Scrambled Cassette Delay

US EKKO blends lo-fi charm with unpredictable behaviour      01/08/25

SoundGhost has released Ekko, a AU/VST3 effect plugin for MacOS & Windows that they describe as a scrambled cassette delay. Here's the details in their own words...

Introducing EKKO, a cassette-inspired delay plugin that blends lo-fi charm with unpredictable sonic movement. From warm, saturated echoes to warped, chaotic reflections, EKKO brings a nostalgic texture combined with modern sound design.

But Ekko is more than a traditional delay. Ekko's unique 'Scramble' feature, inspired by our Jumble sampler, randomly shifts the delay playhead in sync with your DAW, creating fragmented rhythms and scattered ambient trails. Add Fade for tremolo-like motion or to help smooth transitions. With a new 'weighted' ping-pong that's unique to Ekko, cassette-style degradation, and clean 12dB filters, EKKO invites both control and chaos.

Scramble, freeze, flip, and deconstruct your delays – EKKO is more than a delay. It's a beautifully broken memory machine.
