Drift Delay / Changelog

Changelog


1.1.0

A new panel: two worn steel rack units, with the echo map, filters and LFOs on screens.

  • The panel is redrawn in the same style as Mantissa, Agena and Swirl Chorus, as two rack units: the delay on top, the modulation underneath.
  • The window is landscape now, opening at 1125 by 825 pixels. Before, it was 880 by 1212 at 100 %, taller than a 1080p screen. It resizes from 55 % to 200 % of that, and a saved session keeps its size setting.
  • The echo map is a screen across the full width of the top unit.
  • Each filter draws its response on its own screen, and each LFO draws one cycle of its shape, with a dot where the LFO is now.
  • Needle meters on the input and the echoes, with the LIM lamp on the echo meter. The tempo shows on LED digits, lit while anything follows it.
  • The routing's source keys are labelled OFF, 1, 2 and ENV (LFO 1 and LFO 2 before).
  • Every control works as before. No changes to the sound, parameters, presets or saved sessions. Projects made with earlier versions load and sound the same.

1.0.2

Typing in the macOS VST3, and keys back to your host.

  • In VST3 hosts on macOS, you can now type a preset name when saving. Before, only shortcuts such as Cmd+V reached the name field.
  • Keyboard focus now stays only in a text field, so Return, Tab and the arrow keys go to your host. Before, in the AU and on Windows, a click could leave focus on a button or a knob's value box, which then took Return or the arrow keys, and Tab moved between controls.
  • No changes to the sound, presets or saved settings.

1.0.1

Signed Windows installer.

  • The Windows installer, plugins and standalone app are code-signed, so Windows names the publisher instead of warning about an unknown one.
  • No changes to the sound, presets or saved settings.

1.0.0

First public release.

  • Stereo delay with Tape, BBD and Digital models. Tape rolls off the high end on each repeat and adds a head bump; BBD darkens as the delay time rises; Digital keeps the delay line clean.
  • Two resonant ladder filters inside the feedback loop, so every repeat is filtered again. Low-pass and high-pass at 6, 12 or 24 dB/octave, plus band-pass, notch and all-pass, in series or parallel, with resonance that self-oscillates at the top of its range.
  • Reverse playback, with repeats alternating direction as the loop records its own output.
  • Pitch shifting on the regeneration only, up to 12 semitones either way, leaving the first echo at its original pitch.
  • Two LFOs, an envelope follower and an external sidechain input routed through a modulation matrix to delay time, either filter or wet level.
  • Tap tempo, host sync, ping-pong swing, freeze, diffusion and sidechain ducking.
  • 76 factory presets in ten categories, with search, favourites, A/B comparison and a Mix/trim lock.
  • VST3, AU, CLAP and standalone on macOS 11+ (Apple silicon and Intel); VST3, CLAP and standalone on Windows 10+ 64-bit.
