Empress ZOIA Patch Demo: "Alterneath"

Описание: Alterneath: A crystalline (pre-)delay smeared into a cavernous, ominously modulated reverby wash. Inspired by the EQD Afterneath.

It's full stereo in/out, main controls are Feedback (which freezes/self-oscillates around max), Drag (a general time parameter), Diffuse (which smears out the delay taps into), Dampen (stereo filtering to accentuate the plucky highs or bring out the rumbling lows), and Mix (which goes full wet, which is very nice). There's also an asymmetrical, glacially slow modulation (controls on second page, you see me jumping back and forth a few times), which I think adds a nice haunting vibe to it all.

Left stomp is activate/bypass and has flexi-switching (short press = latching, long press = momentary). Middle stomp 'alternates' between the Red or Green values (you can tweak the transition times from 'slow pitch dives' to 'zippy space warbles'.. In the demo it's somewhere in the middle). Right stomp activates the modulation.

I've built this about a year ago now, but recently updated some of my old patches so I thought I'd make some quick demos.
Here I'm playing some looped guitar (1st half) and some guitar/singing bowl drone (2nd half) through. I really like how the 'plucks' and scraping sounds seem to float on top of the droney lower end here! Quite proud of this one :)
