Outward - Time Stretch / Audio Sample and Hold

Thu Dec 08, 2016 12:19 am

Outward is a weird delay and time stretching sampler. There are two modes, timestretch and delay. Each of these modes has three further sub-modes

Time Stretch

1 second of audio is recorded into the buffer. Playback is triggered by stepping on the footswitch.

Mode 1 - forward stretch http://soundcloud.com/tom-majeski/forward-stretch
Mode 2 - ping pong stretch (plays forward then reverse) http://soundcloud.com/tom-majeski/ping-pong-stretch
Mode 3 - reverse stretch

Delay Modes

The first two delay modes sample your audio and hold the sample for a duration set by the speed knob. For these two modes the footswitch allows the user to freeze the audio in the delay memory.

In envelope mode, audio is recorded when the input signal goes above a certain threshold and plays back indefinitely or until the envelope is triggered again. The footswitch in envelope mode turns the sensitivity all the way down so no incoming audio can overwrite the audio in the delay memory.

Mode 1 - Smooth http://soundcloud.com/tom-majeski/smooth
Mode 2 - Choppy http://soundcloud.com/tom-majeski/stretchy-2
Mode 3 - Envelope

this pedal is a collaboration with MacroMachines, he proved a ton of assistance for the coding of the time stretch. Check out his stuff, really cool if youre into synthesizer modules

There was an ongoing joke where people would call their pedals granular and they weren't. LOL

Sorry figured you would have remembered, but it was a while back. :)

Your stuff is always so cool.

This sounds verrrrry interesting.

How long is the buffer/memory? How much can that be stretched? 2x as long as the original? 5x? How do you go about resetting the buffer? Would there be a hold function so you could rrrrrreeeeeeeaaaaaaaaalllllllllyyyyyyyy stretch out one section before resetting the buffer?

Neither trying to tell you what to do nor really expecting a full answer, just really, really psyched that this could be real.
