💫 Creative Applications
Delayish Mode: Use low FX values for musical delays that evolve and breathe. Perfect for dub-style effects and ambient washes.
Texture Mode: Mid-range FX settings create lush granular beds. Great for thickening arrangements and adding movement.
Glitchy Mode: High FX values with this character create stuttering, fragmented effects perfect for electronic music and creative disruption.
Freeze + FX: Capture a moment with Freeze, then use the FX knob to stretch, pitch, and granulate that frozen audio infinitely.
