The Difference
What can ECO do for your sound? Listen to it for yourself.
A Modern Delay Playground
ECO gives you an incredibly fast way to shape the perfect delay for your tracks. It features two main views: a small and simple main view with immediate controls for timing, feedback, mix, delay mode, stereo width, ping pong routing and reverb send, and an advanced view where ECO stops being just a delay and becomes a creative tool whose final result is far better than the sum of its parts.
DRIVE decides how much attitude the echo has, while TONE and its filters decide where it sits in the mix. WIDTH and SPREAD decide how wide it should feel, whilst the modulation controls, DEPTH, DETUNE and RATE, shape the movement and character the repeats should show. Switch between CHORUS and VIBRATO to move from layered thickness to drifting pitch, then add TUBE saturation to the combined delay and reverb for another layer of colour. DUCK sets how politely it behaves around the source.
Reverb send, DECAY and DAMP can keep the repeats close, make them bloom behind the track or dissolve them into wide and emotional atmospheres. Send the repeats themselves into one of five reverb styles, SMOOTH, DENSE, LARGE, STUDIO and ECO, giving those atmospheres their own character.
ECO’s 12 modes offer a wide palette of textures to wrap around your sounds. Need something clean and in time? Start with CLEAN or DIGITAL. Want darker repeats that feel worn in? TAPE, OLD TAPE, ANALOG, BBD and LO-FI can get you there. SLAP keeps things short and immediate. For stereo movement, switch any mode to PING PONG and choose whether the first repeat starts on the left or the right. When the echo needs to become a characterful texture instead of a repeat, DIFFUSED, PHASEY and RICH MOD push ECO into wider, stranger and more animated territory, whilst QUARTZ folds the repeats into harmonically rich, resonant textures, with DRIVE pushing its wavefolding character further.
Meet RANDO, the fastest way to get out of your own habits. One click takes ECO in a completely new direction, giving you sounds and combinations you might never have thought of yourself. Keep LOCK on to preserve your mix and output level while browsing presets, and your mix and ducking while randomising. Output level is never randomised. Use A/B to compare two directions before deciding which one belongs in the track. Want to move even faster? Press N with keyboard shortcuts enabled and RANDO fires even with the advanced view closed.
In manual TIME mode, tap the ECO logo to set the delay by feel. Work in milliseconds or sync to your project, with dotted and triplet divisions, note values up to two bars and delay times reaching up to eight seconds. And if you feel like pushing things further, FEEDBACK can go all the way to 150% for proper self-oscillating madness.
We also love that you can change modes while the echoes are already playing, letting the existing repeats take on a completely new character instead of starting again from scratch.
ECO keeps its essential controls close at hand, so you can move quickly from a simple echo to a much more elaborate sound without losing the flow. Throw it on a synth. Fire it on a snare. Create a special texture for your vocals. Make a guitar trail go wide. Or turn a simple loop into an evolving texture: with ECO you can do it all.
ECO will be the delay you reach for again and again.
