Product Introduction 产品介绍
The most versatile FET compressor
A compressor that eats transients for breakfast, the 1178 is a rare and expensive legend of the recording studio,
cleaner and more versatile than its older brother, the 1176.
The 1178 has been used by great producers
including Chris Lord-Alge (My Chemical Romance), Bob Clearmountain (Rolling Stones, Christina Aguilera),
Yvan Bing (Phil Collins) and Nigel Godrich (Radiohead).
最全能的 FET 压缩器
作为一款具有传奇色彩的稀有且昂贵的录音室设备，1178 是一种在压缩过程中迅速处理音频中的瞬态音符的工具，
它是 1176 的升级版，更清晰、更多功能。
1178 被众多优秀制作人使用，
包括克里斯·洛德-阿尔奇（My Chemical Romance）、鲍勃·克利尔蒙丹（Rolling Stones, Christina Aguilera）
伊万·宾（Phil Collins）和尼格尔·戈德里奇（Radiohead）。
Our 1178 software (VST/VST3/AU/AAX) meticulously recreates the original 1178 hardware in its tonal color and compression character.
But we’ve taken the Pulsar 1178 further than the original unit,
adding all the features you would expect from a modern, versatile plug-in,
including a full sidechain EQ for added control, an optional saturation stage for warmth and character, and precise metering.
我们的 1178 软件（VST/VST3/AU/AAX）以其音色和压缩特性精心再现了原版1178硬件。
但是，我们的 Pulsar 1178 不仅仅是复制原始设备，
还添加了现代多功能插件所期望的所有功能，
包括完整的侧链 EQ 以实现更精确的控制、可选的饱和阶段以提供温暖和特色，以及精准的测量功能。
Improving on a classic
Pulsar 1178 has a fast and bright character, making it great for dealing with unruly transients in tracking and mixing.
While these qualities make it the ideal choice to smash the transients of a drum room to get a nasty rocky bounce,
the extended attack range also allows gentle dynamic contouring,
and can provide unique mid-band definition and intelligibility on a vocal.
对经典的改进
Pulsar 1178 具有快速和明亮的特点，非常适合处理跟踪和混音中的突发音。
尽管这些特点使它成为将鼓室的突发音击碎以获得恶劣的摇滚反弹的理想选择，
但其扩展的攻击范围还允许进行轻微的动态塑造，
并且可以在人声上提供独特的中频定义和可理解性。
Pulsar 1178 Main Rack
When it comes to compression, having more control over the sidechain signal can bring a mix to the next level.
The dynamics of a drum groove hinge on how compression is triggered by both the kick drum and the snare.
With Pulsar 1178’s full-featured sidechain EQ section, you can make each one hit just the right amount of gain reduction.
Pulsar 1178 主机架
在压缩方面，对侧链信号有更多的控制权可以将混音提升到一个新水平。
鼓的动态取决于压缩是如何由踢鼓和冷响应触发的。
借助 Pulsar 1178 的功能齐全的侧链 EQ 部分，你可以使每个信号都得到恰到好处的增益减少。
1178 EQ
Keeping an eye on dynamics is key to a well balanced mix.
Pulsar 1178’s accurate and modern metering section helps in this important task.
Peak meters allow insight into overall dynamics;
RMS meters let you monitor loudness and match levels;
and a scrolling view helps visualize how the attack and release settings are affecting the gain reduction.
1178 EQ
注意动态平衡对于成功的混音至关重要。
Pulsar 1178 精确而现代化的测量部分有助于完成这一重要任务。
峰值计可提供有关总体动态范围的信息；
RMS 计可用于监控响度并匹配音量；
滚动视图有助于可视化攻击和释放设置对增益减少的影响。
Pulsar 1178 Metering
Add grit and drive to the usually-transparent 1178 with four flavors of saturation: Tape, Triode, Warm and Clip modes
open up new ways of managing dynamics and spectral envelope.
These modes are fully-integrated in the compressor’s gain reduction system,
allowing a unique vibe, unachievable with pre or post saturations.
