BELAY – is a Max for Live delay effect with a sound design approach that explores the versatility of delay and feedback manipulation. The device allows a wide range of effects. From simple FM, pitchshift and resonator effects to complex grain delays and heavy feedback drones.
Main Features
Delay time spread and reverse
Dynamic Feedback distortion and stereo routing
Dynamic Feedback distortion and stereo routing
Dynamic LFO shapes with stereo spread and smoothing
Frequency Modulation (FM)
Pitch shift and pitch randomization
Window Manipulation
Simple shelf filter
Morph filter with dynamic routing
The base structure of the device is based on windowing. Windowing means that the delayed signal is broken down into grains that are overlapped and crossfaded to maintain continuous transitions. This technique allows dynamic modulations of the delay time without affecting the pitch and effects such as real-time pitch shifting, reverse and grain delay. The extensive LFO section gives the possibility to heavily modulate the delay time and create complex sonic results. Dynamic stereo routing and distortion inside the feedback chain coupled with a shelving filter and a morph filter allows you to further drastically shape the sound.
