Motion Modes and Effect Control

Transit 2 offers six motion modes: Macro, LFO, Follower, Sidechain, Gate and Sequencer. Macro moves the whole FX chain with one knob, which can be automated for large sweeping transitions. LFO creates rhythmic motion that can be synced to the host BPM or left free-running. Follower moves effects with the dynamics of your track, and Sidechain uses an external input to control movement, which the developer frames as an extension of classic kick ducking.

The Sequencer mode launches DAW-synced transitions with a click. Sequencer Loop can run Transit as an LFO for constant movement across an entire track. Each effect parameter can stay static or be linked to the motion mode, and a slope control gives each knob its own ramp curve.

Effect Modules and Presets

The plugin includes 28 effect modules, including 10 new in this version: Warp, Loop, Reverser, Speaker, EQ, Analog Chorus, Shifter +, Mod Filter, Retroverb and Compressor. The effects cover modulation, degradation and vintage options, reverb, delay, several filter types, plus a synth oscillator and noise generator for sweeps. Modules can be added and moved freely around the chain.

Transit ships with more than 200 presets created by Andrew Huang and leading sound designers, and a randomization engine lets you set random ranges and lock parameters.
