Frequently Asked Questions
It’s a convincing tape stop, capturing the gradual winding-down characteristic of vintage tape machines, not a harsh digital cut-off.
The CV controls modulate motor speed and feedback; it's compatible with most Eurorack or other CV-enabled modular systems to create dynamic, evolving delays.
While the delay capabilities are central, the reverb is beautifully warm and usable on its own; the 'Echo Off' mode prioritizes reverb and preamp functionality.
