rainbowrandom the ambrazier

The ambrazier has three 8bit digital delays on it. The first one can be tuned to period lengths from one second to 20 seconds. The other two have a wider range, because they repeat only in multiples of the first eight bit delay, using a special analog phase lock technique. So you can create interesting phasing phrases that interlock with the rhythm of the "main" delay. You can tweak each delay with a knob to repeat only briefly, or you can "highlight" parts of the phrase by turning up its feedback. You can also pause the delay and repeat smaller sections, and do microscopic surgery. Putting sound into the delays is a unique because you do it "dynamically". The envelope you apply over sounds will only fully affect the sound already in the delay when it is fully up. Otherwise, you can layer sounds or gradually sweep sounds in and eventually push the other ones out. Each sound has its own two part automatic envelope generator, as well as a knob to make your own envelopes with. There are three synthesizers onboard: -a chaotic oscillator can do sine waves to noise, from bubbly garble to high stxtstixstcxtsc -a resonant filtered saw wave can do really low bell rings to high pitched cat sounds -a digital noise generator can do low "obviously digital" noise to high swishes. In addition, there's a convenient xlr in jack, for your dynamic microphones, and a line in to sample other sources with. You can apply the same types of envelopes over these as the other sources. And you can also insert silence or delete sound.
