Quantum Delay
Picture this: A classic stereo delay with feedback, a vintage treasure for the ages, now fused with the most transcendent, mind-bending modulation system you’ve ever encountered!
Delay: Dive into the heart of time manipulation using either the retro Tape mode or the modern super-clean Fade mode. Seamlessly toggle between BPM synchronization, even 5-tuplets, or use any time in ms. Use the Fine control for pushing / dragging micro-timings or modulate your delay lines like never before.
Filter: Nested within the feedback path, switchable lowpass, highpass, and bandpass filters empower you to beautifully sculpt your echos. Easily add modulation for unique dynamic movement and depth.
Feedback: Define the intensity in conventional percent or our modern dB/s approach. Use crossfeed for classic ping pong delay style effects. Increase the intensity by using the over-feedback mode to build up your echos beyond infinity.
Each section can be toggled between stereo and dual mono for even more interesting stereo effects and control. Use our parameter randomisation feature to explore the plugin’s sound at random. And if that’s not enough use our next-level modulation system to modulate pretty much everything using LFOs & Random Generators (also in 2D!), Envelope Followers, Macros and even dynamic chaotic systems.
Inject a burst of unpredictability with our dynamic parameter randomisation feature. Evolve your sound in three stages – gentle change, medium change, and fully random. Choose which parameters to transform, and save these unpredictable sonic journeys in presets for endless inspiration. So whether you are searching for slight variations of a few parameters or you want to explore the full parameter space at random – we got you covered.
Our revolutionary modulation system, seamlessly integrated for your convenience. It offers simplicity in operation, allowing you to effortlessly modulate any parameter with precision. With the flexibility to customize modulation depth individually for each parameter you have complete control over your desired effects. Each modulator offers a skewable amount, sample and hold, and unipolar/bipolar functionality.
Unleash your creativity with an array of built-in generators, including LFOs, Random Generators, and even a custom LFO that empowers you to draw your own unique shapes. Additionally, our comprehensive collection of followers, such as Amp Follower, Pitch Follower, and advanced Spectral Followers like Spectral Brightness, enable dynamic and responsive modulation like never before. Finally, we added 2D modulators like 2D LFO, 2D Random, and 2D Strange Attractors so you can even use chaotic dynamic systems as a modulation source.

MagicBlur
MagicBlur is a multi-curve spectral blur and freeze effect with a built-in modulation system. Turn your samples into a synthesiser to create lush atmospheric sounds, endless worlds of overtone glissandi, crazy reversed and glitch-like sounds – it’s all there! Easily and quickly apply separate blur times per frequency, or ranges of frequencies. Mix them, modulate them, spread them, run wild, and create original spectral transformations from subtle reverberish washed out sounds to extreme effects on the brink of insanity.
MagicBlur has various elements.
Blur & Freeze
Spectral Blur describes the process of taking spectral snapshots and morphing between them. Optionally you can deactivate the morphing part and turn the whole thing into a spectral freezer. And if that’s not cool enough (no pun intended) you can even reverse the morph direction, apply envelopes and shift the pitch to create unique sounding effects never heard before.
Curve Editor
Controlling thousands of blur times sounds complicated, but we made this process really simple. At the heart of MagicBlur is the Curve Editor where you can draw up to 4 separate curves and fluently morph between them using the adjacent XY pad.
Syncing
Sync your blur times to your DAW is quick and easy. In just a few seconds you can have, for example, a regular eighth blur for the low-mids and a dotted eighth blur for the highs, or any other combination you can think of!
Modulating
A great plugin needs a great modulation system. Just open up the modulation panel by clicking on an empty modulation slot and get going with a few quick clicks!
The modulation system offers a large range of modulation sources:
- LFOs
- Custom LFO
- Random generators
- Envelope followers (amplitude, pitch, brightness, and more)
- Camera
In addition, the followers can bet set to respond to side-chain inputs. Do you want to modulate the pitch of your lead track by using the brightness of your drum track? No problem in our modulation system.
It’s all there and very quick and easy to use.
MagicPitch
MagicPitch is a multi-curve spectral pitch and frequency shifter with a built-in modulation system. De-tune harmonics, fatten up your drums, create otherworldly vocals – it’s all there! Easily and quickly apply separate pitch and frequency shifting per frequency, or ranges of frequencies. Mix them, modulate them, spread them, run wild, and create original frequency transformations from subtle de-tunings to extreme effects on the brink of insanity.
MagicBlur has various elements.
Curve Editor
Controlling thousands of pitch and frequency shifters sounds complicated, but we made this process really simple. At the heart of MagicPitch is the Curve Editor where you can draw up to 4 separate curves and fluently morph between them using the adjacent XY pad.
Pitch vs Frequency Shifting
Pitch Shifting describes the process of scaling all frequencies of a sound by a common factor while retaining the harmonic relationships.
Frequency Shifting, on the other hand, adds a common frequency amount to all frequencies, changing the harmonic relationship of its harmonics.
MagicPitch can even do both at the same time! But that’s not all. Using the CurveEditor you are in control of thousands of pitch and frequency shifters so you can edit your sound in every detail. At the same time you can quickly adjust the overall sound using the Pitch Offset, Frequency Offset, Balance and FX Amount. For example, in just a few seconds you can shift the low-mids up by 1 Octave while shifting the highs down by 1 Octave, or any other combination you can think of!
Modulating
A great plugin needs a great modulation system. Just open up the modulation panel by clicking on an empty modulation slot and get going with a few quick clicks!
In addition, the followers can bet set to respond to side-chain inputs. Do you want to modulate the pitch of your lead track by using the brightness of your drum track? No problem in our modulation system.
MagicDelay
MagicDelay is a professional, studio grade, spectral delay effect. Spectral because it allows the effect amount to be controlled per-frequency as if you had thousands of delays combined into one. Something not possible in the analogue world. Controlling thousands of delay times sounds complicated, but we made this process really simple. At the heart of MagicDelay is the Curve Editor where you can draw up to 4 separate curves and fluently morph between them using the adjacent XY pad. The final morphed curve can be inverted, shifted, and skewed for further creative control. The delay features two feedback types, control of the amount of feedback, and high and low pass filters.
Sync your delay times to your DAW when used in AUv3 supporting apps such as GarageBand is quick and easy. In just a few seconds you can have, for example, a regular eighth delay for the low-mids and a dotted eighth delay for the highs, or any other combination you can think of!
A great delay needs a great modulation system. In the modulation panel tap on an empty modulation slot and get going. Tap the mapping button to enter mapping mode and choose which controls above should be modulated.
MagicFilter
MagicFilter is a multi-curve spectral filter and equalizer workstation with a built-in modulation system.
MagicFilter allows you to shape and filter audio using curves, just like a conventional EQ, but with far more creative potential. Thanks to its powerful modulation system, you can create dynamic, evolving filter shapes and movements that are impossible with traditional plugins.
