There is also the warm saturated ‘studio tape’ preset inspired by the Ampex ATR-102, half inch two track machine. You can really hear the different sonic signatures of these classic machines. In delay mode, you can have a mono, dual or ping-pong delay and rhythm echo. This is very handy as the original Space Echo couldn’t do a ping-pong delay. With the feedback, low cut and high cut filters controls, you can tailor the delay tails from a subtle echo to a crazy feedback dub effect. Timing is easy to dial in with buttons for time, note, dotted and triplet. For example, run a guitar through the ‘Studio Tape’ in this way and hey presto…we have a tape machine emulator! My producer friend told me a great tip, set the mix all the way to wet, turn feedback off and time to 0 and you can then use the different sonic models to change the flavour of your audio signal. With an emulation of CE-1 chorus, the rhythm echo feature and diffusion settings, this unit can also masquerade as a chorus, reverb, non-lin reverb and vibrato plugin.Īs with all the plugins, the preset menus are a pleasure to use. One click on the browser brings up a box with usable presets grouped into useful categories-like Vocal, Drums, Reverbs & Sound Design. There are many more features, well worth exploring in the demo version. Little EchoBoy is a scaled down version-but still packing the features.

Little AlterBoy does exactly what is says, it can make you sound like an alter boy with it’s pitch and formant processing. Pitch audio live +/- 1 octave, change the formant to make gender-warping sounds. Lock a vocal to a single pitch in robot mode or send in a midi signal to play in your own melodies. With warm saturation drive and dry/wet mix control, this simple plugin can produce a range of inspiring effects. The pitch-shifting, granular reverse echo of Crystallizer will transform your instruments into another dimension of sound.

Based upon a famous algorithm from the legendary Eventide H3000, this effect has been used on countless records to transform simple chords into epic soundscapes. Turn minimal guitar lines into shimmering, symphonic textures.
