Additional resonance and automated sweeping yield the characteristic effect that sounds best applied to harmonically rich signals. 5. phlanger (stereo) rate / depth / feedback 1. classic (stereo) manual / rate / feedback 6.
glitch glitch is a bank full of unusual time and frequency based effects simulating various defects of digital audio equipment, from lost sync, through buffer underrun, speed errors, modulation channel crosstalk, lost carrier up to a completely broken transmitter. 5. env_mod (stereo) sens / bend / buffer Envelope-controlled buffer underrun effect (occuring mostly in loud segments of the signal) with additional buffer legth being modulated by the envelope for unusual pitch bends. 1.
granular A bank of effects producing sound „granules” from short portions of the input signal, rearranged in time and scattered in the stereo field. of a reverb. The parameters control rate/ size of granules, filtering the low end and length of the reverb tail. 1. smooth (mono to stereo) latch / size / random 5. reverser (stereo) time / depth / feedback A classic granular effect with 4 simultaneous granules sampled from a 1sec mono buffer and shaped with a smooth (sine-like) envelope.
parallax A bank of new type of effects based on pairs of slightly detuned delay lines (usually in stereo configuration). emphasizing phase cancellation effects. 5. rand_mod (stereo) time / feedback / mod_dpth 1. mono–st (mono to stereo) time / feedback / skew A stereo version of the parallax effect with two randomly modulate delay lines. An inverted feedback yields alternative phase cancellation pattern. The basic parallax effect with two delay lines and mono input.
phaser phaser is a bank of classic effects using notch filtering. Based on simulated analog allpass filters, or delay lines, these effects color the sound by introducing multiple notches in the frequency range (combining the original and phase delayed signal). Additional resonance parameters yield audible formants between notches. 5. manual (stereo) left / right / res A „manual” stereo phaser with left and right channel modulation available separately on two parameters. 6.
pitch pitch is a bank of transpose effects, mostly based on the hardware capabilities of the Spin FV-1 chip. Continuous and quantized shifters, additional chorus or pitch modulation, chords, feedbacks—it’s all here. 5. chrd1+fb (stereo) chord / xfade / feedback A stereo chord generator based on sets of fixed pitch intervals. The parameters control: chord type (major, minor, diminished, augmented, flatV, sus2, sus4, V+oct, V-oct), cross-fade between chord voices, and amount of glissandi-spawning feedback.

tap-temp Time-based rhythmic effects synchronized to an external clock (tap-tempo style). Stereo programs use first parameter as the clock input (note: slider sets threshold). Mono ones use right audio input for the clock, and allow setting a tempo division or multiplication with the first parameter. note: bar length is clipped when it exceeds the available range. 5. dual_m (dual mono) tap_l / feedback / tap_r A dual mono tap tempo delay (up to 0.