Pulsar 1178 测量
通过四种饱和模式（磁带、三极管、温暖和剪切），将通常透明的 1178 加入磨砂和推动效果，
以管理动态和频谱包络的新方式。
这些模式完全集成在压缩器的增益减少系统中，
可以提供独特的氛围，无法通过预设或后处理饱和实现。
How does it sound ?
Snappy with a rich sound
More transparent than an 1176, the 1178 allows incredibly fast control over transients when compared to other compressor models.
Add the all-buttons-in mode and Pulsar’s added saturation models, and you can access characterful, colorful tones as well.
声音效果如何？
响亮而丰富的声音
与 1176 相比，1178 比其他压缩器模型能更透明地快速控制突发音。
再加上全开模式和 Pulsar 添加的饱和模式，你可以获得充满特色和色彩的音调。
Vocals
1178 is a great way to get vocals to pop out of a mix and sound very aggressive.
Don’t take our word for it
Bob Clearmountain has used these circuits to do the business on vocals from Mick jagger, Christina Aguilera and more.
人声
1178 是使人声在混音中脱颖而出并具有极具攻击性的绝佳工具。
不要只听我们的说法
鲍勃·克利尔蒙丹一直在使用这些电路来处理来自米克·贾格、克里斯蒂娜·阿奎莱拉等人的人声。
Drum Overheads
The 1178 has the speed to catch crashes in a flash, and also opens up the top end of a signal in a very natural-sounding way.
Chris Lord-Alge uses this combination to great effect on “lacklustre overheads”.
With Lookahead, you can get surgical with your drum transients too.
鼓顶
1178 具有捕捉闪烁音效的速度，还以非常自然的方式打开信号的高频。
克里斯·洛德-阿尔奇在 “lacklustre overheads” 上运用这种组合的效果非常出色。
使用预读功能，你还可以对鼓的突发音进行精确处理。
Bass
Whether you’re catching transients, controlling dynamics, or all-out smashing up the signal, bass is prime fodder for the 1178.
Using our added Saturation circuits, you can really introduce extra grit, helping the bass to pop through a mix and survive on smaller speakers.
低音
无论是捕捉突发音，控制动态还是完全压制信号，低音是1178的主要对象。
使用我们添加的饱和电路，你可以真正增加额外的粗糙感，帮助低音在混音中凸显并在较小的扬声器上生存。
Acoustic guitar
Guitar transients can be particularly fast and harsh,
and the 1178 is a great tool to dampen lively picking, as well as to make the body of the sound bounce and respond.
Fast processing and natural release helps add life to a mix but retain natural guitar tone.
原声吉他
吉他的突发音可能非常快且刺耳，
1178是抑制生动拨弦和使声音的谐振和反应的绝佳工具。
快速处理和自然释放有助于为混音增添生机，同时保留自然的吉他音色。
Buss and Master compression
Transparency and speed make the 1178 a good candidate for buss compression
and even mastering compression (as on Robert Plant’s album Angel Dance).
The added sidechain EQ is helpful in controlling the entire frequency spectrum – not just heavy bass.
总线和母带压缩
透明度和速度使 1178 成为总线压缩的理想选择，
甚至可以用于母带压缩（例如罗伯特·普兰特的专辑《Angel Dance》）。
添加的侧链 EQ 有助于控制整个频谱，而不仅仅是重低音。
Main Features
Topology Preservation Technology
Our modelling technology guarantees a perfect emulation of the original device’s behavior.
From the saturation of diodes, transistors or tubes, to the slight internal filterings, to the tiny calibration defects, everything is perfectly reproduced.
What’s more, we can reproduce all these behaviors without going through a complete simulation of the circuit, thus saving CPU power.
主要特点
拓扑保护技术
我们的建模技术保证了对原始设备行为的完美模拟。
从二极管、晶体管或真空管的饱和到微小的内部滤波，再到微小的校准缺陷，一切都被完美复制。
更重要的是，我们可以在不通过完整电路仿真的情况下再现所有这些行为，从而节省 CPU 资源。
Saturation stage
Push the signal further using one of four saturation flavours, and adjust the processing strength.
