A delay you can
actually see.Ping-Pong · Analog Echo
Ripple is a simple, beautiful stereo delay — tempo-synced or free, with analog-voiced repeats that fade a little darker each time. Watch where every echo lands on the live analyser, then reach for the one control I've never seen on a delay: a Width that pulls the ping-pong back toward the centre — plus pitch-shifting feedback for shimmer.
Watch every echo land
This is the real plug-in UI, running live. Grey is your input, cyan is the delay's own spectrum — so you can see the repeats and how Tone shapes them. Below, the stereo strip shows each echo ripple across the field; pull Width down and watch the ping-pong collapse to the centre.
Echo in ten seconds
Insert
Drop Ripple on an insert or a send — stereo in, stereo out. No routing, no fuss.
Set the time
Leave Sync on and pick a note division, or flip to free milliseconds. Then set Mix and Feedback.
Shape it
Roll Tone down for a darker analog tail, switch on Ping-Pong, and use Width to place the bounce.
An echo you can see
See where it lands
A live analyser draws your input against the delay's spectrum — and you can watch the echoes dip exactly where they'd mask the source, because the delay is spectrally unmasked against the dry so the original always leads.
Ping-pong you can centre
The trick I've not seen elsewhere: turn Width down and the hard L/R bounce is pulled inward to dead centre — and a built-in spectral unmask keeps the echoes out of the dry's way only where they'd actually clash.
Shimmer & pitch feedback
Switch on Pitch and every repeat is shifted again as it feeds back — octaves climb into shimmer, fifths and fourths cascade, a micro-detune drifts like tape — then bloom it all with a wet-only Reverb that never clouds the source.
Analog-voiced repeats
Feedback runs through a gentle high-cut and low-cut, so every repeat returns a little darker and softer — stacked echoes never pile up harsh.
Tempo-synced or free
Note divisions from 1/16 to 1/2 — dotted and triplet included — locked to the host, or flip Sync off for free milliseconds.
Stereo landing view
A dedicated stereo strip shows each echo as a ripple across the field, so you can feel the bounce and the Width at a glance.
