Use it to create lush chorused effects, tape-like flanging, and echoes that drift gently in pitch. Modulate - Like the original hardware, PrimalTap includes a VCO (voltage controlled oscillator) section that lets you add variation and motion to your echoes. This is an emulation of the old Prime Time units - back in the early 80s the memory needed for the delay circuit was really expensive, so the designers cleverly let you choose longer delay times at the expense of audio quality. Multiply - In PrimalTap, the Multiply control doubles the delay time and halves the sample rate with each turn of the rotary switch.

Whether you're looking for a studio delay that's full of 80s character, or a performance tool that responds to knob tweaking with mind-bending sounds, PrimalTap is a must! In true Soundtoys fashion, some of the unique features of the original hardware has been evolved and enhanced to give you even more control and creative possibilities. Like the original hardware, PrimalTap is a hybrid of digital and analog sound - it packs a surprising amount of grit, vibe, and character for a digital delay. PrimalTap is an emulation and re-imagining of the unique sound and features of the Prime Time delay, a classic digital delay with some powerful performance and sound design capabilities. Modeled retro dual delay with 'freeze' for lo-fi pitch warped loops and delays. Baritone Horns, Euphoniums, and Alto Horns.Speakers - Speakers & Tweeters Component.Little PrimalTap lets you use it as another layer of sonic color, and even opens the door for synthesizer type sounds. It's ok to let it get out of control, unlike the old days where you could blow your speakers (or your ears) if you didn't stay on top of the feedback. Oh, and we doubled the massive 256ms of delay time from the original (128ms if you had the non-expanded one) to 512ms so you've got some serious looping power if you need it. Yes, the Feedback can go infinite, and do everything from classic delay style looping to old school sci-fi space noise. The Feedback and Input drive tie it all together to allow for sounds just not found on any of the 'normal' delay plug-ins.

The Adjust knob creates pitch shifts, chorus, or flange when moved. The Multiply knob supplies extra delay time that has drastic tonal changes with each increase.

On this little beast, turning knobs is where it's at and that's how you get to hear all the oddities it can create. And it's just the kind of weird that we love. In an attempt to get more out of the technology (and probably stay under budget) it had a feature called Multiply that halved the sample rate each time the delay was doubled. The Prime Time was used by a wide variety of artists back in the 80's (that was it's prime, heh) for rich guitar delay, chorus, flange and such, and it did a great job with those things but the really unique character of it's sound came from one of it's limitations. Don't be fooled by it's simple interface, Little PrimalTap lets you unleash your creative urges to echo, loop, warp, distort, mangle, or create cacophonous cascades of otherworldly sounds. Inspired by the classic Prime Time* from 1978, Little PrimalTap captures the highly distinctive sonic imprint of this quirky, and well-loved (by those in the know) vintage digital delay.
