Cupwise FX Sooper Time Tube + BBD delay/reverb Nebula Library-ARCADiA

This collection includes effects sampled from three sources. The ‘Time Tube’ unit passes audio through lengths of hose using speakers and pickups, to produce a delay of a few milliseconds, creating a Haas ‘doubling’ effect where the delay isn’t heard as a distinct echo, but instead blends with the dry signal in a way that thickens the sound. Some people love it for vocals. The delay actually comes from the amount of time it takes the sound to travel through the hose. It offers stereo and mono modes, which are different. I’ve sampled both.

The other effects were sampled from two home stereo system units: the Pioneer SA60, and the Sansui SA-710. They were both designed to add ambience to the music you play on your system, using bucket brigade delay chips. The SA60 can do a really nice ‘duet’ effect, which is a short delay good for doubling, similar to the ‘Time Tube’ effect.

Both of those units also attempt to produce ‘reverb’, which is just a simple BBD delay with feedback, and doesn’t really sound like a real space, but can be interesting on some sources.

I’ve also made some programs from the graphic EQs on the Sansui unit. They’re simple and allow you to adjust tone with one knob. The main draw with this release is obviously the ‘Time Tube’ effect, but the BBD effects and the EQ/tone programs make nice bonuses.
