Cupwise Tube Delay Station

Slap back delays, repeating echoes, static flange, doubling, short feedback reverbs, distortion; all of this and more is possible with the Tube Delay Station. Delay times range from .2ms to 1.884 seconds, with choices in increments between .2 to 4ms, depending on the time range.

The delay itself can be set to any of 63 different sampled tones, each with different frequency response profiles. Many filter the lows and/or highs in various ways, but some are almost perfectly flat, so there's a lot of variety. There are also 9 sampled distortions you can combine with the main tones, for some subtle thickening, noticeable grit, or complete destruction.

When using feedback along with a tone selection that filters the input, the repeating echoes get filtered more and more with each repeat. This can be used to produce evolving sonic textures and washes of sound. The pan control allows panning of the delay, and of course with feedback, each repeat moves further and further away from the center.

I created the special 'pan wiggle' control, which allows you to introduce an amount of random pan wiggling. The delay will randomly move around the position where you set the main pan control. There's a 'wiggle rate' control that sets the rate at which the delay will jump to the next random pan position.
