FabFilter Timeless 2 Delay

The ultimate sound mangling machine from the creatives at FabFilter. 

What it is:
A perfectly modeled classic tape delay with chorus, phaser, and flange capabilities.  

How we use it:
Add dizzying movement and modulation to a mix. 

Why it's cool:
Per-channel phase inversion takes the already excessive capabilities of this unit a step further. 

FabFilter Timeless 2 is not only a perfectly modelled classic tape delay. Its unique high-quality filters and many creative options turn it into the ultimate sound-mangling machine! Create echo, chorus, flanger, phaser, scratch effects and much more.

The delay signal is fed to two high-quality multimode filters, and then routed back to the delays with adjustable feedback and cross-feedback knobs. Per-channel phase inversion is provided to create jaw-dropping flanger and phasing effects.

Finally, you get all the usual FabFilter goodies: perfectly tuned knobs, MIDI Learn, Smart Parameter Interpolation for smooth parameter transitions, extensive help with interactive help hints, AltiVec and SSE optimization, and much more!
