Cooper Time Cube Revisited

AudioThing has released Echo Cube, a dual delay plugin inspired by the Cooper Time Cube, a rare analog delay system that achieved echo without tape or electronic delay circuits such as BBDs. The original unit created delay by sending audio through long coiled tubes, where time was defined by the physical propagation of sound through air. Here's more details from AudioThing...

Echo Cube recreates and expand this concept with two independent delay lines, A and B, each offering dedicated time, feedback, and level controls. Three models are available: Time Cube faithfully recreates the original hardware, while Garden Hose and Corrugated are experimental, DIY inspired variations designed for sound design, expanding on the physical principles of the original unit.

The delay lines can be combined using multiple routing modes, including serial, parallel, ping pong, mono sum, and mid/side, allowing precise control over delay interaction and stereo image shaping.

Echo Cube is available for macOS, Windows, and Linux (VST2, VST3, AU, AAX, CLAP).
It's also available on the App Store for iOS and iPadOS (AUv3 and Standalone).
