Echoes of the previous, current and future
Valhalla Delay is our tackle basic and trendy delay and echo models. Tape echo, BBD, old-school digital, pitch shifting – we’ve acquired you coated. ValhallaDelay gives the classics, and expands them into new dimensions, with the distinctive Ratio and Quad delay kinds, the Ghost mode (which provides frequency shifting), and a strong diffusion part that may create something from smeared echoes to ethereal reverbs. Set the controls for the guts of the solar with ValhallaDelay!

ValhallaDelay Up to date to 2.5.0. New Mode: RichPitch!

We’re completely happy to announce the discharge of the ValhallaDelay 2.5.0 replace. The massive information: the introduction of the RichPitch mode!

ValhallaDelay: RichPitch Mode

The RichPitch mode combines a pitch-shifted delay sign with a lush, detuned delay sign. The pitch-shifted and detuned alerts share the identical general delay time. The PITCH Shift knob controls the pitch shift in semitones, whereas the PITCH Detune impacts each the pitch-shifted and detuned alerts.

The Age management in most different ValhallaDelay modes has been changed in RichPitch by the PitchMix management. PitchMix, as its title suggests, controls the combo of pitch-shifted and detuned alerts. With PitchMix at 0%, solely the detuned sign comes by. A PitchMix worth of 100% leads to solely pitch-shifted alerts within the output. PitchMix at 50% creates an equal mixture of detuned and pitch-shifted alerts. You get the thought.

PitchMix: Easy But Highly effective
It seems that having a combination between detuned and pitch-shifted alerts makes RichPitch a MUCH extra highly effective mode than the earlier pitch-shifting modes in ValhallaDelay. The Pitch, RevPitch and PitchDuck modes all the time have solely the pitch-shifted sign within the output and suggestions loop. This may be an superior sound, however not precisely a refined sound.

The PitchMix management in RichPitch means that you can dial in delays with refined harmonic overtones, reverbs with equal quantities of the unique sign and pitch-shifted alerts, full on loopy pitch-shifting, and every part in between. The PitchMix management can be interactive with the Suggestions management. By turning up Suggestions and turning down PitchMix, you may create an echo that slowly builds in pitch-shifting depth over time, whereas nonetheless retaining the unique pitch of your enter sign.

PitchMix + Diffusion = New Shimmer Reverbs
By turning up the DIFF Quantity management in RichPitch, and adjusting the PitchMix management to style, you may create shimmer reverbs within the RichPitch mode which can be completely different from the opposite ValhallaDelay modes. These new shimmer reverbs are additionally very completely different in nature than ValhallaShimmer, which tends to lean in the direction of “enormous and epic” always. The RichPitch shimmers may be epic, however can be refined or extra strident, relying on the PitchMix setting.

Excessive diffusion quantities, plus longer delays, no suggestions, and PitchMix set to style, can be utilized for purely “feedforward” shimmer sounds. These reverbs have a hard and fast quantity of pitch-shifting in comparison with the enter sign, and the quantity of pitch-shifting doesn’t change over the decay time.

Diffusion, shorter delays, greater suggestions values, and PitchMix set to style, can be utilized for extra “basic” shimmer sounds, the place you may have as little or as a lot pitch-shifting as desired. The pitch-shifted sign will proceed to construct and shift upward as suggestions is elevated, so a small worth of PitchMix can go a good distance.

New SHIMMER Presets folder
The ValhallaDelay 2.5.0 installer ships with a folder filled with SHIMMER presets, which may function a foundation to your explorations of RichPitch, or can be utilized as is. Many of the presets showcase the extra refined aspect of the RichPitch shimmer reverbs, though “refined” might be an inaccurate time period for any shimmer reverb!

Hear RichPitch in motion

We’ve cooked up a number of fast examples, so you may hear what RichPitch is all about. The primary instance is an easy repeating sequence from the Moog Grandmother, run by RichPitch arrange as a dotted eighth notice echo:

At the start, PitchMix is about to 0%. Because the monitor progresses, PitchMix is turned up, bringing an octave up sign into the combo. PitchMix is step by step turned as much as 100%, after which again down for a extra refined octave overtone. The suggestions is turned up close to the tip of the monitor, which exhibits how a refined quantity of PitchMix may be made stronger with suggestions.
