Thats based on my hearing and not on any real tests ,ok ?
IF ANYONE IS interested i CAN POST A SNARE PRESET THAT will show the above results.
For my production for snare and kick punch I prefer killa !!
If the author would like to update it further I would gladly help out with comments.
I can also buy it at the final version....

Dimitrios
Transient Killa sound better than SPL attacker !!

OK mursurgio, so you've had a bit of an experimenting splurge of late, but do you have to keep posting new threads, each declaring so-and-so better than whatever every time? Certainly it's good to have alternatives etc., but 'better' is such an objective term in these instances that your declarations are starting to wear a bit thin.
For example, you say SPL is more aggressive in your test and TK is more analoguish. What if i wanted a more aggressive sound? Then SPL would be 'better' - see what i mean, there is no 'better', just different applications.
As i say, keep up these explorations as use of alternatives in different ways is good, but maybe you would be better posting your findings in SCOPE Creativity without the 'this is better than that' tabloid headline.

Whenever I say better I mean it so it is my oppinion always.
When I say SPL is more aggresive I mean as I described it has more attack around 500 hz as opposed to Transient killa which has a warmer "agressive" attack and the outcoming signal has not that "bad" 500hz aggresiveness.
Ok I will not include any headlines with my oppinion...
I will try to post some examples.

off course, opinions are always welcome, even more when they sound like opinions, not like facts. but to see headlines in Z like in yellow press looks kinda strange to me
