01Overview

Spaced Out is built for sending drums, instruments and vocals into spacious, atmospheric textures. Baby Audio describes it as a one-stop solution for wet effects, with its reverb and echo sections combined in a single interface. A central mixer joystick morphs between the echo and reverb sections and the dry signal, and a Generate function creates new effect configurations at the click of a button. The developer says the design is inspired by vintage space echo units, updated for modern processing.

Echo and Reverb Engine Sound Controls

The Echoes section uses a 16-step delay sequencer synced to the DAW tempo, with Straight, 2x, Dotted and Triplet modes. Intensity controls how the sequencer behaves through sustain and feedback. Dimension offers Off, Ultra-Wide and Motion modes, and Texture adds Clean, Wonky Tape, Lofi and Hazy options. A Reverse switch flips the delay playback, and analog-modeled low and high pass filters shape the echo tone.

The Space section pairs a reverb with an X-Y joystick that morphs between reverb length and modulation behavior. It includes four programs (Vacuum, Small Space, Medium Space and Outer Space), pre-delay from 0 to 250 milliseconds, and a Stardust control that adds a sustained shimmer to the reverb tail. Mellow applies dual low and high end dampening, Clean-Up feeds an altered dry signal into the reverb for a less dense response, and Width sets the stereo spread from wide to mono.

Central Mixer and Workflow

The central mixer is where the echo and reverb sections come together. Its joystick blends between the Echoes and Space signals and the wet and dry balance. Lift-Off glues the wet signals with a combination of compression, mid-side processing and EQ. Ducker reduces the wet signal when the dry signal is playing, and Ducker Sync locks it to the DAW BPM for a pumping four-on-the-floor effect.

Generate is a musically tuned randomizer for creating new effect configurations quickly, which suits producers looking for starting points. The plugin window can be resized fully and offers light and dark color schemes. Version 1.0.2 added a wet-lock feature, so you can browse presets or randomize the effect without changing the overall wet and dry balance.
