#StudioEquipment - 4ms DLD Dual Looping Delay Module (black) (4ms Company) ~ Lurid House Live

The Dual Looping Delay (DLD), designed by 4ms and Gary Hall, is an advanced audio processor for creative synthesis. Not a tape or analog emulation but a modern crystal-clear digital delay, the DLD combines features of delay, looping, and sample-tight synchronization for powerful and dynamic sound capture and modification. The DLD is designed to integrate seamlessly with modular timebase and sequencing devices such as the 4ms Quad Clock Distributor (QCD), etc.

What is a "Looping Delay"?
Modern looping devices grew directly from hardware digital delays of the late 70s and early 80s. A looping delay, modelled on units such as the classic Lexicon PCM42, has the very long storage times associated with dedicated looping, but without triggered record and playback functions.
By default, a looping delay records and plays continuously, though recording can be suspended at any time with Infinite Repeat. Sustain of delays and loops is mainly accomplished with regeneration, allowing an organic, evolving approach to sound creation as new material replaces old, more or less gradually. The 4ms Dual Looping Delay also provides advanced clock input and output facilities that allow for locking delayed and looped material with sequencers and rhythmic devices.

New features in firmware version 5:

Ping Lock for each channel
Quantized Inf / Rev / Time Change Mode
24-bit audio (selectable with a jumper)
Reverse and Inf Hold can be toggled with gates or triggers
Delay Feed knob can be selected to be audio or linear taper
Runaway DC at high feedback settings (e.g. resonant delays) is eliminated
Auto-Muting now has a 1ms attack and decay
Cross-fade Time (CFT) for splices is now variable (set in System Mode from 0ms to 500ms)
Selection of External Clock De-jittering algorithms to allow the DLD to sync with many types of external clocks
Exiting Infinite Hold plays through, without restarting loop
