I've been having fun with this plugin!

One thing I've noticed: When you freeze the delay, you essentially have a repeating sample playing, right? I think it would be fun if we could drag that sample (the current buffer contents) out of Colour Copy and use it on its own. Would be a fun way to do sound design I think! (and also sort of function as a way to save frozen buffers)

I have bought this to use on Linux. Thanks for the ports and this delay is real tasty!

it's a little roundabout, but i've already considered doing that by bouncing the frozen output to a file and then trimming it by hand

Wow, Abique was fast on the linux update!!! He had mentioned
'next week'

I've been using the win version with my Fender Mustang amp
and various ampsims in wine, so I'll grab the new linux release next.
ColourCopy has a great fun-per-$ ratio.
Cheers

I changed the LED to blue, as I'll be using ColourCopy a lot
hosted in BlueCat's Axiom amp-sim, which sounds fantastic,
but the traditional green LED clashes a tiny bit with Axiom's
colours, and it's a good graphics learning experience.

In GIMP,
tools menu -->selection tools-->rectangle-select
click and hold in the upper left corner of the LED graphic,
drag to lower right corner and release

colors menu --> hue-chroma
drag the hue slider to the right
to get blue. Adjust brightness etc

There are many green indiviual elements in the CC images folders
to turn blue (or whatever choice) one by one, as desired
Cheers

If someone was bothered by the wooden sides, here is an example of a modification with GIMP.

This is entertaining, you can color code your Colour Copy presets by Colour Type.

Can you save favorites with a sound bank?

I like the gold! It goes well with the overall blend of gui elements
as well as with the standard LED.
Cheers

But how long would it be?

Also, you should probably just learn your DAW's resampling method

I don't think we'll be seeing this feature added, but it should be easily done with your DAW.

It's easy enough in DAW yeah, not quite as immediate though.

Also, it would make it much easier to get a perfectly looping sample.

It's not a feature I'm expecting to see but it would be nice I think, just a dumb idea I had

I don't know how those other delays work, but if they use the classic approach and if they have modulation, the modulation of delay time imprints on the feedback. This is like a doppler effect which can get pretty chaotic with some feedback. I'd say close to 100% of delay plug-ins work like that, including most of ours. In Colour Copy the content of the delay line is always untampered by such, no matter what the modulation. So once audio has entered the delay line, the modulation is synchonous for each feedback iteration to come. No randomly drifting doppler effects.

Also of course, the bucket brigade approach requires very steep filtering. Part of why CoCo isn't exactly a "crunchy" delay is its restricted bandwidth, as result of the filtering. The algorithms are very modern, but I guess this makes its tone rather vintage.

The ducking thing is as I said... if you duck a delay that gives room to a monophonic signal, you also duck the room away. In CoCo we leave the first taps unducked. This preserves the impression of space, while at the same time containing much of the mudd.

Thanks for giving more info in whats happening with the delay

i think it sums up well why it sounds different comparing to the others

Also is there a though for an update in the future to make delay filter/eq transparent or more controlable instead of picking colors? like a custom color with an EQ

Once I´ve started, an other suggestion for naming the colors - this time with the music-connection:

Type 1: Deep Purple
Type 2: Blueberry Hill
Type 3: Poison Ivy
Type 4: Green Day
Type 5: Sandstorm
