  1. 15:19Switched on over a simple strummed guitar part
  2. 17:25The reverb at the bottom of the panel, on its own first
  3. 18:11Separate dry and wet stages, with the dry mutable entirely
  4. 18:45Low-pass filter darkening only the repeats
  5. 20:07The three ratio sets: 2-3-4, gold and silver, based on prime numbers
  6. 21:16Cosmic looper preset, pushing regen and delay length into looping

What it does

A stereo delay built from four independent delay lines rather than a single tap, with three ratio sets that space those lines using prime number, gold and silver calculations. A large stereo reverb sits at the end of the chain, and separate dry and wet levels let the source be muted so only the processed signal comes through. Stereo modulation, a low-pass filter on the repeats and regen fill out the rest, and every parameter is exposed for host LFOs.

In the demo

Jade puts it on a plain strummed guitar and works from the bottom of the panel up, starting with the reverb before the delay controls. She runs the presets, including a near-looping cosmic looper setting, and ends on the randomizer.

Worth knowing

It is not built for tempo-synced dotted eighths and triplets, so anyone after a straight ping-pong will want something else. Also sold inside a $3.99 Delay Suite with PanDualay and AUDelay.
