electribe es1 delay

Post by honsey » Thu Mar 13, 2008 6:58 pm

hej!

i'm working on a set in live7 to "virtualize" my electribe. i transform all the incoming mididata from the electribe with pd and send it back to live7. together with my bcr2000 i have a very cool setup now and i want to add a delay like the electribe one to my master, because you can make very cool "glitchy" sounds with it, when you change the delaytime.

but the live7 delays won't sound like that. is there a (free) vstfx which can do the job (for mac)?

thanks in advance.

why wont Live's delays sound like that??
The ER1's delay is just a wet level & delay time (either tempo synced or not)

Simple delay + automation does that just fine.

yes. but the artefacts while changing the delay-time sound very different. (electribe: glitchy & nice pitch-effects, live: crackling noise...)

@honsey: are you sure that u don't use the "modulation-delay" in the korg electribe? a simple-delay is a simple-delay and should sound more or less identical.......

other cool vst-delays:

Dynamically changing the delay time on on an Electribe is completely smooth as you're changing the speed that you scan through the delay buffer with. In Live's Simple delay, you change the size of the buffer, so you get ugly glitches instead of lovely pitching effects.

I think that's what OP means at least.

Suit #2: No, sir, he says he does this sort of thing for fun.

yes. thank you – thats what i ment. you can get these very cool pitcheffect if you increase the delay-time

i don't understand why it's so smooth with the electribe, but so crackling using abletons plugins.

Just different ways of implementing delay time, there's no standard or 'right' way to do it, thus some sound different than others. Perhaps you could look into a 3rd party delay like PSP's 42.

Any free analouge delay simulation would do the job.

yeah, the delay on the er1 is pretty cool.
if you're on pc the go for the interruptor plugs.
they're pretty similar

Put your mind to it and create a rack of multiple delays. you could easily create the electribes delay i think

honsey, your search might end here:

audiodamages dubstation

does almost the same pitching as the electribe.
give it a try, you'll love it.
