NEW Plugin: Echo Cube.

Our take on the Cooper Time Cube, one of the strangest delay devices ever made.

Before getting our hands on the actual hardware, we built a few custom Time Cube style units ourselves. Different tube lengths, different materials, different assemblies. We wanted to understand how it really behaves, how the sound propagates through the tube, how reflections interact.

So yes, there was garden hose involved.

We measured, recorded, compared, tweaked, rebuilt, and only then started modeling it properly.

Echo Cube recreates that mechanical delay concept in software, with extra flexibility and control.

And we are not done. We will keep experimenting with the concept, so we will add more models in the future.

Available now on macOS, Windows, Linux, and iOS.

Pro tip: If you ever get your hands on a real one, open the main box only when it is lying flat.
It is packed with polystyrene for insulation.
Otherwise you will redecorate your studio.
Don’t ask how we know.

We just wanted to say thank you. Your support, feedback, and curiosity keep us inspired every day. We’re quietly building some new plugins behind the scenes and we’re really looking forward to sharing them with you soon. Wishing you calm days, good sounds, and a great start to the new year.
