TipTop Audio Time Fabric Pitch Shift Overview
Manipulate the fabric of time with the Tiptop Audio Time Fabric, a pitch-shifting cartridge with 8 expressive algorithms, custom designed for the Z-DSP Eurorack effects module. The effects uses a technique called rotating-tape-head delay lines, named after pioneering tape-based experiments in Germany in the 1960s. The tape heads move at speeds independent of the tape playback path and two heads are crossfaded to make a continuous output capable of beautiful pitched delay effects, harmonization, and smooth reverbs.
At a Glance
- These pitch-shifting algorithms are much like the earliest digital pitch shifters released. Sounds similar to the Eventide H910, AMS 15-80 (with pitch board), and Publison DHM 89 can be achieved.
- These programs are intended more for pure effects rather than the complex multiple harmony lines that later devices and plug-ins became known for producing.
- Chords can easily be made from single VCOs using the Interval programs on the card.
- Using a VCO to clock the Z-DSP can result in complete chaos from the delay lines, where pitch shifting emerges, creating great and unexpected new sounds.
- Modulating the stereo pair of analog VC-Feedback lines animate the time and distance of the pitch shift, and open up these algorithms for additional control from CV and audio signal alike.
