K7D vs Sunnandaeg

K7D is a powerful and affordable, vintage tape delay effect plugin for iOS. K7D recreates the hardware echo machines of the past using Imaginando’s signature style of obsessive analog emulation, but with an enhanced level of control from a sleek, modern interface. Using this approach allows a whole new world of creative possibilities, while still retaining a warm, full-bodied analog sound, bursting with character and personality. To give K7D it’s distinctive analog flavour, we studied and analysed the tiny details of what makes classic hardware delays great, and painstakingly recreated every subtle nuance for a fantastically authentic sound. Available as a standalone app and audio unit plugin, you can use it digital audio stations for iOS such as Garage Band, AUM, Cubasis, Auria, Audiobus, etc. Features - 1ms to 1 sec. dual playhead analog modeled delay with noise, tape distortion and mechanical vibration models - Modeled microphone input with pre-amp saturation - Normal and Ping Pong modes - Optimized gain staging and saturation algorithms for very musical results - Delay time spread between heads and stereo width control - High pass and Low pass filter on feedback path - Powerful LFO bipolar time modulation with multiple waveforms (sine, triangular, saw, square, sample and hold and filtered sample and hold) and possibility of inverted LFO phase on second play head (for added stereo imaging) - Delay time syncable with BPM - Possibility of delay time modulation via incoming midi notes - Oscilloscope visualisation of audio waveform and LFO waveform - Built-in patch manager - Audiounit compatible

Sunnandæg is a single-voice instrument. One sine oscillator runs through three folding stages, and the end of that chain is wired back into the oscillator's pitch, sync and FM. There is no keyboard and no sequencer. You play it with four XY pads, the camera, and the tilt of the device. Raise the feedback and the folding starts folding itself, and the same gesture stops giving the same answer. SIGNAL Three folding stages: a squaring drive, a triangle wave folder, a full-wave rectifier. Their order can be swapped. A feedback network of three lines, each taking a stage output, the filter, the resonant EQ, or white or pink noise, and sending it back into a folding stage. FILTER Twin Peak — two resonant peaks with their own positions, range and band mode. Push Q far enough and the filter sings on its own. Rez EQ — eight resonators on fixed frequencies from 60 Hz to 9.8 kHz, each driven by its own source, able to feed both itself and the oscillator. MODULATION A sample and hold with a slope output and a comparator gate. An eight-stage shift register with a stepped three-tap mode. Two LFOs, the camera, and tilt. Every source chooses its own destination: pitch, filter, any folding stage, feedback or pan. EFFECTS Delay, reverb, phaser and chorus, each with two parameters and a modulation source, plus a random switcher. MICRO SOUND Record through the microphone and play the material back in grains, mixed against the dry voice. ALSO Twelve preset slots. A gesture recorder that replays your pad movements. MIDI in and out. An eight-band EQ, a compressor, a leveller and an output ceiling. Nothing leaves the device. The app makes no network connections at all.
