I see. I'm not going to rub it in. But the time base is probably the most important function of this plugin. It makes absolutely no sense to me that the core of the plugin has the most limited control. I would rather skip or shrink other areas of the GUI than the heart of the delay itself.
So I would like to encourage you one last time to add as many as possible control options for the time base (cp. Soundtoys Echoboy).

Not sure what you mean here. Without modifiers, the handles should move in 1% steps. You can snap to notes with one modifier (alt on windows) and you can fine move the handles using shift and drag. Lastly, mouse wheel works fine as well, also keeping 1% steps.
Hi, thanks for the response William, I was away from my studio computer when I made the post, and I had therefore mis-remembered some of how the plugin actual worked :) But in any case, what I was looking for is the ALT modifier for Snapping to Notes, great. I overlooked that when I was playing with the plugin, great to know it's there, thanks!

I tried it on an old HP Compaq dc5800 PC with an Intel Core 2 Duo 8400 and it worked great. :)
I especially liked the saturation sound, and the colors do make a huge difference. :tu:

I recorded a bit of guitar through it and through a reverb plugin.

PS: The previous reply was me. This is my old account I managed to recover. :P

Not sure if it's been mentioned in the last 20 pages, but what I like about the time adjustment UI is that while you can use a modifier to snap to notes, by default it doesn't snap to notes. So it's very quick and visual to drag a slider to "approximately" 1/8th or whatever, which encourages not-quite-exact delay times. Which is a plus, in my view, since almost all delay plugins snap to notes by default, and if you want to be a bit more organic you have to use ms and adjust by ear, which is a pain. So, I like that. :)

Another thought, this time from a guitar-y session - the lower reaches of the Mix knob aren't very subtle. It seems to go from "off" to "initial taps not noticeably quieter than the dry signal" immediately. I want to mix it so that the delay is just-audible, to sit back unobtrusively behind the dry signal (easy with my pedals). I'm finding this difficult. Setting the saturation knob differently doesn't seem to affect this behaviour.
Sure, I could put Colour Copy on a parallel channel, but then what's the point of a mix knob at all? :D

I just checked the delay out. At first, I wasn't all that excited about it (seeing that there are plenty delay effects that basically are the same), but after playing with it. I'm SUPER IMPRESSED! Especially the ducking feature and the feedback colouration module. TOTALLY IN A LEAGUE OF ITS OWN! Other notable feature is the cross over function. Very fun to play with and a nice looking GUI.

The only other delay I know of this deep is the guitar pedal (Red Panda Particle). Only other delay I've actually liked for creating different types of one shots.

Great job guys impressed and spreading the word on my YouTube channel asap.

Is a mono>stereo AAX version in the works? Right now it seems to be only mono or stereo. Otherwise works great in Pro Tools and sounds nice.

I have a BF2 but, despite trying, I haven't succeeded in copying it with CC. Then again, I haven't succeeded in copying the BF2 with any other flanger I own, software or hardware. I have made some very nice flanger sounds with CC, though. It's certainly no slouch in this department.

That's where I'm at. Nothing so far has hit the sweet spot for me, although things sound fantastic.

I agree!

Does anyone have a EH memory man that has compared to this? I've never heard a good enough emulation to old school BBDs so I'm curious.. I was planning on plugging my guitar to test it out but curious if others have already done it :)

I have one! I'll see if i will be able to make a vs. in the next few days. I'm curious about this too. :)

Maybe just me, but I would love the main (green) window to change colour to reflect the chosen feedback colouration type. Good for visual feedback and general trippyoffyourtittiness. Love the vibes that this generates.

As some feature request - square and S&H would be good addition to his modulation section.
