tape delayz
Does anyone know of a tape delay plugin that can self oscillate but not mess with your 'undo'?
I have arcDev's Dubb Box. It sounds amazing and very realistic but the problem is that it produces a continual parameter change (I'm assuming it's the tape warble effect), which floods the undo history and prevents undoing anything else in the project until after the delay has trailed out to silence.
I've heard the one for the UA-1 card is good, but that is an expensive road to travel. If anyone knows of something comparable please let me know....and yes I've tried the free Space Echo emulator. It doesn't sound nearly as good as the Dubb Box (mainly because I don't think it self-oscillates).

Re: tape delayz
hmm...the website says "4ms to 2000ms delay time". I'm assuming that means it can't feedback forever?

Re: tape delayz
think hard and you'll find the flaw in your theory.
hint: an unlimited delay time would mean, well, no repeating delay ever.

Re: tape delayz

no.
actually it stops feedbacking exactly one loop iteration before infinity.
but because of the concept of infinity you will not notice that.

This one is super too & it's donationware (not a universal binary though -very sad...)

Re: tape delayz
I have Dubstation - it's good value for money, but not in the same league as the UAD-1 plugin, nor the Roland Boss footpedal, and even the one included in Guitar Rig 3 is coolio.
