03In depth

Echo and Reverb Sound and Character

Lofi Space combines a saturated delay with a spring or plate reverb. Waves describes the reverb as having a twisted, metallic quality, which suits sounds that need to stand out rather than sit quietly in the background.

The delay can be tuned for rhythmic repeats, and adjustable feedback lets you control how many repeats build up. Ping-pong delay can be switched on or off, so you can place echoes across the stereo field or keep them centered. A stereo slimmer is included for a more vintage sound, and highpass and lowpass filters let you shape the timbre of the wet signal.

Controls and Workflow

The Mix knob sets the balance between dry and processed sound, and the reverb and delay each have their own independent controls. Decay for the reverb ranges from 0.5 to 20 seconds, and delay time syncs to BPM or DAW tempo when you want echoes locked to the groove.

Waves also highlights sound design as a use for the plugin. Feeding in pink noise and adjusting the controls is one suggested way to explore its effects.
