  • Adjustable time, feedback, and level
  • Serial, parallel, ping pong routing
  • Mono sum and mid-side processing
  • Stereo image shaping
Features
Read full description

Echo Cube is a dual delay inspired by the Cooper Time Cube, a rare analog unit that created echo using long coiled tubes instead of tape or electronic circuits. The delay time was defined by the physical travel of sound through air. Echo Cube recreates and expands this concept with two independent delay lines, each with time, feedback, and level controls. Choose between Time Cube for authentic hardware tone, or the experimental Garden Hose and Corrugated models for creative sound design. Flexible routing modes including serial, parallel, ping pong, mono sum, and mid side give you full control over delay interaction and stereo image shaping.

About

BLEASS Spectral Resonator

Transform audio by manipulating its frequency content to create unique spectral textures and resonances. Generate complex harmonic sounds from internal tone generators or MIDI input, with deep control over pitch, timbre, and spectral filtering.

Highlights
  • Spectral domain audio conversion
  • Frequency shifting, blurring, and filtering
  • Internal tone generator and MIDI input
  • Up to eight voices of polyphony
  • Detailed control over resonance parameters
  • Interactive 3D spectrogram visualization
  • Freeze and Kill controls
Read full description

By converting audio into the spectral domain, BLEASS Spectral Resonator can shift, blur, filter, and restructure the frequency content of any sound before generating resonances. When blended with the source signal, this adds a controllable layer of pitch and timbre. Used fully wet, it produces rich and complex spectral textures. Resonances can be generated from an internal four-voice tone generator or directly from incoming MIDI notes. With up to eight voices of polyphony, glide, pitch bend, and up to 256 harmonics per voice, BLEASS Spectral Resonator can be played from MIDI to create tuned harmonic resonances and evolving spectral textures. Intuitive controls provide detailed manipulation of the resonator behaviour, including unison, detuning, harmonic stretching, density, damping, decay, and harmonic filtering. Harmonics can be restricted to even or odd series, while spectral shifting and blurring further reshape the resulting resonances. A spectral-domain filter lets you select the frequency range used to excite the resonators. The interactive 3D spectrogram visualises resonator activity over time while also providing direct control over the spectral filter. BLEASS Spectral Resonator also includes Freeze and Kill controls for holding or clearing active resonances. Designed to combine deep spectral processing with an accessible interface, it opens new possibilities for harmonic, rhythmic, and dynamic sound design, including inharmonic or atonal material such as drums. BLEASS Spectral Resonator is also available for Desktop. Find more information here: http://www.bleass.com/spectral-resonator
