What BLEASS Tides does
Tides is organized around a delay section that the developer describes as a fluid approach to delay processing, in which delay times can be changed without the unpleasant warping associated with conventional delays. The input stage uses a filter that combines low-pass and high-pass resonant bands, so the incoming signal can be shaped before it reaches the delay line. Delay Tab controls manage the low-pass and high-pass filtering applied to the input.
The feedback path contains five insert slots for effects, and the developer lists distortion, filters, pitch and frequency shifting, ring modulation and additional delay as options for those slots. The modulation system is built on BLEASS’s latest technology, and the interface is based on the v2 engine with a redesigned layout. The plugin is available as VST3, AU, AAX and Standalone for Windows and macOS, and a trial is offered.
Key features
- Fluid delay time changes. Delay times can be altered in the fluid delay processing without the warping that the developer associates with conventional delays.
- Input filter. A resonant filter combining low-pass and high-pass bands lets the incoming signal be shaped before it enters the delay.
- Delay Tab filtering. The Delay Tab provides low-pass and high-pass filtering applied to the input.
- Modulation system. An enhanced modulation system, based on BLEASS’s latest technology, moves the delay character over time.
- Feedback insert slots. The feedback path holds five insert slots for distortion, filters, pitch and frequency shifting, ring modulation or extra delay.
- V2 engine interface. The plugin uses BLEASS’s v2 engine and a reimagined interface design with a clean, crisp layout.
Use cases
- Shaping the delay input. The input filter and Delay Tab filtering can narrow the band that enters the delay line before repeats are generated.
- Feedback processing. Insert effects in the feedback path can alter each repeat with distortion, pitch shifting or ring modulation.
Compatibility
Tides is available as VST3, AU, AAX and Standalone for Windows 10 and macOS 10.9 or later in 64-bit builds, with native Apple Silicon support listed. The product has a trial.
Who it is for
Producers and mix engineers who want delay repeats that can be reshaped in the input and in the feedback path, and sound designers who work with modulated delay times.
