Dual Delay With Effects And Modulation

Be Good Audio has announced the release of Time Razor, which they describe as a creative versatile dual delay with integrated effects and modulation. They tell us that Time Razor is available now for Windows as a VST3 plugin, but a Mac version is coming soon. Here's the details in the company's own words...

Time Razor is not just another delay – Time Razor has some colorful tricks up its sleeve that can boost your creativity. These include:

It has 2 controllable delay time transition modes, repitch and fade, which enable users to create a unique sonic character. Fade mode can sound  soft, hard or destructive when changing delay time. Avoid artifacts, unless you push it high. In repitch mode user can control the speed it repitch when changing delay time, and achieve e.g. wild tape effects. Repitch and Fade mode are widely implemented in other delay plugins, but Time Razor puts users in control of how
it does it.

In Parallel mode, each delay line has separate ducking settings, making it easy to create dynamic effects such as fading up one delay line before the other.

It has unique level mix control of the delay lines.  In serial mode, levels of delay line 1 and 2 can be mixed so that the first can also be heard, which is not typically possible with other delay plugins. In Parallel mode, only delay 2level is set. This kind of control gives users more freedom to control how the second delay lines are mixed with the first delay line.

It offers a fast workflow. Time Razor has many functions that can be accessed via the submenu. To avoid constantly switching between UI windows, we have made it easy to mix and add effects to your sound from the global top menu. You only need to access other UI windows if you need to do deeper customization.

key features:

      Single, Ping Pong, Dual Serial, and Dual Parallel.
    • 2 different controllable time transition modes: Repitch and Fade.

    • Option to add Chorus, Phaser, Bit Crusher and Reverb to the feedback path

    • 1 multi-mode filter in the feedback path or to both dry/wet audio, for
      further enhancing the sonic character.
    • Processing in stereo with independent left/right repeat time and feedback
      for each delay line.
    • Possibility to sync delay times to the host tempo.
    • Stereo tools to control spatial width.
    • Processing in M/S stereo mode.
    • Shape the delay lines with lowpass, highpass filters in the feedback path.
