Cascade is a versatile reverb and diffusion processor with an experimental edge. Designed first and foremost with expansive modulated supernatural spaces in mind, it features an extensive set of controls to explore other sonic territories such as stereo widening, transient smearing, hybrid delay/reverb and chorus/flanger/resonator-like effects.

At its core, Cascade uses a chain, or cascade, of 24 allpass delay (a.k.a. allpass diffuser) stages for each of the left and right channels. Each of these stages smears and diffuses the incoming signal a bit, and chaining enough of these together results in a lengthy and diffuse reverberation effect. A notable feature of the allpass delay is its ability to produce various kinds of non-exponential responses, which works great for out-of-this-world effects like blooming and super long reverberation.

Now, this structure can sound somewhat static if allpass delay times are constant, so Cascade employs a randomized modulation scheme where each of the delay times is modulated by a dedicated LFO that is purposefully out of sync with others, thus adding a sense of motion to the sound.

Last but not least, Cascade incorporates a feedback loop around the entire chain, making infinite reverb and delay-infused diffusion textures possible. The feedback loop is complemented by damping filters to modify the frequency response over time.

That seems really nice. A steal for $19.

Just realized it's by the same person who did Velvet Machine, another great one.

Hi

Really nice demo video - and really nice pricing!

Velvet Machine, his first Release was already very cool. This one seems in the same Vein, yet also way more complex. Otherworldly sounds for the world.

Tried, very good for such price, and zero cpu usage.
The only thing, that "transport stops tail" way.
I'd vote for optionally disable it.

Maybe just drop him a short line?

This is seriously cool, and it broke through my "I have too many delays and I keep buying them anyway" resistance.

Yep, definitely applicant for that bummer.

Sounds lovely, and nicely priced too.

Very nice! I think it stands out from some of my related effects in that the controls modulate smoothly and usefully, allowing for easier and different kinds of manipulation of the sound.