Tape emulates the character of magnetic recording technology;
Warm offers subtle distortion that’s great for high frequencies;
Triode emulates a Class A tube amp, adding mostly odd harmonics;
Clip offer digital clipping for heavy-handed action.
饱和阶段
使用四种饱和风格之一推动信号，并调整处理强度。
Tape 模式模拟了磁带录音技术的特性；
Warm 模式提供适用于高频的轻微失真；
Triode 模式模拟了 A 类真空管放大器的效果，主要添加奇次谐波；
Clip 模式提供数字削波效果，适用于需要强力处理的场合。
Mid-Side processing
Pulsar 1178 comes with built-in optional M/S encoding and decoding,
enabling a signal’s mono and stereo information to be processed separately with different settings.
The Listen buttons simplify the setting by allowing you to listen to Mid or Sides signals in isolation,
and the modern visualization can be set to monitor only the channel you’re working on,
so you always know what you’re doing.
中-侧处理
Pulsar 1178 带有内置的可选 M/S 编码和解码功能，
可以将信号的单声道和立体声信号分别进行处理，使用不同的设置。
Listen 按钮简化了设置过程，允许你独立听取 Mid 或 Sides 信号，
现代化的可视化界面可以设置仅监视你正在处理的通道，
让你始终知道自己正在做什么。
Look ahead, look behind
Bring the compressor’s detection action forward in time
practically impossible in an analogue signal path-or delay its action by up to 10ms to help transients to pop through.
You set the exact timing of the Look-ahead or Look-behind delay stages,
up to 20ms for the former or up to 10ms for the latter.
Look ahead, look behind
将压缩器的检测动作提前到时间上
这在模拟信号路径中几乎是不可能的，或者延迟其动作多达10毫秒，以帮助突出瞬态信号。
你可以设置 Look ahead 或 look behind 延迟阶段的确切时序，
前者最多为20毫秒，后者最多为10毫秒。
Powerful sidechain EQ
High-passing the sidechain is possible with Pulsar 1178, but so is a lot more, thanks to an entire sidechain EQ section.
Five filter types are available here,
as is band solo and sidechain audition to help perfectly tailor your signal and arrive at the ideal detection response.
强大的侧链 EQ
除了对侧链进行高通处理外，Pulsar 1178 还具有整个侧链 EQ 部分。
这里提供了五种滤波器类型，
以及带独奏和侧链试听功能，可帮助完美调整信号并获得理想的检测响应。
External sidechain
Pulsar 1178 allows to define an external sidechain input,
as all compressors should in the digital age.
This opens a very wide range of applications: ducking, de-essing, filtering the sidechain signal with your favourite EQ, or even applying dynamic processing.
外部侧链
Pulsar 1178 允许定义外部侧链输入，
正如数字时代的所有压缩器应该具备的功能。
这开启了广泛的应用范围：压制、去鼻音、使用喜爱的 EQ 对侧链信号进行滤波，甚至应用动态处理。
Advanced metering section
Gain reduction, input level and output level are all visible in different ways.
The scrolling gain reduction meter offers a view of gain reduction and the audio signal;
VU-style metering shows instantaneous gain reduction for both stereo channels;
and LED-style input, output and gain reduction is available to calibrate peak and RMS loudness.
先进的测量部分
增益减少、输入电平和输出电平以不同的方式可见。
滚动增益减少仪表可以查看增益减少和音频信号；
VU 式测量显示立体声通道的瞬时增益减少；
LED 式输入、输出和增益减少可用于校准峰值和 RMS 响度。
Smart GUI
Pulsar 1178 comes all wrapped up in a responsive and resizable interface.
Just drag the resize handle to set it to your preferred size, from nice and compact to highly visible.
What’s more, in most DAWs, loading Pulsar 1178 on a mono channel will open the plugin with a streamlined interface that shows only a single channel of operation.
